Onassis Ready

The Onassis Foundation’s factory of experiences, housed in the industrial area of Rentis, opens its doors with renewed energy to welcome new audiences and the fresh initiatives of the 2025–26 season.

Starting in October 2025, a major exhibition dedicated to the work of Juergen Teller will illuminate the long, creatively restless journey of one of the most influential photographers of our time. The space becomes a field of live dialogue with Teller’s disarming language and bold aesthetic.

In April 2026, Onassis Stegi’s longest-running electronic music festival, Borderline, returns to Onassis Ready. With renewed intensity and unexpected sonic materials, the festival will re-tune body and sound to industrial rhythms.

In May 2026, Onassis Ready transforms into a stage of the future with the ONX Showcase, a four-day program dedicated to artificial intelligence, art, and research. Four artists and Onassis AiR Fellows participate in a program that looks towards tomorrow in artistic terms.

That same month, Tilda Swinton activates the industrial space with “Ongoing”, an exhibition traveling from Amsterdam to Athens, bringing with it a unique universe of creative collaborations.

Beyond hosting major events, Onassis Ready functions as a space for artistic expression, experimentation, and exploration, welcoming Onassis AiR and Onassis ONX Fellows. The building also houses the Onassis Archive, the first shipping business archive ever assembled in Greece, comprising approximately 1 million documents. At the same time, it serves as a versatile multipurpose venue, open for hire for creation, rehearsals, and other artistic or professional activities.
