Questions & Answers about Η έκθεση αυτή μου δείχνει πώς βλέπει ο ζωγράφος την πόλη του τη νύχτα σε κάθε έργο.

Why is it Η έκθεση αυτή and not Αυτή η έκθεση? What is the difference?

Both Η έκθεση αυτή and Αυτή η έκθεση are grammatically correct and mean this exhibition.

The difference is mainly nuance and emphasis:

• Αυτή η έκθεση
  – This is the more neutral, most commonly taught pattern: demonstrative + article + noun.
  – It simply identifies which exhibition you’re talking about: this exhibition (not another one).

• Η έκθεση αυτή
  – This is article + noun + demonstrative.
  – This order is often a bit more emphatic or stylistic in modern Greek, and is quite common in written language.
  – It can feel a bit like saying “this exhibition in particular”.

In everyday speech you’ll hear both, but Αυτή η έκθεση is slightly more basic/neutral, while Η έκθεση αυτή can sound a bit more pointed or literary, depending on context.

What does μου in μου δείχνει mean? Is it my exhibition or shows me?

Here μου is not possessive (my). It is an indirect object pronoun meaning to me / for me.

• μου δείχνει = (it) shows me or (it) shows to me

So:

• Η έκθεση αυτή μου δείχνει…
  = This exhibition shows me…

If μου were possessive (my), it would normally come before a noun:

• η έκθεσή μου = my exhibition
