Currently on view at Eden Fine Art Gallery in Mykonos is an exhibition of artist Alec Monopoly’s new series, “$PF Monopoly.” Introducing the show earlier this summer, the gallery held a lively summer party in Nammos Village, complete with swimsuit-clad models and a spray-painted helicopter.
The series includes works depicting characters like Mr. Simpson, Rich Uncle Pennybags, Scrouge McDuck, and Richie Rich surrounded by dollar signs and money-themed elements, lounging on yachts and carrying out the lives of the wealthy. Accompanying the exhibition, the artist also created a larger-than-life-sized floating sculpture of the iconic Monopoly man, which the he spray-painted live during the launch event, just off the shores of Psarou Beach.
