Three Photographic Trails Nicosia: People and Places Part 3: 1960-2004

Three Photographic Trails Nicosia: People and Places Part 3: 1960-2004

03.09.24-29.09.24

The final part of the exhibition trilogy presents photographic aspects of Nicosia from the Museum’s ‘To Mati’ Photographic Archive and at the same time brings to light
contemporary photographic evidence from members of the Cyprus Photographic Society – Nicosia Branch and other lovers of the art of photography who have attempted to ‘illustrate’ the capital city.

It is about a union of the art of photography of yesteryear and of our times, which endeavours to take us on a perceptual journey across the place, its people
and the historical events that marked their lives, such as the declaration of the Republic of Cyprus on 16 August 1960 and the accession of the island
to the European Union on 1 May 2004.

The visitor is invited to view the photographs in chronological order, which comprises the puzzle of the decades, while simultaneously underlining the important historical milestones of Nicosia as the last divided capital of Europe.

Exhibition duration (Part 3): 03-29 September 2024

Open: Tuesday-Sunday, 10.00-16.30
