I would think, that most people don't go to Athens for the "contemporary" aspect.

are you sure about that? the city is only a few years old. what else could there be?

I'd be interested in hearing about contemporary work in Athens if anyone knows about it...

the contextual issues alone would be worth evaluating...

Hmm, what about Tschumi's New Acropolis Museum? Although I'm not sure how far the construction of that has come, but maybe that's worth checking out. A qualified guess is that it is (or will be) located near the Acropolis, hehe.

There is a good database.
Try to find the buildings of

-Zenetos, Takis Ch
-Aris Konstantinidis
-Alexandros Tombazis (Difros" High-rise residential complex)
-Pavlos Mylonas
-Constantinos Doxiadis

Anyway... There is all the informations you need in this site.
I hope you find something good.

you have to go in PSIRI (next of Omonia). It s a very area of athens!

Good luck

geox, thanks for this..
