SPEL Building
Ammochostou Road
Old Nicosia
After the decision of the Ministry, the SPEL building in Old Nicosia will be transformed so that it may operate as a branch of the existing State Gallery of Contemporary Cypriot Art in Stasinou Street. The SPEL building will accommodate modern art projects from the State Collection dated from the 50’s, including pieces which are of non-conventional and new media.
