I think that what you're doing is definitely offering a service to so many people and letting them explore various forms of creativity and how you can use that creativity to enhance the world. I don't mean it in a highfalutin way, but I think that art does influence the world on many different levels. On a daily level, but on a more global level.

Academic Director of the Benaki Museum

If we are to use a few words to characterise the Benaki, we can say it is the only museum in the world that presents Greek culture from the history to the 21st century, and culture seen holistically, so not just fine art, but also applied arts and historical documents, literature, photography, and architecture. It’s a very inclusive perception of art, but also in relation to global art and world cultures.
