Greek Pavilion
New York World’s Fair
Flushing Meadows – Corona Park, New York City, USA
The Greek pavilion needed to reflect the Weltanschauung of General Ioannis Metaxas dictatorship, a totalitarian regime with nationalistic and militaristic features (1936–1941). Alexandra and her husband Dimitris had the mission to embody this vision of Greek past conceptualized as myth in their project.
