Art Placement & Commissioned Photography for Hotels, Offices, and Institutions in Greece

Art placement for professional environments is fundamentally different from retail collecting. Limited edition prints sold online are intended for private collectors and domestic settings.

Hotels, offices, institutions, and corporations require artwork that functions within architecture, supports identity, and remains visually coherent over time. For this reason, artworks are curated or commissioned specifically for the space, rather than selected as isolated retail editions.

Retail art purchases are designed around individual ownership and aesthetic preference. Professional environments must consider scale, repetition, spatial rhythm, durability, and audience interaction.

A hotel, office, or institution requires artwork that integrates into circulation areas, guest rooms, meeting spaces, or public zones. Something retail editions are not designed to address. Art placement prioritizes long-term use, architectural logic, and visual consistency.

This service is designed for professional, architectural, and institutional environments, including:

• Hotels and hospitality groups

• Corporate offices and headquarters

• Foundations and cultural institutions

• Law firms and professional practices

• Architectural and engineering offices

• Medical practices and clinics

• International organizations with a presence in Greece

The common factor is the need for artwork that communicates seriousness, identity, and permanence.

Yes.

Organizations may commission new photographic work developed specifically for their space, location, or institutional identity.

Commissioned projects are developed through a structured process that considers architecture, audience, and long-term placement, rather than aesthetic trends or retail availability.

Yes.

Depending on the project, existing works from long-term photographic series may be curated and adapted to the space.

In both cases—commissioned or curated—the selection is made specifically for the environment and not treated as a retail transaction.

Black-and-white photography emphasizes form, structure, gesture, and meaning while removing visual distraction.

In professional environments, this results in artwork that integrates naturally with architecture, lighting, and materials, remaining relevant over decades rather than responding to short-term trends.

This visual restraint makes black-and-white photography especially suitable for hotels, offices, and institutions where focus, clarity, and longevity are essential.

Yes.

Art placement projects often involve collaboration with architects, interior designers, art consultants, and project managers.

This ensures that the artwork aligns with the broader architectural and spatial strategy rather than being treated as a decorative afterthought.

Professional art placement projects are not priced using retail edition logic.

Pricing, formats, quantities, and edition structures are defined per project based on scope, scale, and long-term placement requirements. This allows organizations to acquire artwork that is appropriate for their use case rather than adapting consumer-oriented editions.

Exclusivity can be structured as part of a project, depending on the context and requirements.

This may include site-specific work, project-based exclusivity, or defined usage terms.

Exclusivity is discussed and agreed upon during the consultation phase.

Yes.

All artworks produced for professional placement are created using archival materials and production methods suitable for long-term institutional use.

This includes considerations for durability, stability, and consistency across multiple installations within the same environment.

Projects typically begin with a private consultation.

This initial discussion focuses on the space, intended use, audience, and long-term objectives of the organization.

From there, a curatorial or commissioning proposal is developed based on the specific needs of the project.

This service is not intended for retail-style private collecting.

However, it does apply to private residences and individuals who approach artwork as part of an architectural, spatial, or commissioned project, rather than as a retail purchase.

Private clients seeking site-specific work, curated photographic series, or commissioned projects for residences, estates, or private collections are welcome to request a consultation. These projects follow the same curatorial and commissioning process used for institutional and professional environments.

Private collectors interested in acquiring individual retail editions should explore the artist’s standard collections separately.

Organizations interested in art placement or commissioned photography may request a private consultation by contacting George Tatakis.

Each project begins with a discussion of space, intent, and long-term use before any proposal is made.
