In Chicago, or “the city by the lake” a new monster appeared… It came from the lake Lerna in the Argolid, from a far away land called Greece. The offspring of Typhon and Echidna, Lernean Hydra,  a gigantic monster with nine heads -more or less- decided to go travelling to the other side of the globe and  took together a bunch of other friendly monsters from its little homeland. Lernean Hydra, whose heads when cut off, two grow in its place, stands as a reminder of persistence:

“Cutting is easier
Than growing…”

The NationalHellenicMuseum (333 South Halsted Street, Chicago) offered its fantastic building to host the up to now, biggest version of the Greek Monsters exhibition, since a brand new Greek monster was designed especially for the Chicago show! The grand opening took place last Friday and was visited by the wonderful people of Chicago.

The Greek Monsters liked Chicago that much, that they decided to stay until May 2015.
Thank you so much Chicago for the great time and …

Be(a)ware of the Greek Monsters!
