On December 4, the concluding event for the Greek participation in the 18th International Architecture Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia 2023 took place at the Ministry of the Environment and Energy. The event was held in the presence of the National Commissioner Efthimios Bakoyannis, Secretary General of Spatial Planning and Urban Environment at the Ministry of the Environment and Energy. The exhibition, titled "Bodies of Water," and curated by Costis Paniyiris, Professor at the Department of Architecture of the University of Thessaly, and Andreas Nikolovgenis, Assistant Professor at the Department of Architecture of the University of Ioannina, received acclaim as one of the standout contributions to this year's Biennale.

CHS Greece has contributed as a supporting institution since the inception of the participation. The event brought together not only the curators but also representatives from collaborating and supporting institutions, along with sponsors, who played crucial roles in the success of the Greek participation.
