Sense and Intellect. Still Life in the Work of Cypriot Artists

The exhibition has the aim of showing how Cypriot artists have dealt with the subject of still life from the first decades of the 20th century up to today. Because of the close relationship of Cypriot artists with European art, the visitor to the exhibition will be helped at the same time to understand the more general course through time of this category of subject matter.

The exhibition will include works by pioneering artists such as Vassilis Vryonides, by the so-called fathers of Cypriot art (Diamantis, Georgiou, Kanthos) and, proceeding chronologically, the journey will end with the youngest artists, those who express themselves with non-conventional materials and new forms of expression.

Three important paintings of the 17th and 18th centuries will form an introduction to the exhibition, a kind contribution from the Leventeion Art Gallery from its unique collection of works by European artists. One is a painting from the circle of Paul Liégeois, one by the Flemish artist Jocob Xavier Vermoelen and one from the French school.
