ART ATHINA

ART - ATHINA is an annual international contemporary art fair that takes place in Athens, Greece. The first ART-ATHINA was organized in 1993, making it one of the oldest contemporary art fairs in Europe.

ART-ATHINA is organized by the Greek Hellenic Art Galleries Association (PSAT) as a way for galleries to showcase their artists and gallery owners to interact and network. The 14th annual event in 2008 attracted over 18,000 visitors.[1] The 2010 exhibition involves 58 galleries from 11 countries.[2]

The fair played a decisive role in the creation of the art market in Greece.[3]
