Text in griechisch und englisch. – Seltene Werkschau des griechischen Fotografen M. I. Maillis (1914-1999). – „One day my interest began to be roused by reflections and the interplay of colors in the moving waters with the rays of the sun changed into five compositions so perfect that they seemed to be the work of a great master. But then these compositions dissolved and gave way to another theme, equally or even more harmonious than the preceeding one. These countless impressions evolved into hallucinations. I longed to immobilize these hallucinations and to play with them. So the sensitive photographic lens began to record and captivate each movement in the flow of time – an orgy of patterns and colors. For me, photography became transformed into painting without my intervention. Nature is a great creator – this time it has revealed to us one of its countless secrets – in its capacity as an artist“ (S. 212). – Sehr gutes und sauberes Exemplar.
