John Charles Angelopoulos

When the visionary mind of John Charles Angelopoulos meets the canvas, Greek mythology and religion are transformed into surreal, figurative images.  You will find his work both thought provoking and entertaining.  Greek heritage is omnipresent when viewing John’s art.  His lineage was ingrained by his mentor, Robert J. Andrews, who is himself an internationally acclaimed iconographer working within the Greek Orthodox Church.  At a young age, John’s malleability was benefited by their travels to Greece.  Subsequently, the knowledge brought from the old world was used to create mosaic images under the tutelage of Robert.  This was paramount in the development of John’s style.  His work with ecumenical mosaics was the basis for a series of paintings and murals in a “faux mosaic” genre which can be seen in seacoast residences as well as Portsmouth and Boston restaurants.  John’s work continues to evolve, however his connection to Greek civilization remains in equilibrium.  The efficacious art of  John Charles Angelopoulos is not for the timid or mundane.  It is for the avant-garde.  It is art for the Bohemian, those with imagination and intellect.
