Keramikou 28 (also known as Communitism building[1]) was a social art centere in Athens, Greece—a substantial neoclassical structure located at the heart of the Greek capital in the Metaxurgio[2] district on Keramikou 28 Street. Functioning as a self-managed social center, it drew together a community of national and international artists who relocated to Athens during Documenta 14[3] in the Metaxurgio district.
The metamorphosis of the building into an artists hub elevated its status in the Athenian subculture art scene. It provided a venue for both emerging and established artists to exhibit their work and engage in creative pursuits outsied traditional galleries and museums. The building came to symbolize the vibrant artistic community of the city, hosting a variety of exhibitions, performances, and initiative projects.
In May of 2023, the destiny of Keramikou 28 underwent a significant upheaval when disputes with the property owners surfaced owing to the gentrification of the surrounding area[4]. Consequently, the building was evacuated with the intent of listing it on the real estate market. Presently, Keramikou 28 stands as a symbol of the contemporary art scene in Athens, encapsulating its radical spirit through the myriad exhibitions, performances, and projects that have unfolded within its historic confines.
