In 2023, the palace was restored and reopened to the public as an artists residence and an exhibition center. The first artist being hosted is American painter Robert Nava.Around 1961, through their mutual relationship with the artist Afro, Twombly met the American artist Joseph Glasco in Mykonos. According to Glasco, he and Twombly "saw each other every summer in Mykonos for years ... and saw a lot of each other daily".
