The BERNIER/ELIADES GALLERY was founded in 1977 in Athens and has since continued working dynamically in the field of contemporary art in Greece. After completing twenty-one years in its old space in Kolonaki, the commercial center of Athens, from January 1999 the gallery is housed in a Neoclassical building in Thission, the historic center of Athens at the foot of the Acropolis. During the gallery's function, Jean Bernier and Marina Eliades have introduced to the Greek public numerous artistic currents, such as Arte Povera, Minimalism, Land and Conceptual Art and the younger generation of American and European artists.

| ON VIEW |

“Upward Downfall (Hoplite)” by Dionisis Kavallieratos is currently on view at the Archaeological Museum of Rhodes as part of Biennale of Contemporary Keramics 2026.

Working across different media, Dionisis Kavallieratos draws on mythology, popular culture, and folk traditions, approaching them through humour, irony, and a sharp sense of critical distance. His work has been exhibited internationally in both solo and group exhibitions, and this year he also participated at the 9th Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Art "everything must change. Radical Intelligence. Saloniki 9".

| ON VIEW |

Visit “SYMMETRIES” by Tony Cragg in Brussels. Rather than treating materials as fixed or passive, Cragg allows them to assume an active role in the making of each sculpture. Bronze, wood, steel, and composite media are pushed beyond their expected qualities, giving rise to forms that appear simultaneously solid and in motion. The result of the combination of rationality and dream-like thought is gravity-defying silhouettes that transcend the merely visual, inviting an exploration of the previously unimagined.

Με βαθιά θλίψη αποχαιρετάμε τον σπουδαίο ιστορικό τέχνης, πολύτιμο συνεργάτη και αγαπημένο μας φίλο, Ντένη Ζαχαρόπουλο.

Η συνεργασία του με τη γκαλερί από την ίδρυσή της το 1977, η επιστημονική αρωγή του, αλλά και η φιλία του μαζί μας σφράγισαν μια ολόκληρη εποχή.

Καλό ταξίδι, Ντένη.

Μαρίνα, Jean και όλη η ομάδα της γκαλερί

| OPENING TOMORROW |

Join us tomorrow for the opening of the first exhibition of Elina Belou, titled “LIFE OF A SUNFLOWER” at Bernier/Eliades Gallery in Athens. Inspired by her childhood in the Pyrenees and by nature’s enduring cycles, the changing seasons, vegetal growth, and shifting skies, Belou’s practice explores processes of transformation through ceramics. She approaches the vessel as a living body, articulating necks, limbs, and curvilinear forms.

The opening will take place in Athens, on Thursday, 1 October 2026, from 18:00 to 21:00, in the presence of the artist.
