The Goethe-Institut Cyprus warmly invites you to the launch event for the Nicosia magazine edition of EVROVIZION.CROSSING STORIES AND SPACES.
EVROVIZION.CROSSING STORIES AND SPACES is an exhibition by ifa (Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations), which was presented in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Cyprus and NiMAC (Nicosia Municipal Arts Centre, Associated with the Pierides Foundation) in Nicosia from 11 November 2023 to 10 February 2024.
The co-creative exhibition project explores the current social and political climate in Europe and the idea of a European identity. The focus is on less visible and marginalised geopolitical and cultural spaces, in particular in southeast and eastern Europe. These are so-called semi-peripheries and places of diversity that often play only a minor role in many international theoretical discourses and exhibition practices, such as the multi-ethnic city of Sarajevo – the first venue of the project.
In close cooperation with regional protagonists and each local art scene, new artistic projects will be added to the exhibition during the course of its tour. The aim is to reflect on contemporary social and political challenges, and to make specific local impulses visible in order to generate the continuous and flowing development of dialogue spaces. The exhibition title EVROVIZION is a construct made of similar and yet still different languages – Eurovisione / Evrovizija / Евровизия – a fusion of potential unities; a free version of potential togetherness.
At each location, a magazine is published that reflects the exhibited works and provides an impression of the previous exhibition. EVROVIZION.CROSSING NICOSIA is dedicated to the presentation of the ever-growing project in Nicosia and its impact on the city’s cultural identity.
The Nicosia edition is now ready to be explored and studied. At the launch we will be joined by all local artists and curators who were involved in the project in Cyprus, as well as Adnan Softic, an artist who conducted research and developed new works in Cyprus.
Drop by and pick up copies of the magazines from all previous stations and the newest issue of Nicosia, along with a matching tote bag.
