About EX-ARTIS
Who EX-ARTIS is: a cultural association in Nicosia, Cyprus, working for cultural expression, creative participation and community life.
A cultural association based in Nicosia
ΠΟΛΙΤΙΣΤΙΚΟΣ ΚΙΝΗΣΗ EX-ARTIS is a cultural association based in Nicosia, Cyprus. Its name — Latin for “out of art” — reflects a simple conviction: that art is not only something to look at, but something from which shared experiences, conversations, and community grow.
The association brings together people who care about cultural life on the island: artists, organisers, and members of the public who want culture to be present in everyday places, not only in specialised venues.
Mission
EX-ARTIS is a cultural association dedicated to supporting cultural expression, creative participation, artistic exchange, and community engagement. Through cultural activities, collaborative projects, and opportunities for public participation, the association seeks to encourage creativity, preserve cultural connections, and strengthen the role of culture in everyday community life.
Cultural purpose
EX-ARTIS seeks to create conditions in which art can be made, shown, and discussed — and in which people of different backgrounds can take part. This includes events and gatherings, artistic work in public and open-air settings, and opportunities for dialogue around culture.
Community role
The association understands culture as part of community life. Its work is directed towards residents, artists, and visitors alike, with an emphasis on accessibility and on places that people already share.
Organisational approach
- Working openly and collaboratively
- Publishing only verified information about activities
- Respecting the authorship of artists and the privacy of participants
- Keeping contact with the public simple and direct
