PCAI is excited to partner with Art Explora Festival 2025 presenting Hail (Χαίρε), part of the PCAI art collection, by director and visual artist Eva Stefani. The Art Explora Festival museum boat will sail to Greece for the very first time and dock at the port of Piraeus, from 3 to 12 October 2025 for 10 days of free art and cultural experiences. Free and open to everyone, the Art Explora Festival is a traveling festival that sails across seas and oceans aboard the world’s first museum boat. It offers innovative artistic and cultural experiences through a programme of immersive visual, sound, and virtual reality experiences presented on board the museum boat, as well as exhibitions quayside, and in a range of venues in the host cities. The live programme — including performances, concerts, dance, installations, talks, and workshops — is curated by Greek curator Katerina Tselou, who notes: “In Piraeus — a mesh of cultures, bodies, and maritime routes — the Mediterranean emerges as a multilayered space of experience, tension, and imagination. Personal and political histories, ecological concerns, and female perspectives come together to form an explosive, polyphonic landscape, where art becomes an act of poetry and resistance“.
