Greece’s London embassy hosting art show inspired by Homer’s Odyssey

The Greek Embassy in London is hosting an art exhibition titled 'Odyssey – Imaginary Cartographies' by Greek artist Markos Kampanis, showcasing a contemporary visual interpretation of Homer’s Odyssey. The exhibition runs until July 3 and features a four-volume artist’s book created by painting over a 15th-century manuscript of Homer’s work held by the British Library. The display coincides with the upcoming release of Christopher Nolan’s film adaptation of the epic, increasing public interest in the ancient tale. Ambassador Yiannis Tsaousis praised The Odyssey as a cornerstone of world civilization during the opening. The exhibition had previously been displayed at the Benaki Museum in Athens in 2025. Admission is free, though advance registration is required.
