Onassis Collection

The Onassis Collection includes works by major Greek and international artists, representing a wide range of artistic movements and periods set in dialogue with one another. The thrilling, non-linear and unpredictable world of the Onassis Collection highlights the dynamic relationship the past has with the “here and now”. Within this world, one can discover works by Domenikos Theotokopoulos (El Greco) and Jannis Kounellis, Auguste Rodin and Yannoulis Chalepas; works by Konstantinos Parthenis, Nikolaos Gyzis, and Nikiforos Lytras as well as Maria Papadimitriou, Jannis Varelas, and Thanassis Totsikas; works by Etel Adnan and Robert Wilson alongside pieces by Chryssa, Yiannis Moralis, Nikos Kessanlis, Yannis Tsarouchis, and Nikos Engonopoulos. The Onassis Collection is also being enriched by new commissions of digital works that spotlight emerging technologies and forms of expression and spark debates on major issues of our times, such as human rights, democracy, equality, and the climate crisis. The Onassis Foundation platform hosts digital works that test the very boundaries of contemporary art, by such artists as Theo Triantafyllidis and Loukia Alavanou, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige. Art of the “here and now” should be open and accessible to all.
