Works of Art
The bulk, quality and broad representation of artists of the Teloglion Foundation art collection makes it one of the most important in Greece. Its core is the collection of Nestor and Aliki Telloglou, which is constantly enriched with new donations.
This collection includes paintings, engravings and sculptures from the 18th to the 21st centuries, which mark key moments in modern Greek art, alongside works of European and international art. Smaller subsets concern contemporary examples of textile art, furniture and decorative objects, ancient civilizations and artistic traditions of Asia.

History & Art Archives
A collection of archival materials on art, history, and culture. At its core is the archive of the art critic Tοnis P. Spiteris, comprising more than 84,000 items, which he and his wife meticulously curated and donated to the Teloglion in 1984. Smaller in scale, yet equally significant, archives complement this body of material, reflecting the cultural life of the region up to the 21st century.
We are gradually processing this rich material, continuously updating the number of published records.
