Ο Οικουμενικός Πατριάρχης Βαρθολομαίοςτίμησε με την παρουσία Του τα εγκαίνια της τέταρτης ατομικής έκθεσης ζωγραφικής του εικαστικού Γιώργου Κεβρεκίδη, με τίτλο Πρόσωπα της Πόλης",την Παρασκευή 27 Ιουλίου 2018, στον περίβολο της Εκκλησίας της Παναγίας της Κουμαριώτισσας, στο Νιχώρι του Βοσπόρου.
Η έκθεση πραγματοποιείται κατόπιν πρωτοβουλίας της Κοινότητος Παναγίας Κουμαριωτίσσης Νεοχωρίου, στο πλαίσιο των πολιτιστικών εκδηλώσεων "Θεοτόκεια 2018".
"For me it is a great privilege, same time a challenge and honour to inaugurate this year’s cultural agenda activities, named “Theotokia”, dedicated to Panagia Koumariotissa of Yenikoy. Specific place apart from its religious content is also being connected with a multi functional attraction point, since it has succeeded in hosting on its premises, a variety of significant events, so far, welcoming different originated visitors, paving the way as well for a peaceful and harmonious coexistence among people.
I have been considering myself as an embraced member of Yenikoy’ s community and its warm and hospital hosts, ever since I first time visited the place, more than two years ago. As having mentioned before, I feel attached to this location, more in a spiritual than in a bodial way, coming back again and again for receiving its beneficial presents.
I have been carrying a vision in luggage, ever since I chose to settle to Istanbul. The one allowing myself to recall past memories due to my family origins and life story narratives, visualizing them together with feedback I receive myself, in the present. Tonight exhibition’s opening offers me the chance to share this vision, been finally put on display as a communicative language of my visualized outcome, so far, with you."
