Repetitive Acts The Power of Weaving and Textile in Contemporary Art - 6.12.2024-26.4.2025
2024-12-06 - 2025-04-26 | NIMAC, 19 Palaias Ilektrikis, Lefkosia, Nicosia, 1016, Cyprus
The exhibition “Repetitice Acts: The power of weaving and textile in contemporary art” explores the enduring power of weaving as a medium of communication, storytelling, and resistance. From ancient Peruvian textiles to contemporary Afghan “War Rugs”, textiles have served as a silent yet eloquent transmitter of meaning and memory. This exhibition brings weaving’s legacy into the present, showing how contemporary artists from Cyprus transcend its domestic associations to become a space for political, cultural, and personal expression. The act of making, the repetitive patterns, and the ritual of repetition in the process are all equally significant.
Visiting Hours:
Wednesday – Saturday: 10:00 – 20:00
Sunday: 10:00 – 18:00

The witch Freakadella hates everything that is good…. especially… Christmas carols! When children sing them at Christmastime she gets furious and turns them into frogs, ducklings, kittens and other animals. Still, even in their new form, children keep on singing the Carols. After various adventures, the children manage to change Freakadella’s mind and heart…

We will be very happy to welcome you!

Lemesos 2030 and the Andreas Pittas Art Characterization Laboratories (APAC Labs) of the Cyprus Institute present the exhibition “Unseen Gaze – The Hidden Portrait under Titian’s ECCE HOMO”, to be inaugurated by the Mayor of Limassol, Mr Yiannis Armeftis, on 24 January 2025, at 18:30, at Apothikes Papadaki.
The exhibition unveils a hidden work by Titian, concealed beneath the famous painting Ecce Homo (1570). This discovery was made possible through advanced technology and scientific methods pioneered by the Andreas Pittas Art Characterization Laboratories (APAC Labs). The hidden artwork, the portrait of a man, was revealed using cutting-edge technology, whereas the results of this process were utilised by visual artist and rector of the Athens School of Fine Arts, Erato Hadjisavva, to recreate the painting. This groundbreaking method highlighted the intrinsic connection between art and science, paving the way for new artistic approaches.
Cultural heritage, science, technology, and contemporary artistic practices converge in the Unseen Gaze exhibition: a rare opportunity for visitors to delve into the technical analysis of the painting, understand the relationship between the original work and its modern recreation (1570 & 2024), as well as to witness how technology can unveil artistic secrets hidden for centuries.

The CySO String Quartet consists of leaders of the Cyprus Symphony, the concertmaster Wolfgang Schroeder, the principal violist Kumiko Okutomi and the principal cellist Jakub Otčenášek as well as the violin tutti member Iraklis Mitellas. Founded in 2023, the Quartet quickly established itself as one of the leading ensembles on the island. Uniting different cultures, the Quartet’s aim is to present very diverse repertoire, ranging from the Baroque to avant-garde music.
In this concert they will take us one a journey from the timeless spirituality and charm of Bach’s Chorales, to Shostakovich’s grand Quartet no. 12, a personal emotional tribute “to the victims of fascism and war”, and the flowing melodic invention of Dvořák’s “American” quartet. Performed with the characteristic passion and precision of the CySO String Quartet, this concert is sure to captivate you!
