'Ela, Ela' is the innovative name under which International Artists who originally met at the Cyprus College of Art are exhibiting their latest works. ‘ela,ela’ is now exhibiting at ‘La Viande’ gallery in Shoreditch, East London, UK. La Viande Gallery, 3 Charlotte Road, London, EC2A 3DH, UK from 1st to 9th September 2007.
Cyprus College of Art is a long running establishment, having forged its current roots in 1976 in Lempa, in the rural outskirts north of Pafos. The college was originally founded in 1969 by its principal Stass Paraskos. Stass' paintings hold international acclaim, yet his art and life remain firmly rooted in his home country of Cyprus.
Professional artists from around the world joined together to work in a group studio environment, engaging in challenging constructively their own work and the practice of others. Led by Stass' painterly influence, this postgraduate diploma was an invaluable source of new ideas, experimentation and a time for play, and lateral thinking within the college’s basic facilities and ethos of simple, uninterrupted making and living. Although joined by a common theme of exploring the abundance of nature, culture, history and social structures of Cyprus, artists in this show come from diverse backgrounds and experiences, originating from Great Britain, Ireland and America.
