This image captures an exhibition display featuring various documents and a children's art booklet, likely showcased within a glass case as indicated by reflections. The background is dark, providing a contrast for the displayed items. On the left, several typed and printed papers in Greek and French are shown. One small black card states "Proclamations issued by PESK in various languages," indicating these documents relate to an organization. Below this, a blue card labels "Minutes of the regular general assembly of the Panhellenic Committee for Solidarity with Cyprus (PESK) on 7 May 1979," accompanying a lengthy Greek text discussing the Cyprus issue, human rights, and Turkish policies. Towards the right, a prominent black card features text in both Greek and English. It contains a quote from Lili Alivizatou in 2006: "The PESK headquarters were here. We were PESK. They still send things to this address as PESK, and I reply that there is no longer any PESK but I'm always happy to receive." This text suggests the historical nature of the organization and a personal connection to its legacy. Below this, a folded pamphlet or booklet titled "ΧΑΡΕΣ ΚΑΙ ΛΥΠΕΣ ΖΩΓΡΑΦΙΣΜΕΝΕΣ ΑΠΟ ΤΑ ΠΑΙΔΙΑ ΤΗΣ ΚΥΠΡΟΥ" (Joys and Sorrows Painted by the Children of Cyprus) is displayed. Its cover features black and white children's drawings depicting figures, airplanes, houses, and a Red Cross symbol. An accompanying orange card explains that this is a "List of children's artworks from the exhibition organised in 1979 by the magazine To Rodi, the 'Ora' gallery and PESK." Inside the booklet, a list of names, ages (e.g., "11 χρονών"), and school grades is visible. The display chronicles aspects of the Panhellenic Committee for Solidarity with Cyprus (PESK), covering its official communications, historical meetings, and a poignant art exhibition from 1979 that showcased children's perspectives. The items span various dates, with significant mentions of 1979 and a reflective note from 2006.
