Guardian published a list with the top 10 new museum openings in 2017, featuring the National Museum of Contemporary Art (EMST) in Athens.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens (EMST) began its operation in 2000. Permanent home of the Museum is the former Fix brewery on Syngrou Ave., the reconstruction of which was completed in February 2014. The building occupies 18.142 sqm. on a 3.123 sqm surface.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As the article points out, \u201cThe reconstruction of EMST has been quite a tale, with over a decade financial and bureaucratic setbacks. Still, in October 2016 it was finally ready for a soft launch, inaugurating the temporary exhibition space with the show Urgent Conversations: Athens\u2013Antwerp in its newly reconstructed home in the old Fix brewery. The permanent collection is pegged to be un<\/span>veiled in autumn 2017, when the museum is expected to finally open in its entirety.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Museum’s collection is formed around a very important nucleus of works by Greek and foreign artists, such as Stephen Antonakos, Constantin (Dikos) Byzantios, Vlassis Caniaris, Chryssa, Mona Hatoun, Gary Hill, Emily Jacir, Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, Nikos Kessanlis, Jannis Kounellis, Shirin Neshat, Lucas Samaras, Costas Tsoclis, Bill Viola, a.o, which is constantly enriched.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
