This exhibition is a tribute to the oeuvre of Zizi Makri (born in 1924), a major figure in engraving, mosaic and tapestry.

The exhibition will show pieces inspired by her travels in China in 1956, a series of woodcuts and pastels created using on-site sketches as their starting point and drawing on the visual experiences of that country, with the wealth of inspiration it offers; works that narrate the history, culture, myth, people and society of a country that is changing.
