Flisvos Building & Paleo Faliro Beach
HEAVEN LIVE - 2nd Athens Biennial

Temporary installations are by turns theatrical stages, projection screens and floating platforms, and the positions occupied by spectator and spectacle are interchangeable. The inhabitants and users of this maritime boundary are invited to take an active part in the tailoring of public space. HEAVEN LIVE seeks to stimulate new uses of the Flisvos area, taking place under the sea, in the street or on the rooftops of neighouring buildings, without displacing the existing activities.
