Visit Cyprus

Tekton exhibition - 7.4-7.8.2025
2025-04-07 - 2025-08-07 | Old Carob Warehouse, 27 Synergatismou Str., Limassol, 3010, Cyprus
The PSI Foundation is proud to announce the opening of the Tekton exhibition in its premises to be visited from April 7, 2025. The exhibition will be the first to showcase the visionary work of Andreas Papadopoulos and Phoebus Polydorides, a pioneering engineer-architect duo active in Limassol in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Andreas Papadopoulos (1922–2009) was a skilled engineer and an active advocate for the independence of Cyprus, later serving as the Minister of Transport and Works in the country’s first independent government.
Phoebus Polydorides (1926–2019) played a key role in defining Limassol’s urban aesthetic, designing several iconic buildings, including Aktaia, which became a landmark of the city’s modernist transformation.
The Tekton exhibition delves into the evolution of Modernist architecture in Cyprus, highlighting its role as a powerful symbol of the country’s newfound sovereignty and as a response to the colonial architectural style of the first half of the 20th century. It examines the achievements of Papadopoulos and Polydorides, who introduced innovative architectural forms into the Cypriot landscape and proposed important urban solutions that shaped the identity of the evolving country. Unpublished archival materials offer a rare glimpse into the duo’s contributions to Cyprus’ cultural and architectural heritage.
The revolutionary approach is further developed by a site-specific installation by British artist Matt Collishaw Aftermath. Specially created for the dramatic modernist interior of the PSI Foundation in 2024 it serves as a bridge between the past and the future via the unique dialogue on cultural transformation that incorporates artificial intelligence.
Tekton is curated by Dimitri Ozerkov, Chief Curator of PSI Foundation and former director of the Contemporary Art Department at the Hermitage Museum, and Danila Parniouk, acclaimed photographer and Art Director of PSI Foundation. The exhibition will run through August 2025 and will be open to the public free of charge in the working hours available at https://psi.art.
The Parallel Program to the exhibition kicks off on March 22, at 18:00, with an Artist Talk “The Body in Excess, Zombies, Cyborgs & Chimeras,” by renowned Limassol-born performance artist Stelarc.
The non-profit PSI Foundation was established in Limassol in 2024 with the mission to support and cultivate the thriving artistic landscape of Cyprus. Central to its vision is the promotion of contemporary art in dialogue with technology. Through curated exhibitions, collaborative projects, and creative sessions, the Foundation strives to challenge perceptions about the convergence of art and technology and inspire audiences to explore new realms of possibility. As part of its dedication to showcasing the rich tapestry of Cypriot art, the Foundation proudly supported the Cyprus National Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale and hosted several networking events. In 2024 PSI Foundation commissioned Casts of an Island 2024, an exhibition to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the division of the island of Cyprus.
Another mission of the Foundation consists of preserving the historic Carob Warehouse of Limassol and envisaging its future use. The Tekton exhibition presents the results of deep archival research of the building and proposes to envisage its future.

23RD CYPRUS FILM DAYS INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL 2025 - 4-12.4.2025 (Lemessos)
2025-04-04 18:00 - 2025-04-12 00:00 | Rialto Theatre, Andrea Drousioti Street 19, Plateia Iroon, Lemesos, state, 3603, Cyprus

3rd International Coastal Rowing Beach Sprints LNC Competition - 4-6.4.2025
2025-04-04 08:00 - 2025-04-06 17:00 | Parekklisia Beach / Malindi Beach, St. Raphael Marina, Limassol, Cyprus
A Beach Sprint Coastal rowing race, is an exciting and dynamic rowing race that takes place in the sea near a beach. Unlike traditional rowing races that take place in calm waters, coastal rowing races add an extra level of excitement by wading through waves, currents and potentially rough weather.
Here is a description of what such a race might entail:
**Location:**
The race is usually run along a scenic coastline, incorporating the natural elements of the open sea. The start and finish points are located on the beach and rowers launch their boats directly from the shore.
** Boats:**
Coastal rowing boats are designed to handle the unpredictable nature of the sea. These boats are sturdier than their calm water counterparts, often featuring wider hulls, reinforced construction and greater stability.
**What does Beach Sprints mean?**
The race starts from the beach, 30-50 meters away from where the wave breaks. The rowers (two athletes at a time) start from the beach sprinting, enter the boat and row between buoys for 250 meters, make the final turn (360 degrees), return to the beach and sprint out of the boat to finish before from their teammate who has done exactly the same course on parallel buoys.
**Challenges:**
Rowers face challenges such as changing winds and potentially choppy waters, making the race both physically demanding and mentally engaging. Adaptability to ever-changing coastal conditions becomes a critical aspect of success.
In other words, a sprint race on the beach combines the athleticism and teamwork of traditional rowing with the unpredictable and exciting elements of coastal waters, creating an exciting and visually captivating sporting event.

2025-01-24 - 2025-03-10 | Apothikes Papadaki, Christodoulou Papadaki, Limassol, 3036, Cyprus
It is with great pleasure to invite you at the opening of the exhibition “Unseen Gaze” which will be held by the Mayor of Limassol, Mr Yiannis Armeftis, tommorrow Friday 24th of January 2025 at 18:30 in the venue of the Limassol Municipal Arts Centre – Apothikes Papadaki.
We will be very happy to welcome you!
Please find below attached all information and the newsletter by the Lemesos 2030 organization.
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.

To give you a glimpse, these include Brahms’ Hungarian Dance no. 1, Rachmaninov’s Vocalise, Spanish Dance no. 5 by Granados and Sibelius’ Valse triste, arranged for string quartet. This is a truly inspired programme that will keep you mesmerized!
