We’ve worked with our partner Art Studio Demetz of Italy on several original bronze statues honoring prominent Greeks and Greek Americans, most of them commissioned by the Foundation of Hellenism in America. We’ve written previously about our statues of labor leader Louis Tikas and cancer research pioneer Dr. Georgios Papanikolaou.
