"ARTOPOS" THE WEB ART BRAND NAME, MOST ADMIRED!



http://www.artopos.org/


Though the blog ARTOPOS was built since a long time, it is the first time I use it today, after having realised that it will take more time than I thought, to revive the web site artopos.(org)  
In 1996 together with Dimitris Skoufis (1953-2007) and a group of young designers, we uploaded the first bilingual website for Greek art, the artopos.(org), that became a high traffic and numerous awards one. A few years later, the orthodox church of Greece created  her own artopos. (gr) a website for art and culture as well, now online with the new brand "Artopos". Big mess!
After the death of Dimitris, I raised artopos in hypnosis, http://artopos.org/main-gr.html keeping it online. However, as far as I know, art researchers still refer to the original artopos (org) for information.
  In 2012, an attempt was made plundering (hucking) of our site, using the content and the title in order to be identified "properly" with us "enriching" the original brand name, with the name of the hucker (it is still online). I asked help from the Office of Electronic Crimes, and thanks for their help I recuperated the content of http://artopos.org/main-gr.html.
Actually, I start trying to recast historical website's content offline, with the hope to find the budget to upgrade it online!
