A publication in the series ‘ Contemporary Greek artists” by the newspaper TA NEA
Christos Bokoros expresses in the most concise and comprehensive way the generation of creators that appears on the Greek art scene in the 80’s. His work proposes deeper values, approaches issues related to the existential agony of the man, speaks in the timeless and universal language of symbols, opposes the topical, confesses and refers to something higher.

Golden flames that flicker in the candle light and on the edge of the candles like real ones, as they evaporate into black smoke…Properly fermented rituals with color, discipline and evocative power… Olive trees with golden-green leaves that capture the energy of the light below, and the soil, from where the most beautiful flowers emerge, colorful and cool, nourished perhaps by the bones of some guerrillas who were lost in the forests of Viniani… The whole work of the painter Christos Bokoros exudes sanctity, mystical atmosphere, effortless symbolism that draws on respect for matter, the citizenship and the memory. It is consumed in an attempt to make visible what exists and is invisible…
