About
Us
“Talking Art” is a project initiated in 2013 by Shani Werner and “Athens Art Tours” is it’s new baby brother – fresh in the Athens contemporary art scene.
As a group of dedicated art experts from different backgrounds, the thing we do best is the mediation of contemporary art to the public. We strive to “talk art” as much as we can as we believe that understanding art is also a way to understand the place in which it was made.
We offer private art, architecture and urban culture tours leaded by experienced guides from various fields – art critiques, curators, street artists, architects and more.
If you love art, if you are moved and inspired by it, you are in the right place.
