HTG PARIKIA PAROS GREECE

Summer exhibitions and events
OPENED JULY 2000

In 2000 Holland Tunnel Gallery opened a second art space, located on the island of Paros, Greece.
Before moving to New York in the ‘80’s, Dutch artist and gallery founder Paulien Lethen lived on Paros for a number of years. When she and her sister, Dutch jazz pianist/vocalist Heleen Schuttevaêr bought a Cycladic 18th century house in the old center of Parikia, a historic merchant mansion, they were able to bring to fruition an idea they had for a long time in bringing Holland Tunnel to the island.
Every summer Lethen and Schuttevaêr open the house for concerts, poetry readings, artist talks and model drawing classes where artists, local neighbors, friends and tourists gather.
The opposite of the original one-space Williamsburg gallery, Holland Tunnel Paros exhibitions begin at street level in arched spaces where previously potatoes, onions, olives and wine were stored then continue to the courtyard and upstairs. Here the kitchen, dining room, library and family bedrooms lead to the spectacular 15 foot (4 ½ meter) high salla (salon). Exhibitions often have an ancient Greek theme, like Labyrinth, Metamorphosis, Oracle, Pandemonium and often are part of teh arts festival on the island.
