The Office gallery
The Office is a gallery of contemporary art, which is located in the centre of the old town of Nicosia in Cyprus. Specifically, it is located near the boundaries of the Green Zone or otherwise the Buffer Zone, which makes Nicosia the last divided capital in Europe.[1] The location is a stimulus for some artists, who have exhibited their work in the Office gallery.[2][3] It was founded in 2009 by the Greek Anastasios Gkekas.[4] Overall, it showed 13 exhibitions of Europeans and non-Europeans artists.
Art Brussels
At 2015, the Office gallery participated in the Art Brussels 2015, international art fair, presenting works of the Scottish artist Robert Montgomery and of the Greek artist Dimitri Merantza, entitled “Proof against the obtainment of new artwork”.[5]
