disclaims any responsibility.

Nobody would have been aware of the show in the Palace section housing the Municipal Gallery of Corfu, next to the Museum of Asian Art, if a video was not uploaded on social media.

The show took place in the early morning hours of Friday, May 23, and it looks as if the “organizers” of the spectacle set up their equipment undisturbed, while a crowd of people was cheering and having fan in the center of the old town of Corfu.

Who gave permission for this apparently commercial show? Did anyone requested for permission, at all?

The Municipality of Corfu and the Museum of Asian Art are the competent services for the Old Palaces in Corfu, the Culture Ministry said in a statement on the scandal on Friday.

The Ministry described as “********” what happened at the site of the Old Palaces of Corfu and stated that the competent services, namely the Municipality of Corfu and the Museum of Asian Art of Corfu, should file a lawsuit against anyone responsible for the incident.

“This was done arbitrarily, it is offensive to the place,” Deputy Mayor in charge of Culture at the Municipality of Corfu, Konstantinos Vousolinos, told media.

“We will file a lawsuit. Wasn’t there a single citizen to pick up the phone? The Municipality doesn’t have a night guard at this point. The area belongs to the Ministry of Culture. Obviously the guard who is inside the Museum of Asian Art didn’t notice,” Vousolinos said speaking to SKAI TV.

He stressed that neither a permit for the show was requested nor was it given. He added that it remained unclear whether the photo shooting was part of a commercial production or organized by a group of tourists, “who appeared to be foreign,” as he noted. He said that the show lasted about an hour and attracted a crowd of onlookers due to its proximity to a popular nightlife district.

This incident caused a lot of reactions, as the old town of Corfu is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The building in question was built in 1819.
