This magnificent Catholic Church was first inaugurated in 1865 and was dedicated to Dionysios the Areopagite, a disciple of Saint Paul and the first Bishop of Athens. It is one of the jewels of Panepistimiou Avenue along with the Academy of Athens and the National Library buildings. Athenians and visitors alike are always moved by its size, its stained glass windows and its overall beauty. What people do not often get to see is that there is equal beauty to be found in the rear of the building. I was once lucky enough to rent a studio space on Omirou Street, one of the two streets that run along-side of the church. I remember that I always looked forward to that late afternoon hour when the orange sun light washed over the church’s smooth back wall and the leaves of the bitter orange trees that are planted in its shadow took on a deep blue color.

Stathis Petropoulos was born in Athens, Greece in 1972. From a young age he enjoyed spending time with anything that had to do with the creation of art. Drawing, painting and model-making where his favorite pastimes. After high school he attended the prestigious Art Center College of Design and then went on to get his degree in industrial design from Syracuse University in Syracuse, NY. Straight after graduation, he moved to Los Angeles, California where he worked as a designer for two years and then moved back to Athens, Greece to complete his military duties. He then worked for a number of architecture firms, designing furniture and interiors. In 2002, with his brother Vassilis, he founded Vastdesign. The company dealt with the design, production and sales of furniture, lighting and ceramic products for the home. In 2012 Stathis turned his creative focus on illustration and began providing award winning work for the children’s publishing market. In February 2022, his debut picture book ‘Brown and Friends’ was published by Psichogios Publishing, one of Greece’s largest publishing houses. Parallel to his illustration projects Stathis is creating fine art paintings and drawings of landscapes, urban environments and still life, using mediums such as acrylics, oils, watercolors and gouache.
