Announcement

The Nicosia Municipal Arts Centre, associated with the Pierides Foundation (NiMAC) wishes to clarify the following regarding the exhibition "Α slight indisposition".

  1. The exhibition is not a solo exhibition by any individual artist. It features works by numerous Cypriot and international artists.
  2. The artwork “A Lost Moment” by artist Emin Çizenel forms part of the State Collection of the Republic of Cyprus and was acquired by the Republic around 2007. It was loaned to NiMAC exclusively for the purposes of this exhibition. The artist and his work has been exhibited on numerous previous occasions by other organizers without any issues or objections arising.
  3. NiMAC, like all cultural institutions, enjoys full artistic independence—a principle that has been established and safeguarded for decades. Our exhibitions and programmes are not subject to approval or review by the Nicosia Municipality let alone the individual works included in them.
  4. NiMAC will convene a meeting to consider the matter in light of the above, while respecting the institution’s governance framework and mission.

NiMAC [Nicosia Municipal Arts Centre, Associated with the Pierides Foundation / Old Powerhouse] is housed in the renovated building of the Old Powerhouse, located in the historical centre of Nicosia after an agreement between the Electricity Authority of Cyprus and Nicosia Municipality. NiMAC was inaugurated on 14 January 1994 and it is the oldest and largest Contemporary Art Centre of the island. Its architectural restoration and conversion into a beautiful art and cultural space was awarded the Europa Nostra Award in 1994. During its thirty years of its operation, the Nicosia Arts Centre has organized and presented more than eighty exhibitions of modern and contemporary art with the participation of well-known artists from Cyprus and abroad. Many of these were organized in collaboration with museums, art centres and cultural institutions of Europe and other countries.
