Andreas Mallouris and Leontios Toumpouris will present With What Remains at the Southern Cyprus Museum in Nicosia from 6 November to 31 January 2027. Curated by Cristina Anglada, the exhibition responds to the collection’s planned move. Works made for the museum engage with archaeological objects, memory, the body and the traces that remain through institutional change.
With What Remains will bring contemporary works by Andreas Mallouris and Leontios Toumpouris into the Southern Cyprus Museum’s archaeological spaces. The artists’ interventions are conceived for the building and its exhibits, engaging with a collection that is preparing for a move.[1], [2]
The museum is in Nicosia. The exhibition runs from 6 November to 31 January 2027, with Cristina Anglada as curator. The Department of Antiquities announced the project.[1]
The main collection is being prepared for transfer to the new Southern Cyprus Archaeological Museum. The existing building’s memory and its relationship with objects form the project’s setting. Toumpouris works with sculpture, fiction and collective processes, drawing archaeology and landscape into his response to that transition.[1]
Mallouris also works as a reconstructive surgeon. His art addresses bodily vulnerability and healing through images including hands, flowers and scars. Pylon Art & Culture and the fine-art programme at the University of Nicosia support the exhibition. Admission is free, and the museum closes on Mondays.[1]
