I'm not a regular visitor of museums or galleries, but was very curious about this one. I was absolutely impressed by the the international collection of this small gallerie. Also my compliments for the two young ladies who were present as guides. They both were very professional in their explanations of the artworks. I surely recommend this gallery to any visitor of Mykonos.

Incredible collection of mind boggling (in a good way) works, all extremely well brought to life by very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I loved the Maria Callas work and my girlfriend was amazed by the Jeff Robb holograms. Fantastic little place!

Housed in a beautifully simple space where the artwork does the talking. We were greeted by the friendly curators/owners of the gallery who were both charming and full of information about each artist, it was clear they were very passionate about art. Fabulous contemporary art from around the world, we loved it and would recommend visiting this fine gallery space.

My partner and I stumbled across this gallery by chance and were so glad that we did. There was a great variety of art work. The curators (Linda and Andrew) were so knowledgeable and provided us with lots of fascinating information about the works. Despite their clear expertise, they were completely non-judgemental about our ignorance about art and were very patient, warm and welcoming.. It was a lovely experience and it was so nice to do something a bit cultural after a lot of eating, drinking and shopping in Mykonos.

I should give at least 4 stars to the nice collection of Greek artists on display here but my rating is mainly a summary of my whole experience visiting the gallery, which was the most surreal! Gallery is formed of two rooms filled with nice collections of painting, statues and assemblies put together just randomly. You'll find bronze figurine statues randomly scattered around paintings intervened by some installations. Interestingly none of the adjacent ones had any shared subjects or stories to connect them, one'd fell the itch to feng shui the whole thing and create a more welcoming and a little coherent flow to enjoy the works. The most bizarre thing during our visit was the Greek parents flocking the gallery using the paintings and statues as the backdrop to take pictures of their kids!! Sadly none of the art works has any titles, artist name or prices; The worst was the gallery owner seemed not to like the tourist, shouted at one not to follow the example of the Greeks to take pictures, had a couple of [I guess American] senior visitors waiting for hours to tell them the price, so we didn't approach him for info. It didn't feel welcoming but there was some funny moments, felt like an edition of "Fawlty Towers" happening in a gallery :D I was tempted to stay longer for more drama but the gallery owner's attitude made us leave; we didn't want to end our night with some insults!
Tip. We were concerned about authenticity of art works on display so didn't even consider buying any piece; no tags and so much sensitivity against the tourist taking a picture raised the flag for us! Long waits to hear the price made us more concerned too. So do your research before splashing the cash. You might never come back to Mykonos to ask for a refund. Explore your options: there are many artist studios in Cyclades where you could have a lovely chat with the artist [we visited 3 in Santorini, loved all], cut the middle man and pay less for the art work to take home with good memories.

As one of the must see places in Mykonos town I went to rarity gallery to be amazed about modern art. Soon enough a guy who worked there approached me for some helpful notes but suddenly an older man appeared and without any reason stopped the guy and he wanted continue the explanation of the pieces. The other day I went back and the guy wasn't there. Asking in the neighborhood I learned that the owners change stuff like we change underwears. The old men, the owners, with the fake smile using people who need job and they treat them awful! The art there maybe some of that is good but the experience was bad. I hope that kind of people to learn finally a leason!!! Don't go there...don't support them

There happened to be a man there but he wouldn't open the door. They were closed for no apparent reason although posted hours said they were open. He handed us a card and asked us to come back tomorrow. Unfortunately we are on a cruise so that won't be possible.

Do not be fooled by this gallery. They may have some impressive works on show however, I can tell you from first hand experience that they treat their artists very badly. They have no respect for artists and are only interested in money. I was unfortunate enough to get involved with the gallery and sent them two pieces from England - some beautiful flower works made from cutlery that took me months to make. The works were not looked after and one of them returned to me was in such bad condition (not damage in transportation) that I had to throw it away on its return. It looked like it had been left out in the rain - it was rusty and covered in dirt. In short, if you like art and support artists do not put one foot through their door. I have exhibited in many galleries all over the world and these are by far the worst dealers I have ever met. No doubt the gallery will respond to this with more lies.

I recommend this gallery if you love art in all its different frames and forms.
The beautiful lady and handsome man inside are always ready to explain the idea behind or the inspiration for every work you are interested in.
Very interesting art in a very cool location.
Loved it!

This gallery is impressive! First, it is right in the core of Mykonos' downtown, so simply the experience of passing by while watching the city’s lovely white & blue architecture is amazing! Moreover, if you enter this gallery, you will find friendly staff that will tell you all you need to know about the stunning masterpieces they have. And these pieces are truly amazing! Not boring art at all, but very original hyper-realistic pieces you need to see!

I'll be visiting from a cruise ship on October 30, 2017 and wondered if the gallery would still be open.

The gallery has no fee to browse and admire. The art is for sale. It's a quality venue and the prices to take home a piece are in the thousands of euro. Just don't get serious about owning. Unless you're prepared to make a big Rolex level investment.
