Maria Loizidou’s new, commissioned work The Place I Am Not, is a series of site-specific works that focus on the idea of ‘place’ as a protective shell for human beings. The exhibition unfolds across two venues, as a collaboration between The Hellenic Centre and the Freud Museum, London.

Maria Loizidou at the Whitechapel
 
A Century of the Artist’s Studio: 1920-2020
24 February – 5 June 2022
 
Whitechapel Gallery presents a 100-year survey of the studio through the work of artists and image-makers from around the world.
Whether it be an abandoned factory, an attic or a kitchen table, it is the artist’s studio where the great art of our time is conceived and created. In this multi-media exhibition, the wide-ranging possibilities and significance of these crucibles of creativity take centre stage and new art histories around the modern studio emerge through striking juxtapositions of under-recognised artists with celebrated figures in Western art history.
 
The exhibition includes paintings, sculptures, installations and films depicting the studio as work of art and presents documentation of artists’ studios by world-renowned photographers and film-makers. A series of ‘studio corners’ also recreate the actual environments where great art has been produced.

Look Under The Hood
at Garage Art Gallery, Nicosia
27 September - 31 October 2019
In the context of a retrospective approach, the artist shapes a platform for workshops, discussions and challenges for the production of thought and new proposals.

Loizidou re-connects with 22 venues in Nicosia, with which she has collaborated over the course of her 35 years of work. In collaboration with artists, art theorists, journalists, poets and historians, new synergies are proposed, adapted to the current activities of each venue.

This approach contributes to understanding our dialectical relationship with art and the city, thanks to the diversity of the reasons supporting it and by questioning the means of documentation of memory.
