English: Standing 12 meters tall (nearly 30 feet), Dromeas (The Runner) cuts a dashing figure at Megalis tou Genous Scholi square near the Hilton Athens Hotel on Vassilissis Sofias Avenue. Created by Costas Varotsos in 1994, Dromeas originally stood at Omonia Square, but was moved when construction commenced on the underground metro station there. Concerns that shakes and vibrations from subway building activity could damage the sculpture prompted his relocation to a triangular public square close to the Canadian Embassy.
