KIBELE ART GALLERY

Kibele Art Gallery was inaugurated in 2001 with the exhibition “Seas, Dreams and Cities” that was held in memory of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Ivan Aivazovsky, a painter of marine art from the 19th century. The name of the gallery derives from the statue of Kibele Fountain that stands in Is Towers.
