PM praises Greek art collector for donating collection to four museumsA great day for Athens and for contemporary art worldwide

"I hope and pray that this action finds many imitators. We have many significant collectors. I invite them to adopt this example," Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced on Wednesday, regarding the decision by art collector Dimitris Daskalopoulos to donate a significant part of his collection to four public museums in Greece and abroad, ANA reports.
Daskalopoulos will be donating more than 350 works of art by 142 artists, of which 140 will be given to the National Museum of Contemporary Art (EMST) in Athens, roughly 100 in a joint gift to the Guggenheim and MCA Chicago museums, and 110 to the Tate.
