APOTHEKE is a dynamic, multi-disciplinary cultural institute, supporting and showcasing contemporary art, ideas and culture. Over a 15-year period APOTHEKE has hosted a program of groundbreaking art exhibitions, workshops, talks, ad-hoc residencies, free bars and pop-up recording studios, which have critically reflected on arts and culture. Radical from its inception, APOTHEKE is dedicated to introducing and promoting audacious attempts of contemporary artists, designers, theorists, writers, activists and others, in rigorous, new frameworks and invigorating modalities.

Instrumental to this has always been the main site of APOTHEKE. Housed in a rare, small-scale industrial building, found within the back-streets of the walled part of the city of Nicosia, APOTHEKE has evolved alongside the broader network of innovative engagement with the art and culture in and of the capital city of Cyprus as well. In coexistence with its acclaimed, international program, it has formed allegiances and relationships with a variety of individuals and collectives in Nicosia and has played a substantial role in offsite projects ranging from the Nicosia Architectural Biennial to autonomist street festivals. As part of its passion and ethos for the city of Nicosia, APOTHEKE makes as much use as possible of workshops and technical know-how found especially within the municipality of Nicosia.

APOTHEKE has also established numerous collaborations and working partnerships with international and local institutions.
