The Goulandris Museum of Contemporary Art is a modern art museum in Eratosthenous Street, Pangrati, Athens, Greece, opened in October 2019. It displays many of the works amassed by shipowner Basil Goulandris and his wife Elise Karadontis, who died in 1994 and 2000 respectively, with an art collection valued at US$3 billion.
It is housed in a 1920s neoclassical mansion with a ten-storey new extension (five of which are below ground).[1] The building has a total surface area of 7,250 sq.m. and the exhibition areas cover a total of five floors; four above ground with a surface area of 1,124 sq.m., where the permanent collection is housed, and one below ground, with a surface area of 530 sq.m., which hosts temporary exhibitions of Greek and foreign artists.[citation needed]
The building also houses a museum shop and a café-restaurant.[citation needed] The floors below ground hosts a library with around 4,500 books, a children's workshop, and a 190-seat amphitheatre.[citation needed]
