The Aixoni Theater is located on the Athens mountain of Hymettos. It is situated at the entrance of an old quarry. The project begun in 1984 and lasted for two years. Originally the quarry was unevenly leveled by colored rock formations. A big hole of 40 meters in length, and 7m. depth was picked for the sculpture site. Reinforced concrete was used for the construction and fragmented marble pieces along with locally found stones for the leveling of three stages. These stages have alternative and flexible uses and can house any kind of open-air performance or exhibition. The stages are symmetrically surrounded by the seating areas – made of large rocks and pieces of granite -, water fountains, locally grown plants and trees.
