A remarkable exhibition then offers you two options.
- Option 1: After two historical exhibitions ('Tutankhamun: Discovering the forgotten pharaoh' and 'Napoleon, beyond the myth'), this time, Europa Expo is presenting an immersive and lighthearted exhibition called 'I Love Japan'. Embark on an exciting journey to discover the different faces of Japan, a country with a rich culture with traces of ancestral traditions. From gastronomy to religion, not forgetting Tokyo, Godzilla, and manga, an immersive journey allows you to explore every corner of the Nippon archipelago.
- Option 2: A retrospective and monographic exhibition presenting the Greek artist Costa Lefkochir awaits you. This is the chance to admire some of the artist's most famous pieces, which chart his career and life in a non-chronological and humanist way. These pieces represent concerns, as well as research, that form a whole. The artist calls upon the creative and artistic talent of everyone during the itinerary, by inviting anyone who is interested to contribute to a common piece which will be published.
