"A Kytherian Century"

“A KYTHERIAN CENTURY”
Kythera Cultural Association & Kythiraikos Syndesmos, 2006

Joining up with the Kythiraikos Syndesmos (Kytherion Union), the Kythera Cultural Association has just produced its first substantial publication, a 72-page, bilingual Greek/English illustrated monograph entitled A Kytherian Century: Images from the Kythera Photographic Archive, 1890-2006. This beautifully printed book includes 62 full-page photographs in black and white and colour, among them work by historic Kytherian photographers Panayotis Fatseas, Manolis Fatseas and Emmanouil Sofios, but also by distinguished contemporary photographers such as Nikos Panayotopoulos, Yiorgos Depollas and Eleni Maligoura. Other contributors include James Prineas and Kristina Williamson, both of whom have recently completed extensive photographic surveys of island society.

The publication was financed by a European Union grant to the Kytherian Union, while the Cultural Association provided the material and undertook the selection, organisation and design of the book, which was edited by John Stathatos. A Kytherian Century is distributed in Greece by Tetarto Publications, Athens.
