Thursday, 17 September 2026, at 19:00

The volume Cyprus Insula – History, Memory, Reality, published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same title, currently on view at the BoCCF, marks the relaunch of the Foundation’s publishing programme. The publication documents, both visually and interpretively, the exhibition’s over two hundred exhibits, including archaeological finds, folk art objects, contemporary artworks, interactive and immersive digital applications, heirlooms and archival material.

In addition, the volume includes twelve original essays by academics, cultural professionals, and writers, drawing on lived experience, academic research and personal reflection. These texts explore diverse aspects of the Cypriot experience, as well as historical events and circumstances that have shaped facets of Cyprus’s cultural identity. In this way, the discussion initiated by the exhibition extends beyond the museum space and beyond the duration of the exhibition itself, promoting multiple perspectives and a plurality of narratives.

Anna Marangou and Dr Athanasios Vionis will share their thoughts and reflections on the publication.

The presentation will be in English.
