(from the 2019 essay This strange, intoxicating “Almost Nothing” by Yorghos Tzirtzilakis) In discussing the work of Cristos Gianakos one can only start from reconsidering a question: what is the current meaning of that form of contemporary art most people call ‘minimal-ism’? In this case minimalism does not stop at a sketchy, formalized, rational version or at a belated celebration of ‘littleness’; instead it goes on to a dispersion which is, in fact, in tune with the character of our times and our culture.”
