ξανά μαζί / tekrar birlikteyiz / together again
bicommunal ceramic art exhibition 2015
Ξανά μαζί Μια χώρα, ένας λαός, ένα χώμα κοινό... που κουβαλάει την Ιστορία αυτού του τόπου. Ένα συναπάντημα των ανθρώπων καλλιτεχνών Τουρκοκυπρίων και Ελληνοκυπρίων φέρνει πάντα το μήνυμα της Ειρήνης. Το ίδιο χώμα που περπάτησαν πάνω οι πρόγονοι μας αποτελεί και την πρώτη τους ύλη μαζί με τη φωτιά και το νερό τα τρία ζωογόνα στοιχεία , το ίδιο χώμα που μας ενώνει είτε το θέλουμε είτε όχι. Οι καλλιτέχνες στέλνουν το μήνυμα της ομόνοιας, της αδελφοσύνης και της συναίνεσης για επανένωση. Η Κεραμική τέχνη άκμασε στην Κύπρο από την αρχαιότητα, αφήνοντας δείγματα μοναδικού κάλλους και καλλιτεχνικής αξίας, κληρονομιά στο λαό μας και στο παγκόσμιο. Αυτή την κληρονομιά καλούνται να προστατεύσουν και να συνεχίσουν οι σύγχρονοι κεραμίστες , και σίγουρα η συνεργασία μεταξύ τους μόνο καλά αποτελέσματα μπορεί να γεννήσει. “Ξανά Μαζί” είναι ο τίτλος της έκθεσης αφού και στο παρελθόν περπάτησαν στα ίδια μονοπάτια ανταλλάζοντας απόψεις , παρουσιάζοντας τη δουλειά τους και στις δύο κοινότητες, χαρίζοντας στον κόσμο εκθέσεις μεγάλου ενδιαφέροντος, τόσο για το κοινό της Κύπρου όσο και για το διεθνές γίγνεσθαι στο χώρο της Κεραμικής. Η Τέχνη αποτελούσε πάντοτε το προζύμι στην διαμόρφωση πολιτισμένων λαών, έδινε τα φώτα της για μια καλύτερη και υγιή κοινωνία και στήριζε πάντοτε την Ειρήνη . Αυτό ακριβώς κάνουν στην παρούσα έκθεση οι καλλιτέχνες καταθέτοντας ένα κομμάτι της ψυχής τους ενώπιον μας, καλώντας μας να ανοίξουμε τα μάτια μπροστά στην ομορφιά της τέχνης.

Tekrar Birarada Tek ülke, tek millet, tek ortak zemin... buranın tarihini taşıyan. Kıbrıslı Türk ve Kıbrıslı Rum sanatçıların buluşması her zaman barış mesajı taşır. Atalarımızın yürümüş olduğu topraklar aynı zamanda ateş ve su ile birleşerek onların ham maddelerini oluşturan elementtir. Bu coğrafya bizi birbirimize bağlamaktadır. Sanatçılar uyum, kardeşlik ve tekrar birleşme mesajlarını vermektedir. Seramik sanatı Kıbrıs’ta antik çağdan beri var olmuş ve gelişirken arkasında kendine özgü güzellikleri ve sanatsal değeri ile öne çıkan birçok miras bırakmıştır. Modern sanatçılara bu mirası korumaları ve devam ettirmeleri çağrısı yapılmaktadır. Şüpesiz ki sanatçılar arasındaki iş birliği olumlu sonuçlar getirecektir. Sanatçılar daha önceleri de bu yollardan seramik alanında fikir alışverişinde bulunarak, eserlerini yerel ve uluslararası fuarlarda hem Kıbrıs toplumuna hem da uluslararası çevrelere sergileyerek geçtikleri için “Tekrar birarada” olarak isimlendirilmiştir. Sanat, tarih boyunca uygar milletlerin yaratılışında hamur görevi görmüş, daha iyi ve daha sağlıklı bir toplumun oluşmasına öncülük etmiş ve barışı desteklemiştir. işte sanatçılarda bu sergide bizlere ruhlarından bir kesit sunarak ve bizi gözlerimizi sanatın güzelliği için açmaya davet ederek bunu gerçekleştirmeyi hedeflemektedir.

Together again One country, one nation, one common ground... that carries the history of this place. An encounter of people, Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot artists always brings the message of Peace. The same soil that our ancestors walked on is their raw material, combined with fire and water the three lifegiving elements, the same soil that unites us, whether we like it or not. The artists are sending the message of harmony, brotherhood and consensus on reunification. Ceramic Art has flourished in Cyprus since antiquity, leaving samples of unique beauty and artistic value as a heritage to our people and the world. This is the heritage that contemporary ceramists are called to protect and continue, and certainly the cooperation between them can give only good results. “Together Again� is the title of the exhibition as in the past they walked the same paths exchanging views, showing their work in both communities, offering to the world works of art of great interest, both for the public in Cyprus and on the international scene in the field of Ceramics. Art has always been a catalyst in creating civilized nations, giving its light for a better and healthier society and always supporting Peace. That it is what the artists are doing with this exhibition, depositing a piece of their soul before us, inviting us to open our eyes to the beauty of Art.
