The Family

Though the family can be traced back even further, the Andipas were recognised in Venice in 1593 by the Doge gifting their coat of arms to the family who originated from the Greek island of Cephalonia. Their crest portrays the various pillars of the family: adventurers, artists, lawmakers and their fundamental belief in friendship and brothers-in-arms. Later, the family found itself in Palestine battling the Ottomans before finally returning to Greece in the early 1950’s. Several years later, during a fateful trip to London, the family entered the world of music and the arts. In 1967, Andipa was established in the very same townhouse it occupies today in Knightsbridge. 

安迪帕家族

虽然安迪帕家族的歷史可以追溯到更远，但安迪帕斯家族于 1593 年在威尼斯得到了总督的认可，且赠送给了来自希腊凯法利尼亚岛的安迪帕家族族徽。族徽描绘了家庭的各个支柱：冒险家、艺术家、立法者以及他们对友谊和手足兄弟的基本信仰。后来，安迪帕在巴勒斯坦与奥斯曼人作战，最终于 1950 年代初返回希腊。几年后，在一次决定性的伦敦之旅中，安迪帕进入了音乐和艺术的世界。 1967 年，安迪帕画廊在它今天位于骑士桥的底点成立。

With the growing demand of art offered by Andpa, offices were established in Chicago and New York to further assist global collectors. The curatorial expertise expanded with frequent exhibitions throughout the year in London and international locations of great artist luminaries from Rembrandt to Picasso.

By the late 90's its contemporary art programme was in full swing with regular exhibitions of emerging artists from the UK and Europe. Partnerships were established with specialist dealers of Old Masters and important Ancient Art widening the focus of artworks offered to Andipa's private clients.

1990 - 2000

随着画廊对艺术品的需求不断增长，安迪帕在芝加哥和纽约设立了办事处，以进一步协助全球收藏家。安迪帕的策展专业知识，随着全年在伦敦和国际，频繁举办与伦勃朗和毕加索等伟大艺术家名人相关的展览而扩大。

到 90 年代后期，安迪帕的当代艺术项目如火如荼，定期举办来自英国和欧洲的新兴艺术家的展览。安迪帕与古典大师和重要古代艺术的专业经销商建立了合作伙伴关系，扩大了向可私人客户提供的艺术品。

1980 - 1990

1980 年代艺术市场的扩张导致安迪帕用当代艺术探索艺术史，让年轻艺术家的绘画和雕塑有机会与安迪帕博物馆级的希腊、俄罗斯和北非早期作品收藏一起展示。

安迪帕进一步尝试其学术系列讲座，高科技灯光和声音表演与文物相结合，获得国内和国际赞誉。与收藏家建立关系在画廊的活动中发挥了重要作用，除了诗歌和戏剧之夜之外，还有定期的音乐和歌剧晚会。

出于对策展的兴趣，画廊扩大了展览项目，到大教堂、学术机构和博物馆，并与学者和作家密切合作。

这使安迪帕成为国际收藏家中重要的拜占庭和后拜占庭艺术的主要来源。通过安迪帕的讲座和展览策展，它的声誉和它在艺术界的地位都得到了提升。

1967 - 70

Andipa Gallery was founded in 1967 by religious art specialist Maria Andipa and has been based from the same Knightsbridge townhouse ever since. Originally specialising in early Byzantine objects and religious Icons, the gallery became a popular location for both historic collectors and the wider public. Her love of Icons started at an early age in her birthplace of Jerusalem when she would cheekily pick apples from the local nunnery whilst watching the Sisters paint icons in their gardens. 

1967 - 70

安迪帕画廊由宗教艺术专家玛丽亚·安迪帕于 1967 年创立，从那时起就位于同一骑士桥地点。画廊最初专注于早期的拜占庭物品和宗教圣像，成为历史收藏家和广大公众的热门地点。她对圣像的热爱始于她的出生地耶路撒冷，当时她会厚颜无耻地从当地的尼姑庵采摘苹果，同时看着修女们在她们的花园里画圣像。
