LOST HERITAGE CYPRUS EXHIBITION
That this House welcomes the new Lost Heritage exhibition at Gallery K in London running until 30 April 2009; commends the work of the photographer Doros Partasides in bringing together an exhibition of works by well-known artists highlighting the damage to the cultural heritage of Cyprus from the division of the island; notes the substantial loss and damage to icons, mosaics, wall-paintings and artefacts in monasteries and churches dating from the fifth to the 16th century; further notes the ongoing negotiations between President Christofias and Mr Talat and hopes that a settlement will lead to the restoration of Cypriot heritage; and urges the Government to do all it can to support a reunited Cyprus on an agreed basis by Cypriots.
