Art & About Gallery

Art & About Gallery An online gallery championing artists' unique voices. a brand-new gallery in Rithymno, Crete.

Born out of an industrial space in Emek Hefer a decade ago, the Art & About Gallery quickly transformed into a sanctuary for art lovers and a haven for gifted artists. This unique and welcoming gallery has been the cornerstone of the local art scene, housing masterpieces of local talents and offering them an authentic platform to shine. At Art & About, we've always been committed to celebrating ar

t and facilitating artist success, offering a physical space for displaying their work, mediating sales, and providing professional personal guidance. Over the years, we became a trusted destination for art enthusiasts seeking to admire and acquire affordable Israeli art. However, in June 2022, we had to bid a heartfelt farewell to our Emek Hefer location due to technical issues. We transformed this challenge into an opportunity and pivoted Art & About to a vibrant online gallery. As of early 2023, our virtual doors were officially open, featuring a fantastic roster of artists and craftsmen that we couldn't be more proud of. Our team is an eclectic mix of artists from diverse backgrounds and art aficionados. We understand the artist's journey - the challenges they encounter, the need for guidance, and the critical role of support in crafting a successful art career. Today, we prepare for the grand opening of our new gallery in Rithymno, Crete. This venture stems from our ambition to elevate Israeli art globally and introduce our artists to an expanded audience.
