The National Gallery of Art, founded ninety years ago, was finally inaugurated on May 17. A section of the gallery has been open for several years, but the new museum provides a home for the gallery’s permanent collection which has long been stored in various warehouses in Athens.

The highlight of the past month’s art scene was Mytaras’s exhibition of canvases at the Zoumboulakis Galleries, aptly complemented by the simultaneous showing of drawings by the artist from 1954 to 1976.
