The Museum of Cycladic Art holds one of the most complete collections of Cycladic Art in the world showcasing the famous marble figurines of the 3rd millennium BC that have influenced several twentieth and twenty-first century artists, such as Brancusi, Modigliani, Giacometti, Hepworth and Moore.<\/p>\n

Committed to inspiring and benefiting multiple communities, the \u039cuseum has made its mark in the city of Athens, within and beyond its walls.\u00a0 The Museum of Cycladic Art is a non-profit legal entity under private law, supervised by the Ministry of Culture. It receives no state funding, and its collections belong to the Greek State.<\/p>\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n
