- Biography
Georgios E. Markou is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Fine Arts at Cyprus University of Technology.
Georgios studied Archaeology and History of Art at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens before pursuing an MA on ‘Venice and Its Legacies’ at the University of Warwick. In 2018, he completed his PhD at the University of Cambridge and subsequently held postdoctoral fellowships at Princeton University and the British School at Rome. In Autumn 2021, Georgios returned to Cambridge as a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow in the Department of History of Art.
Focusing on the example of Venetian Cyprus and the previously unrecognized artistic and cultural patronage of the island’s elite families, Georgios's first monograph challenges previous assumptions about a culturally and confessionally rigid Greek Orthodox community. Through the integration of textual and material evidence, his inaugural book-length study offers new insights to refine concepts of fluid identity, wherein individuals projected cultural characteristics traditionally thought of as oppositional.
