Opening: Saturday 17 February 2024 / 19:00

An interesting comment on issues such as recycling, the fight against waste and the clothing industry runs the costume exhibition under the title “Nea Paralia Nea Pasarela 9: MonoCHROMES”, organised by the Association Friends of Nea Paralia.

Imaginative creations-costumes made only from recyclable materials by 21 creators who participated in the special event on 19 September 2023 next to the Sculpture Garden of Nea Paralia in Thessaloniki, find their place in the Experimental Center for the Arts of MOMus in the port area of the city. 

The starting point of inspiration for the creations was a color in each garment and of course its shades, plus the conceptual artistic movement of the 20th century, characterised by the use of a single color and the absence of representation, with monochrome becoming a way of expression of radicalism for many artists.
