Exhibits relating to the life and work of “the inventor of the 20th century” Nikola Tesla will be on show at the Kotsanas Museum of Ancient Greek Technology in downtown Athens (Pindarou 6 & Akadimias, Kolonaki) until January 2020, in an exhibition entitled “Nikola Tesla: the man from the future,” ANA reports.
The exhibition, based on items from the permanent collection of the Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade, explores the life of the eccentric Serb-American genius who was responsible for inventions as fundamental to our lives as alternating current, the Tesla coil, the induction motor, radio waves, and three-phase electric current.
The exhibition, which opened its doors to the public on October 1, seeks to teach but also hopes to inspire visitors and create the incentives that will lead to tomorrow’s inventors,” Mitsobonou said. Based on the comments in the visitors’ book, the public’s response has been enthusiastic and it makes a perfect destination for families, with exhibits that appeal to both young and old.
