Open letter to the President

Addressed to the President of the Republic of Cyprus, we support this petition which discusses, the attitudes of the current administration of the Deputy Ministry of Culture and the state of the cultural sector in Cyprus.

 

Open letter: freedom of speech, opinion, and creativity

This year, the contemporary art scene in Cyprus has been overwhelmed by an avalanche of poor decisions and actions by the Deputy Ministry of Culture, demonstrating that its administration is not exercising its responsibilities with due diligence. We have reached a new low, as it appears that the Deputy Ministry is adopting a strategy of control through confusion, forcing the cultural sector to absorb itself in a constant response to frequent and poorly coordinated interventions and policy shifts, rather than focusing on research, development, and the evolution of artistic production. The result is a climate of insecurity and disorientation, which favors alienation rather than study and creation. Although there have been controversies in the past that have fueled the news and social media, never before have we had so many issues to contend with in such a short period of time as we do now.

Open Letter to the Deputy Ministry of Culture

Following the publication of the results of the “Culture II – Supporting Visual Activity and Development” Programme for 2025, and following our repeated interventions to the Department of Contemporary Culture – both through the Working Group and independent stakeholders – since November 2024, documented concerns and proposals for the Culture Programme have been submitted. In this context, we are taking a public position on the rejection of a significant number of proposals, as well as the systemic problems highlighted by the evaluation process.

WRO Biennale 2025

The central theme of the WRO Biennale 2025 is Qualia.

A series of events presenting Polish and international contemporary art orientated at media experiments, interaction, examination of impulses coming from the works, and relations of art and consciousness, which we are going to try to capture through the lens of a relatively young philosophical concept, which has its roots in epistemology.

 

May days 2025

May is normally a slow month in the Cyprus arts scene. NeMe is trying to remedy this with two talks that ever slightly try to fill this gap.
