Eugenia Vereli, Cycladic Café Art Project

On the blue-bordered piece, a red animal with pointed ears presses its head against a woman's green face under a green hood, all drawn in oil stick and pastel on fabric. Next to it, a green-bordered piece puts a big blue face beside a pink building topped with a cross.

Those are the two works, Jesters and drummers and Cries of birds on the air like jewels, both from 2025, hung on the wall of the Cycladic Café. The museum links Vereli's fabric-and-clay storytelling to prehistoric wall paintings, and she draws on dreams, mythology, folk art and medieval painting. You see them from the café tables, under the floating sculptural ceiling. Two works: the whole show takes less time than a freddo espresso does in Kolonaki.

Come for a coffee with something to look at, not for an exhibition. The café keeps museum hours, until 20:00 on Thursdays and closed Tuesdays. Enter through the Stathatos Mansion on Vasilissis Sofias and follow the signs.
