AK – Galleries near Pyrgos

AK Galleries (AK Art Foundation) is a distinguished art gallery in Santorini featuring the creative legacy of three prominent local artists: Christoforos Asimis, Eleni Kolaitou, and their son Katonas Asimis. The gallery blends a deep respect for Santorini’s natural landscape, its light, architecture, and heritage with contemporary artistic expression. The setting itself is architecturally designed to enhance the experience of viewing art, with indoor and outdoor exhibition spaces harmoniously integrated into the island’s aesthetic.

Highlights:

• Permanent exhibitions of Christoforos Asimis: paintings inspired by Santorini’s landscape, natural light, architecture, and abstract forms.
• Sculptures & jewelry by Eleni Kolaitou, including bronze works, more formalist clay pieces, and works inspired by human and animal figures.
• Works by Katona Asimis, who brings a more abstract / semi-abstract approach—his pieces explore primeval forms of the Cycladic landscape and architecture.
