Koukaki, Athens

"I enjoy visiting the National Museum of Contemporary Art when I want a change of pace from ancient history. The exhibitions are diverse and thought-provoking, offering a new perspective on Greek culture and society."
Exhibitions about animals’ rights; an installation of World Wars artillery shells converted into house plant holders; dimensional, out-the-box sculptural pieces; film; dance; and the spoken word…The National Museum of Contemporary Art holds the space for contemporary art and visual culture. Explore local and contemporary works, with special emphasis on the 21st century. This encompasses paintings, drawings, engravings, sculpture, mixed media installations and constructions, photography, performance art, and videography. It’s free entrance on Thursday nights.
