Anna Andreadi

Distinctive artistic works in bronze, iron and aluminium.

Anna Andreadi

Anna Andreadi was born in New York. She graduated from the International School of Kilchberg in Zurich and shortly afterwards settled in Athens.

Her early work consisted of experimental artistic pieces and mixed techniques using clay, metal, plaster and wood. Over time, her interest came to focus on small-scale sculpture.

This is also the period in which she and her husband created and ran the Themis Art Gallery in Athens.

Today, the raw materials of her creations are mainly bronze, iron and aluminium. The forms she uses are, to a large extent, human-centred, while her subjects deal with small, everyday efforts to find balance and harmony between things that are opposites by nature and by conviction.

Every small sculpture bearing the signature of Anna Andreadi is handmade and is an object of particular care, with forms and textures shaped using traditional tools such as files, wire brushes and cutters, as well as silver soldering and electric welding.

Works by Anna Andreadi are held in private collections in Greece, Cyprus, England, Belgium, Italy, the United States, Australia and Japan.

She has designed and made awards presented at sporting tribute events and at theatre and film festivals, as well as to political and state figures in Greece.

She also works with major companies on corporate gifts. In Greece, her work can be found in art galleries and in shops selling high-quality art objects.
