The selection of the works has been made by two curators - the one of the touring exhibition and another from each host country. No need to mention that the aesthetic result is different each time. At the Thessaloniki Museum of Photography, along with the works of the original 'body', there will be presented works of the Greek photographers: Manolis Baboussis, Venia Bechraki, Athina Chroni, Christina Dimitriadis, Pavlos Fysakis, Georgios Katsaggelos, Panos Kokkinias, Evangelia Kranioti, Eleni Maligoura, Eleni Mouzakiti, Lia Nalbantidou and George Prinos.

[03] KKE leader in PatrasThe Communist Party of Greece (KKE) needs to fight with more determination in order to better reach the popular strata, KKE leader Aleka Papariga said on Tuesday night, speaking at a gathering in the western port city of Patras.The topics of the gathering were the results of the recent European Parliament elections, political developments and the KKE's position. Commenting on the high abstention percentage in the Euroelections, Papariga noted that the abstention was "expressed with a political background, disgruntlement but also with the delusion that the parties will change". On the KKE's showing, she said that the Euroelections outcome was positive for the party while, addressing herself to the party's cadres, members and friends, she urged them to be prepared, because "the time of national elections is near at hand". Papariga further criticised ruling New Democracy (ND) and main opposition PASOK of having lost their ability to convince, but having succeeded in passing on the perception that their policy is the only way.
