Johannes van Vugt - The Road and More!

Johannes van Vugt - The Road and More!

The title of the exhibition “The Road” is taken from a poem by Robert Frost “The Road Not Taken”. In the paintings you can find indications of choices that determine our journey through life. In his paintings Van Vugt often refers to his childhood. A growing child has to make choices that can turn out to be good or bad. How we interpret these choices really makes us who we are. We can look back into the past and see which choices have shaped us the most.

Andreas Ion Makrides was born in Nicosia, Cyprus in 1999. His artistic inclination became apparent from the early years of my life. He studied Conceptual Design with direction in fashion design at De Montfort University, in the UK (2021). Throughout his studies he experimented with paints, glass, metal, garments, jewellery and other materials and I have acquired confidence in the skills that are required and could be used to manipulate and transform a canvas and other raw materials into works of art.

The Primary is the first solo exhibition of Andreas Ion Makrides.

Marion Pascali - The Internal Body of Desire

Group Exhibition for 45 years of Art at Gloria Gallery

Marion Pascali - The Internal Body of Desire

Gloria Gallery launches the new artistic season with a painting exhibition by Marion Pascali bearing the title “The Internal Body of Desire”. The exhibition will open on Wednesday 5th October 2021 at 7.30 p.m. 

The artists explains the theme of her current exhibition as follows: In Dante Alighieri’s work, the human desire is the springboard for a conscience movement towards the encounter with the good and beautiful, God. As such, desire in everyday life- in all its manifestations- constitutes a “staircase” towards the truth of the Divine. 

The four desires as described in the ancient Hindu philosophy are: “dharma”, the desire to become what you are destined to be, “artha”, the desire for prosperity, “kama”, the desire for pleasures like intimacy, love, beauty and “moshka”, the desire for spiritual fulfilment.

The multifaceted desire, at the core of our existence, always pushes us forward. It is the force which encourages the collecting of goods, the spiritual along with the material.

It is a fire of rebirth, a diversion from the status quo and the inertia in our lives, which enhances our emotional and spiritual metamorphosis.

It is a yearning for creativity that promotes the transcendence of limits.

It is the ignition of experimentation, a tempestuous and exhilarating child-like game which draws one to their own self-realization.

It is the love for freedom, a celestial destination exploring the universe in search for a reconnection with the divine.

Whether one picks up the sun or a ribbon, ultimately, they will find beneath it desire, which is the very need and thirst of internal change as well as the motivating power that urges life on. “

Marion Pascali (b. 10/2/1967) was born in England by Cypriot parents. During her studies in the science sector of the Pancyprian Gymnasium in Nicosia, the artist received drawing and painting lessons from the well-known Cypriot artist Andreas Charalambous. Subsequently she studied Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence under the supervision of the professors and artists F.Farulli and G.Ulivi. In the course of her studies, she was inspired by “Performance Art” which led her not only to the creation of a book ‘object d’art’ and the intention of its audio-visual expression, but also to further studies in the field of theatre. She received an MA award from Kings College and Rada in London in “Text and Performance”. 

For the last fifteen years she works as an art teacher at the Junior and Senior School in Nicosia, whilst concurrently continuing her creative path in the field of the arts. She has in her record three solo exhibitions and has participated in four group exhibitions. 

Book of poems and drawings: PASCALI, M. 2x4 = ∞ or of divergence figures. 2nd ed. Marion Pascali, 1997.

The exhibition opens on the 5thof October and will remain open until the 1st of November 2022 .

Opening Hours: Monday – Friday 10.30 – 12.45 & 17.30 – 20.00 Saturday 10.30 – 12.45

Argyris Konstantinos - Greece an image a history

Gloria Gallery in Nicosia hosts an exhibition of works dedicated to the anniversary of National Polygenesis by Argyris Konstantinos.

The exhibition will be prefaced by the Professor of the University of Naples, George Georgis. The poet Pitsa Galazi writes the following about the exhibition: “Argyris returns with a big and special new solo exhibition. Argyris's exhibition is original and was worked on the occasion of the anniversary of National Polygenesis and is essentially an artistic journey to ancient Greece. The excellent painter, having dealt with all the materials, is now returning, presenting an exhibition with drawings and shading that give elaborate works, strongly reminiscent of engravings. His work shows courage and patience but also immense love for people and objects that take us back to the time of misery and humanity. Absolutely monumental, Argyris, as he showed us in his previous exhibitions, returns to remind us of old Greece. Nice tsoliades, Pontians, Cretans, traditional dances, traditional costumes, couples, families of another era, parades, students in the classrooms, children in the fields and the countryside, traditional professions from the glaze to the idiot of Spathari, lanterns, women work in yards and fields. Scenes from the occupation and the refugees, reminding that this year marks the 100th anniversary of the Asia Minor catastrophe. A huge memory that fit everything and a great talent that portrayed everything accurately, transforming his memories into unique images by the leading painter of the younger art generation who insists on turning us back to the past, this time with drawings confirming his talent. . He skillfully handles the tonal gradations, from white to different grays to dark blacks and with excellent writing quality he presents works that give us a world that turns to pride but also to the difficulties of that time with a unique artistic journey. An exhibition that deserves to be seen and commented on for its craftsmanship, originality and courage. " Argyris Konstantinou was born in Limassol. He initially studied at the Doxiadis School with a scholarship to the Department of Graphic Arts. He then studied Painting at the Athens School of Fine Arts with a scholarship from I.K.Y. for all the years of his study at the School. He studied in the preliminary year with teachers T. Patraskidis and M. Gavathas and in the following years in the Laboratory of P. Tetsis. He graduated in 1989 with honors. He attended the laboratories of the same School of Engraving and Hagiography. The function of memory is the dominant feature of his work. Through his "Brides" that he worked on for a decade, he deposited his own stamp on contemporary Cypriot and wider Greek art. His most important cycles: The landscapes, the figures, the naked, the still lifes, witnesses of freedom, the brides, the watercolors, the memories of innocence, the markets, the children of another era, traditional Greek costumes, his musicals yesterday, in theater stage, Greece an image a story.

Lefteris Olympios and Johannes van Vugt

An exhibition inspired by ten educational notebooks - Agios Georgios Pegeia

Argyris Konstantinos - Greece an image a history

After their joint exhibition entitled Autobiographical in 2018 in Amsterdam, the work of the two artists is reunited this time at Gloria Gallery in Nicosia. The exhibition will open on Tuesday 22 February 2022 at 7.30.

Lefteris Olympios presents a large series of drawings on paper in ink and tempera entitled "Does King Alexander live?" It is a series about the mermaid, the mythical sister of Alexander the Great, seen from various angles. She is the mermaid who raises the storm and sinks the ships when she is told that her brother does not live, she is the mermaid Medusa with the snake hair and Pegasus, is the pregnant mermaid, is the Meluzini of the waters and the rivers, is also the Virgin Mary, mermaid of Myrivilis. Good and evil coexist. The work is painted spontaneously and always in the personal Olympios’s way.

Johannes van Vugt exhibits a series of small works of oil on canvas entitled "Snapshots". Van Vugt has created his own archive by painting his pictures as if they were postcards from the past: the small and serial set up produce a cinematographic character. Some of the works are directly related to his own personal world while others indirectly through the use of other people's photos. And that is what makes this series part of a collective memory.

Johannes van Vugt was born in Rijswijk, the Netherlands. He studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Amsterdam and at the Academy of Fine Arts in St. Joost in Breda. He regularly exhibits his work in the Netherlands and abroad and his works are in private and public collections.

Lefteris Olympios was born in Limassol, Cyprus in 1953. Helives and works in Amsterdam. He studied graphic arts at the Doxiadis School and painting, Iconography, Fresco and Mosaic at the Athens School of Fine Arts. He studied painting and sculpture at the Free Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague. In the summer of 1985 he visited the IJmuider Kring, an art community in IJmuiden, a village just outside Amsterdam. His contact with this group and especially the painter Lei Moulin was decisive for the subsequent course of his work. Lefteris Olympios settled permanently in the Netherlands and regularly exhibits his work in Cyprus, Greece and the Netherlands. His work is in major private and public collections.

The exhibition opens on Tuesday 22 February at 7.30pm.

Duration: 22.2.2022 to 15.3.2022.

"Presence"

Cristiano Dall’ara wrote the following about the artist's work: "These works are presences. Of these, seemingly simple and at first glance, you remember with pleasure and ease the shape. You carry them with you, wherever and whenever you decide to recall them in your memory. You bring them back not to escape from reality, but as an interpretive grid to discover or create new aspects of the world. Therefore, these projects are style exercises. When you then tilt your focus on them, then you seem to be part of the very act of creating them. You feel moving inside, but not at all passively, this is not an abduction. Instead, you act with a subtle sense of involvement, through a kind of partnership between the creator, the work and the viewer - with the roles changing as one enters the boundaries of the other - in a game of magic. As a result of an ever-evolving consciousness, these projects allow those involved to educate themselves through diversity and to embrace the Other."

Stefano Paci was born in Italy in 1956. He studied at the Istituto Statale d’Arte in Urbino. From 1982-1985 he worked with the "Emarginante" team in Urbino. The group created a series of musical, theatrical and visual works which were presented at an event in Italy. For many years and until 2016 he lived and worked in Cyprus. He has been living in Fano, Italy since 2016, but his relations with Cyprus remain close. He has made a series of solo exhibitions and has taken place in many group exhibitions both in Cyprus and in Italy.


The exhibition opens on Tuesday, February 1st 2022 at 7.30 pm.  

Duration: 1.2  to 19.2. 2022

BACKYART: Micro Sculpture, Jewelry, Constructions

Using materials she finds in her yard, in the workshop and elsewhere, Olga Spanou creates unique works of art:  micro-sculptures, jewelry and constructions.

 In Olga Spanou's art, it is not important what you do, but how you do it and why. Nothing depends on the logic of the current. Her works are based on a personal expression of freedom in choosing an inner good. In the absolute identification of the personal creative moment, with the eternity of creation. In the absolute redefinition of the past and the present with the eternal.

Olga Spanou was born in 1955 in Prague. She studied at the Prague School of Fine Arts. Since 1983 she lives and works in Cyprus. She is married to the sculptor Leonidas Spanos. She has made 14 solo exhibitions, and participated in several group exhibitions. In this exhibition she will present her latest work.

The exhibition opens at 7.30 pm on December 16, 2021.

 "Metaphysics A: Being and Time"

Former MP and MEP of AKEL, Takis Hatzigeorgiou, will inaugurate the exhibition of Dr. Evangelos Konstantelos, entitled “Metaphysics A: Being and Time“. The new artistic proposal of Evangelos Konstandelos is developed in the contemporary space of Abstract Art, with themes that concern philosophical reflection and have ontological content. The essence is the black, which floods the artistic creations, redefining and reshaping a dialectic long forgotten. The opening of a dialogue that begins with the awareness of the substance, which revealed man. Black, in monochrome paintings, has the same projection properties of what really exists in the world of Being and non-Being. It is the path to Zero in the "Black Square" of Kazimir Malevich, it is Infinity and Multiplicity in the black creations of Ant Reinhard. But mainly it is color and not color, as Pierre Soulage explains. The course of man's thought towards Zero and towards Infinity, coordinates and pulsates the contradictions that constitute the Opening of the World and spreads within it as Time. It is the first metaphysics, which instilled real meaning in human thought and is presented in the paintings as a substance beyond black. As the beginning of a modern awareness of the course of society and culture. An awareness that opposes wear and tear and decline. 

Evangelos Konstantelos is an academic and artist. He graduated from the School of Fine Arts of the University of Ioannina. Engraving, Painting, Freehand drawing, Sculpture, Mural, Photography, Scenography, Facilities, Comics, New Media and Digital Art will shape the way of expression and creation on a practical level, even participating in many group exhibitions, events and festivals in Greece, Spain and the United Kingdom. At the same time, with the practical exercise of the visual media, he will engage in a thorough study of the History and Theory of Art and Cultures, Philosophy and Aesthetics, Semiology, Theory of Criticism and Communication. In 2006 he will go to the United Kingdom for postgraduate studies in Engraving, as a scholarship holder of the State Scholarship Foundation (IKY). During his postgraduate studies he took part in group exhibitions in Manchester and London and participated in studies by TATE in Liverpool and other art organizations. Having completed his postgraduate studies, now a PhD candidate, he will research at the University of Salford the historical, philosophical, ideological, cultural, political and social peculiarities in the evolution of the concept of war and the formation of the concept of the state. At the end of his doctoral dissertation, he will systematically begin the study of political philosophy, in collaboration with the then president of the Goldsmiths School of Political Science, University of London, political, theoretical and thinker of postmodern anarchism, Saul Newman, as well as teaching Comparative Metaphysics at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS, University of London).

 "Texts Nets"

Gloria Gallery presents the fourth solo exhibition of paintings by Andreas Karousios. 

Andreas Karousios was born in 1978 in Athienou. He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Thessaloniki in the atelier of Professor G. Skolfinos and graduated in 2004 with honors. In his new solo exhibition, he will present 89 works measuring 35x50 cm with themes inspired by nature, the pulse of life and the four seasons. Vibrant bright colors alternate with soft pastel shades.

The works he will present are a work that thrives through emotions, memories and moods. Speaking about his works, he mentions "Painting with colored pencils and inks on paper pressed on wood. Don't like the word pressed? Stuck then ... so that they never separate. The setting up of the works in the space creates an adjacent landscape. The importance of recalling memory lies in the fact that it is likely to be instantaneous - product "

 "Amathus - Old Limassol”

"But in my paintings, you will not see my dreams and my own associations but a clear representation of the source of information and inspiration. I try, if ever possible, to paint the swirling air, the light that illuminates, the earth that is shaken and the damage that, all together, they cause incessantly. Damage to stones often creates the most unexpected and complex formations in shape and surface. Even random assemblies resulting from all kinds of displacements are magical. The wild vegetation and the drastic and dramatic encounter of all the elements with the sky, the clouds, and the turbulent sea complete successive theatrical performances. I did what I could to give it live, so that they might be able to become a trigger or motivation for each viewer to make their own associations and myths."
