CYLAND Foundation Inc is a Miami-based nonprofit working at the intersection of art and technology. Its roots lie in cultural exchange between American and Eastern European art communities, begun in 1999. In 2005, this work expanded to building a multicultural artistic community.
CYLAND was founded in 2007 as an international artists’ group, and CYLAND Foundation Inc was established in Miami in 2021. It brings together artists, curators, technologists, educators and thinkers through CYFEST, its annual international festival, as well as visual exhibitions, sound art, video art and educational programming.
Festivals and exhibitions in Baltimore, New York, Yerevan, Washington, Venice, London and Berlin have connected artists and audiences across borders. Alongside articles in international journals, lectures and exhibitions, CYLAND develops and uses new-media technologies to reach artists and the wider public around the world.
CYLAND houses the largest online archive of Eastern European video art, organizes exhibitions internationally and is the force behind CYFEST.
