Roller-skater by Yiannis Gaitis, 1982 - Marika Kotopouli Museum Zografou

 

 

Marika Kotopouli Museum



The museum was inaugurated in May 1990. It is a functional museum of modern art, able to house important exhibitions. The building, erected in 1926, was the holiday home of the great Greek theatre actress Marika Kotopouli. During the German occupation, the house was requisitioned by the Germans. Later it housed the police station of the area.

With the support of the Association of Greek Actors, the Municipality of Zografou restored the house, which was classified as a listed building. It now shows its distinctive architecture and its beautiful interiors where high quality cultural activities are held today.

This museum does not exhibit objects related to Kotopouli. The building itself is of value as a museum. For the time being it welcomes temporary exhibitions while it offers a permanent home to the artistic collection of Constantine Ioannides. Top
