There are many contemporary sculptures scattered around Athens that we normally miss and continue walking right past them. Modern or classical they are of high artistic value and some connected to the history of Greece. The statue of Palamas right outside the cultural centre of Athens municipality preserves so well the image and I dare to say even the poetry of Palamas in such a simple way. It's such a pitty that along with most works of Art out in the open this one too is deteriorating under the harsh atmospheric conditions of Athens.
