Prof. Dr. Tamer Şanlıdağ; “Our world is a perfect combination of differences and diversity”
Vice-Rector Prof. Dr. Tamer Şanlıdağ, in his speech, started by stating that the diversity of languages, cultures, and arts is the basis of the growth, development, and enrichment of ideas; artists also contribute to the enrichment of ideas by developing their own artistic language.

Prof. Dr. Şanlıdağ; “Each work of the artist expresses a different event, emotion. Group exhibitions also allow participants to experience many different ideas and emotions prepared by the artists at the same time. The works of artists, who are attached to different movements, styles or work dependent and independent, are exhibited under a single roof.

Prof. Dr. Şanlıdağ; “Original works in such exhibitions contribute to the development of visual culture.”
Watching the works of the artists, whose works we had the opportunity to see in their solo exhibitions, in the same place and in the same period, gives us clues and information about the artistic development of the period, both for the artists and the art lovers. The original works in such exhibitions give important ideas on the event, subject, and period and most importantly, contribute to the development of visual culture.

Prof. Dr. Şanlıdağ; “Three important elements of the exhibition; the artist, the visitor and the organizer “
Prof. Şanlıdağ said “Three important elements of exhibitions are the artist, the visitor, and the organizer. We will have the opportunity to see enjoy the artworks of artists and academicians from Turkey, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Russia, and the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Near East University, at the 353rd exhibition which is exclusively held for the Cyprus Museum of Modern Arts. In this context, I would like to thank our lecturer Erdoğan, who is the exhibition curator, our artists for their support to the Cyprus Museum of Modern Arts Project and to our dearest art lovers for their kind participation at the event, and wish you a good time.”

After the speech, Near East University Founding Rector Dr. Suat Günsel and artists cut the ribbon of the exhibition. The exhibition can be visited between 08.00-16.00 at the exhibition hall of the Near East University Hospital until 24 August 2020.
