SUMMARY:Unspoken Messages / Public Performance - Installation
DESCRIPTION:At Zouhouri Square\, Liv Ingeborg Ottersen is present for the entire duration of the Larnaca Biennale\, welcoming visitors and inviting them to take part in her evolving artwork. \nCatch Liv Ingeborg Ottersen on October 16th from 17:30 to 20:00\, alongside multiple performances at Zouhouri Square\, or visit on any other day during the Biennale. \nThe work begins with delicate strips of colored tulle\, each threaded with fine cords\, inviting passers by to attach their personal messages. Soft\, almost iridescent shades of tulle create a dreamlike\, floating backdrop. Over time\, the fragments are woven together on-site\, forming a flowing curtain that transforms as contributions accumulate. \nParticipants are encouraged to write wishes\, reflections\, or private thoughts on small pieces of paper\, folding them into sealed notes before fastening them to the hanging threads. These notes act as visual markers\, recalling traditions in which offerings are placed or tied within sacred or communal spaces. By remaining sealed\, the messages emphasize the interplay between what is revealed and what is kept hidden\, offering intimacy while preserving mystery. \nAs the installation expands\, it evolves into a living\, dynamic record shaped by communal participation\, showing how words\, intentions\, and interactions leave enduring marks on each other and the shared world. \n– \nΣτην Πλατεία Ζουχούρη\, η Liv Ingeborg Ottersen είναι παρούσα καθ’ όλη τη διάρκεια της Λάρνακας Μπιενάλε\, καλωσορίζοντας τους επισκέπτες και προσκαλώντας τους να συμμετάσχουν στο εξελισσόμενο έργο της. \nΔείτε την Liv Ingeborg Ottersen στις 16 Οκτωβρίου\, από τις 17:30 έως τις 20:00\, μαζί με άλλα public performances στην Πλατεία Ζουχούρη\, ή επισκεφθείτε την οποιαδήποτε άλλη ημέρα κατά τη διάρκεια της Μπιενάλε. \nΤο έργο ξεκινά με λεπτές λωρίδες πολύχρωμου τούλι\, κάθε μία περασμένη με λεπτά κορδόνια\, καλώντας τους περαστικούς να επισυνάψουν τα προσωπικά τους μηνύματα. Οι απαλές\, σχεδόν ιριδίζουσες αποχρώσεις του τούλι δημιουργούν ένα ονειρικό\, αιωρούμενο φόντο. Με την πάροδο του χρόνου\, τα κομμάτια υφαίνονται επιτόπου\, σχηματίζοντας μια ρέουσα κουρτίνα που μεταμορφώνεται καθώς προστίθενται νέες συνεισφορές. \nΟι συμμετέχοντες ενθαρρύνονται να γράψουν ευχές\, σκέψεις ή προσωπικά συναισθήματα σε μικρά κομμάτια χαρτιού\, διπλώνοντάς τα σε σφραγισμένα σημειώματα πριν τα στερεώσουν στα κρεμασμένα νήματα. Αυτά τα σημειώματα λειτουργούν ως οπτικοί δείκτες\, παραπέμποντας σε παραδόσεις όπου προσφορές τοποθετούνται ή δένονται σε ιερούς ή κοινοτικούς χώρους. Μένοντας σφραγισμένα\, τα μηνύματα τονίζουν την αλληλεπίδραση μεταξύ του αποκαλυπτόμενου και του κρυφού\, προσφέροντας οικειότητα ενώ διατηρούν το μυστήριο. \nΚαθώς η εγκατάσταση εξελίσσεται\, μεταμορφώνεται σε ένα ζωντανό\, δυναμικό αρχείο που διαμορφώνεται από την κοινή συμμετοχή\, δείχνοντας πώς οι λέξεις\, οι προθέσεις και οι αλληλεπιδράσεις αφήνουν διαρκή σημάδια η μία στην άλλη και στον κοινό κόσμο. \n– \nArtist: Liv Ingeborg Ottersen \nPerformance-installation: textile\, paper \nPart of the Open Call “Along Lines and Traces” Exhibition

SUMMARY:22 Stops / Public Performance
DESCRIPTION:The audience is invited to walk in silence\, following the performer through the city. Each stop is marked in chalk\, a temporary sign of presence and absence\, guiding the audience to stand where the unfolding action can be most deeply felt. Participants are free to stay as long as they wish during the walk. They are encouraged to keep photography to a minimum and to move through the city’s streets with care. The body frames the city; the city frames the body. \nPlease allow yourself to witness the unseen poetics of the everyday. \nRoute – 22 stops \nStart and End: Zouhouri Square \nZouhouri Square \n\nArtwork\nMosque wall\nMosque entrance doors\nBlooming window / glass door\n\nFaneromenis → Chaintenstam5.

Κάθε στάση σημειώνεται με κιμωλία\, ένα προσωρινό σημάδι παρουσίας και απουσίας\, καθοδηγώντας το κοινό να σταθεί εκεί όπου η εκάστοτε δράση μπορεί να βιωθεί πιο έντονα. Οι συμμετέχοντες μπορούν να παραμείνουν όσο θέλουν κατά τη διάρκεια της διαδρομής. Ενθαρρύνονται να περιορίσουν τη φωτογράφιση και να κινούνται προσεκτικά στους δρόμους της πόλης. Το σώμα πλαισιώνει την πόλη· η πόλη πλαισιώνει το σώμα. \nΠαρακαλούμε επιτρέψτε στον εαυτό σας να γίνετε μάρτυρες της αθέατης ποιητικότητας της καθημερινότητας. \nΜερικές από τις στάσεις είναι: Παραλία/Παραλιακή Φοινικούδες\, Κάστρο Λάρνακας\, Δημοτική Αγορά\, Πλατεία Ευρώπης\, Πλατεία Ζουχουρί\, Παλιά Πόλη \nΠερισσότερες πληροφορίες για τις στάσεις στις 14 Οκτωβρίου. \nArtist: Katerina Drakopoulou Part of the Open Call “Along Lines and Traces”

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October). Tania El Khoury’s performance – As Far As My Fingertips Take Me takes place on the weekend of 14-15 October.  \nSupport\nThe exhibition is supported by the Larnaca Biennale\, Foundation Brave New Works\, Ministry of Education\, Science Culture and Sport of the Republic of Armenia\, Embassy of Armenia to Cyprus\, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Philippossian & Pilossian Foundation\, ART For the World\, Armenian Arts Council in Yerevan and EMST  National Museum of Contemporary Art in Athens (ΕΜΣΤ). \nOfficial Website

SUMMARY:Home Away From Home
DESCRIPTION:“What is it that constitutes a home\, beyond just bricks and mortar? Over the years and around the world\, we ‘ve grappled back and forth with the many meanings of this word. For this biennale\, I ‘ve set myself the task of unpacking notions of home and belonging – ideas that have shaped our lives and identities since birth. It will be filled with stories\, some particular\, some entirely universal\, which all give rise to our sense of self. I ‘m thrilled to extend the invitation to artists\, creators and makers of all varieties to join the conversation; submitting new propositions or revisiting existing work that considers this important theme.” Yev Kravt\, Curator Larnaca Biennale 2023 \nThis year’s curational theme\, “Home Away from Home”\, conceived by curator Yev Kravt prompted artists from around the world to submit their proposals\, resulting in the selection of 101 artworks that encapsulate the essence of the theme.\nLarnaca Biennale 2023 invites you to a kaleidoscope of diverse artistic stories weaving tales of identity\, belonging\, displacement\, and the quest for home in our evolving world. \nExhibition Venues \nMunicipal Art Gallery  entrance free\nMonday – Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00-18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nPierides Museum entrance free\nMonday- Thursday 09:00-16:00\nFriday 09:00-13:00\nSaturday 09:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Municipal Market entrance free \nMonday- Sunday 10:00 – 18:00\n1st Floor staircase and elevator access\n→ Map \nEVOHK – Artist Run Space entrance free\nMonday- Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00 – 18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Medieval Castle entrance €2.50\nMonday – Friday 08:00-17:00\nSaturday – Sunday 09:30-17:00\n→ Map \nThe Living Room entrance free * MAIN INFO CENTER\nMonday – Sunday 10:00-18:00\n→ Map

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October).

SUMMARY:Threads On Home
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Series: exploring diverse perspectives on the concept of ‘Home’. \nGuest Speakers invited by Yev Kravt. \n“Threads on Home” is a lecture series that is part of Larnaca Biennale 2023\, centered around the theme ‘Home Away From Home.’ This series takes place every Tuesday at 19:00 in the Living Room at Lazarus Square in Larnaca. Each week\, we delve into different themes over five weeks\, featuring five unique speakers. We kick off with Psychology\, followed by Environment\, Architecture and Design\, Philosophy\, and Space and Technology. Each week\, a different topic and lecturer explore the concept of ‘home’ from different perspectives\, concluding with a Q&A session. Attending is free\, just let us know that you are coming by RSVP? \nWeek 1: Psychology\nWe start with guest speaker\, Dr. Christakis Peristianis\, who boasts an interdisciplinary background merging sociology\, social/cultural history\, and human geography. Over the past seven years\, he has dedicated his research to the concept of ‘Home.’ His PhD work\, “Legacies of Displacement: The memories and meanings of home among a Greek Cypriot family\,” delves into what occurs when home vanishes\, leaving only memories.  \nWeek 2: Environment\nIt’s easy to forget that our primal home once thrived within the natural world\, deeply embedded within the environment. Dr. Maria Hadjimichael explores the ‘home’ theme from an environmental perspective. She is an interdisciplinary scientist in the field of marine and coastal governance\, with extensive academic and research experience. Currently\, she serves as a Senior Associate Scientist at CMMI\, the Cyprus Marine and Maritime Institute. \nWeek 3: Architecture and Design\nDr. William Myer\, who combines the fields of environment and architecture and design\, will speak about BioDesign. His book\, “Biodesign” (2012\, 2018\, 2022 editions) published by the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)\, identifies the emerging practice of integrating biological processes into design and architecture. Myer also serves as the Founding Director of the new Museum of 21st Century Design (M21D). \nWeek 4: Philosophy and Spirituality\nThis theme will be explored though an online session with contemporary philosopher and NYU professor Dr. Kwame Anthony Appiah. Dr. Appiah delves into his book\, “Lies that Bind Us: Rethinking Identity\,” challenging our assumptions about how identities function. He provides insights into the creation of identities amidst conflicts. The event will still take place at The Living Room with physical attendance. \nWeek 5: Space and Technology\nOur final discussion bridges space and technology through innovation. Dr. Nir Tsuk\, a seasoned practitioner\, academic\, and facilitator with over two decades of international experience in social capital\, entrepreneurship\, and the culture of innovation\, will lead this session. Dr. Tsuk is the founder of NYU’s Institute for Impact and Intrapreneurship\, pioneering the language of innovation. \n  \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:What will Your Home be if you Don't Remember it?
DESCRIPTION:Children’s Art Exhibition on Alzheimer’s Disease and lecture by Dr. Andreas Chadjikyprianou\n and lecture by Dr. Andreas Chadjikyprianou \nConsider a treasure chest full of priceless memories. What if someone accidentally placed the key inside the treasure chest and you couldn’t remember where the key was or what was inside? This is similar to what happens to people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. It has an impact on the ability of mostly elderly people to remember things. It’s the equivalent of forgetting where you put your toys or what you had for breakfast. But imagine you’ve forgotten where you live or who your family is.That would be terrifying!  \nAlzheimer is a disease that affects one of the human body’s most important parts\, the mind\, or as it is scientifically known\, the brain.  \nGuided by their creativity\, children ages 7-15 have been asked to paint and create what their home would be like if they didn’t remember it. What would their mind look like if it was worn out? What does a sufferer think? How are their brain neurone’s working? \nAfter the exhibition\, Dr. Andreas Chadjikyprianou will give a 20 minute presentation on Alzheimer’s disease. Participants will explore the relationship between Alzheimer’s and dementia\, learn what happens in a brain affected by Alzheimer’s\, learn about risk factors and receive helpful information. Live discussion and reception will follow.

SUMMARY:To The Sea With Her Names
DESCRIPTION:Mixed Media Exhibition: A group show by six Asian Artists \n“A name could be signified by a memory and in turn prompt a story\, it can compose identity\, or conjure character. This project’s aim is a group exhibition\, in a common site in Cyprus\, but also a name that has existed for hundreds of years\, thinking about the possibilities of resonating with foreign perspectives.\nArtists from diverse backgrounds will engage with local communities and look beyond borders. The artists not only work in local contexts\, but also trying to reply to the contemporary dilemmas common to the global.\nArtworks begin from the relationships developed in Cyprus\, exploring various dimensions like the role of the sea\, geopolitics\, historical diversity\, local industry\, and traditional crafts. From the artist’s memories and experiences in his own social relationships\, he summons different stories.\nThese stories look at the relationships and tensions hidden by the grand narrative\, such as the emotions erased by history\, the time lost in the wear\, the determination to preserve life in the conflicts and Political wrangling\, and so on. They are ambiguous\, irrelevant to directivity\, but discordant sounds\, ubiquitous\, and real\, mixed.\nThe repeated waves are like the cancellation and return of history\, and we hope to add diverse faces to the ocean of history through the flexibility and imagination characteristic of art.” – Shaoan Huang

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space.

SUMMARY:Home Away From Home
DESCRIPTION:“What is it that constitutes a home\, beyond just bricks and mortar? Over the years and around the world\, we ‘ve grappled back and forth with the many meanings of this word. For this biennale\, I ‘ve set myself the task of unpacking notions of home and belonging – ideas that have shaped our lives and identities since birth. It will be filled with stories\, some particular\, some entirely universal\, which all give rise to our sense of self. I ‘m thrilled to extend the invitation to artists\, creators and makers of all varieties to join the conversation; submitting new propositions or revisiting existing work that considers this important theme.” Yev Kravt\, Curator Larnaca Biennale 2023 \nThis year’s curational theme\, “Home Away from Home”\, conceived by curator Yev Kravt prompted artists from around the world to submit their proposals\, resulting in the selection of 101 artworks that encapsulate the essence of the theme.\nLarnaca Biennale 2023 invites you to a kaleidoscope of diverse artistic stories weaving tales of identity\, belonging\, displacement\, and the quest for home in our evolving world. \nExhibition Venues \nMunicipal Art Gallery  entrance free\nMonday – Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00-18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nPierides Museum entrance free\nMonday- Thursday 09:00-16:00\nFriday 09:00-13:00\nSaturday 09:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Municipal Market entrance free \nMonday- Sunday 10:00 – 18:00\n1st Floor staircase and elevator access\n→ Map \nEVOHK – Artist Run Space entrance free\nMonday- Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00 – 18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Medieval Castle entrance €2.50\nMonday – Friday 08:00-17:00\nSaturday – Sunday 09:30-17:00\n→ Map \nThe Living Room entrance free * MAIN INFO CENTER\nMonday – Sunday 10:00-18:00\n→ Map

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October).

SUMMARY:To The Sea With Her Names
DESCRIPTION:Mixed Media Exhibition: A group show by six Asian Artists \n“A name could be signified by a memory and in turn prompt a story\, it can compose identity\, or conjure character. This project’s aim is a group exhibition\, in a common site in Cyprus\, but also a name that has existed for hundreds of years\, thinking about the possibilities of resonating with foreign perspectives.\nArtists from diverse backgrounds will engage with local communities and look beyond borders. The artists not only work in local contexts\, but also trying to reply to the contemporary dilemmas common to the global.\nArtworks begin from the relationships developed in Cyprus\, exploring various dimensions like the role of the sea\, geopolitics\, historical diversity\, local industry\, and traditional crafts. From the artist’s memories and experiences in his own social relationships\, he summons different stories.\nThese stories look at the relationships and tensions hidden by the grand narrative\, such as the emotions erased by history\, the time lost in the wear\, the determination to preserve life in the conflicts and Political wrangling\, and so on. They are ambiguous\, irrelevant to directivity\, but discordant sounds\, ubiquitous\, and real\, mixed.\nThe repeated waves are like the cancellation and return of history\, and we hope to add diverse faces to the ocean of history through the flexibility and imagination characteristic of art.” – Shaoan Huang

For this biennale\, I ‘ve set myself the task of unpacking notions of home and belonging – ideas that have shaped our lives and identities since birth. It will be filled with stories\, some particular\, some entirely universal\, which all give rise to our sense of self. I ‘m thrilled to extend the invitation to artists\, creators and makers of all varieties to join the conversation; submitting new propositions or revisiting existing work that considers this important theme.” Yev Kravt\, Curator Larnaca Biennale 2023 \nThis year’s curational theme\, “Home Away from Home”\, conceived by curator Yev Kravt prompted artists from around the world to submit their proposals\, resulting in the selection of 101 artworks that encapsulate the essence of the theme.\nLarnaca Biennale 2023 invites you to a kaleidoscope of diverse artistic stories weaving tales of identity\, belonging\, displacement\, and the quest for home in our evolving world. \nExhibition Venues \nMunicipal Art Gallery  entrance free\nMonday – Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00-18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nPierides Museum entrance free\nMonday- Thursday 09:00-16:00\nFriday 09:00-13:00\nSaturday 09:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Municipal Market entrance free \nMonday- Sunday 10:00 – 18:00\n1st Floor staircase and elevator access\n→ Map \nEVOHK – Artist Run Space entrance free\nMonday- Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00 – 18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Medieval Castle entrance €2.50\nMonday – Friday 08:00-17:00\nSaturday – Sunday 09:30-17:00\n→ Map \nThe Living Room entrance free * MAIN INFO CENTER\nMonday – Sunday 10:00-18:00\n→ Map

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October). Tania El Khoury’s performance – As Far As My Fingertips Take Me takes place on the weekend of 14-15 October.  \nSupport\nThe exhibition is supported by the Larnaca Biennale\, Foundation Brave New Works\, Ministry of Education\, Science Culture and Sport of the Republic of Armenia\, Embassy of Armenia to Cyprus\, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Philippossian & Pilossian Foundation\, ART For the World\, Armenian Arts Council in Yerevan and EMST  National Museum of Contemporary Art in Athens (ΕΜΣΤ). \nOfficial Website

SUMMARY:To The Sea With Her Names
DESCRIPTION:Mixed Media Exhibition: A group show by six Asian Artists \n“A name could be signified by a memory and in turn prompt a story\, it can compose identity\, or conjure character. This project’s aim is a group exhibition\, in a common site in Cyprus\, but also a name that has existed for hundreds of years\, thinking about the possibilities of resonating with foreign perspectives.\nArtists from diverse backgrounds will engage with local communities and look beyond borders. The artists not only work in local contexts\, but also trying to reply to the contemporary dilemmas common to the global.\nArtworks begin from the relationships developed in Cyprus\, exploring various dimensions like the role of the sea\, geopolitics\, historical diversity\, local industry\, and traditional crafts. From the artist’s memories and experiences in his own social relationships\, he summons different stories.\nThese stories look at the relationships and tensions hidden by the grand narrative\, such as the emotions erased by history\, the time lost in the wear\, the determination to preserve life in the conflicts and Political wrangling\, and so on. They are ambiguous\, irrelevant to directivity\, but discordant sounds\, ubiquitous\, and real\, mixed.\nThe repeated waves are like the cancellation and return of history\, and we hope to add diverse faces to the ocean of history through the flexibility and imagination characteristic of art.” – Shaoan Huang
