When Dolly and Nikos Goulandris began collecting antiquities in the early s, they had no idea than roughly 20 years down the road they would become the founders of an internationally reputable museum which, besides the Goulandris collection, would also become the permanent home for important private collections and donations and would help antiquities to return to Greece. But they always hoped their collection would someday become accessible to the public, so when the first viewing of the collection was held at the Benaki Museum in , the Goulandris couple was open to proposals for international exhibitions: The new wing of the National Gallery in Washington DC opened with an exhibition on the collection. A worldwide tour of the collection followed in the course of the next four years. The donation of the collection to the Goulandris Foundation and the opening of the Museum of Cycladic Art in Athens came as a natural extension of the collection’s public outing. The museum grew rapidly and held a succession of important exhibitions on Cycladic and ancient Greek art but also on modern and contemporary art (exhibitions on Moore, Picasso and Dali, among others) especially in respect

One of the world’s great art collections

Officially called the Basil and Elise Goulandris Foundation, the new museum has been in the making for over 30 years. Its art collection (estimated to be worth $3 billion) is one of the world’s most valuable private collections amassed during the second half of the 20th century. Today, Basil and Elise’s trove of painting, sculpture, drawings, objects and furniture has finally found a permanent home, where visitors can admire rare treasures by seminal artists like Cézanne, Van Gogh, Chagall, Monet, Miró, Picasso, Pollock and many others.

The creation of a museum was a lifelong mission for Basil and Elise Goulandris—a shipowner couple who spent their time jet-setting between Switzerland, New York and the Mediterranean. Basil Goulandris was a member of a famous dynasty of shipowners from the Greek island of Andros, which includes many patrons of the arts. This explains why there are so many Goulandris museums in Athens: the Museum of Cycladic Art was founded by Nicholas (Basil’s twin brother) and Dolly Goulandris, while the Goulandris Museum of Natural History owes its name to founders Angelos and Niki Goulandris.

Since then, it has significantly expanded and now hosts one of the most comprehensive private collections of Cycladic art in the world, featuring representative samples of the world-renowned Cycladic marble figurines.

The nucleus of the Museum’s Cycladic Art Collection is its collection of marble figurines depicting naked human figures that fascinate the visitor with their simplicity and abstractness, elements that have inspired some of the 20th-century’s greatest artists, such as Konstantin Brancusi, Amedeo Modigliani, Alberto Giacometti, Barbara Hepworth, and Henry Moore.

The Museum’s permanent collections encompass Cycladic, Ancient Greek, and Ancient Cypriot artifacts, testimonies to the civilizations that flourished in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean from the 4th millennium BC to circa the 6th century AD.

The temporary exhibitions of the Museum of Cycladic Art focus on archaeology, modern and contemporary art, with the aim of acquainting the public not only with antiquity but also with important 20th and 21st century artists. These exhibitions explore the connections between ancient cultures and modern and contemporary artistic creations. The Museum has in
