The project was started in 2005. It is dedicated to establishing and promoting partnership cooperation between galleries, museums, curators and artists in joint action to recognize local art scenes and visibility of contemporary art practice in the region, and this is the exhibition of the fifth cycle.
"By promoting and presenting local scenes, the project contributes to their valorization as well as the process of decentralization in culture, increasing the visibility of the current regional art scene and promoting the mobility of curators, artists and artistic ideas," said Grković.
The exhibition is open until April 7, and in the second half of the year it will be held in Bulgaria and Montenegro.
