The Alpha Bank Art Collection

The Alpha Bank Art Collection is one of the most important collections held by banks and institutions in Greece. It boasts 5,500 works by Greek artists, including paintings, prints, sculptures, assemblages, and illustrations, covering Greek Art from 1880 to date.

The exhibits of the Art Collection are kept at the Alpha Bank central building. There is no exhibition space per se, however the Collection hosts temporary exhibitions and its doors are always open to researchers, students, scientists and the general public who wish to become acquainted with its works. Some of those works are permanently on display at the Alpha Bank Group branches and companies in Greece and abroad.

In 2005 the first exhibition of the Alpha Bank Art Collection was held at the Benaki Museum. Collaborations and exhibitions at the largest museums in Greece followed: MOMus – Metropolitan Organisation of Museums of Visual Arts, Thessaloniki, Municipal Art Gallery of Larissa G.I. Katsigras Museum, Contemporary Art Museum of Crete, etc.

The Collection has significant cultural and educational activity, forging partnerships with important cultural institutions and museums, and lending works of art for exhibition purposes. Moreover, it edits publications related to the featured works and artists, and it participates in exhibitions, events and sponsorships related to Greek art.
