Athens
Occupying the beautifully restored 1882 Deligeorgis Mansion, designed by Ernst Ziller, this gallery made a splash on the local art scene when it opened in 2018. There's usually a couple of different shows a year with contemporary pieces in all media by both international artists and local talents such as Filippos Kavakas and Elias Kafouros.
All art is for sale and galleries can arrange shipping for larger items.
