“VILNIUS 2022”

During the entire period, hundreds of artists from various countries of the world – Latvia, Estonia, Spain, France, Italy, Japan, Venezuela, Great Britain, Germany, Georgia and others – participated in the biennale, representing enamel art and supporting its continuity.

The theme of the 9th Enamel Biennale is impression. As the curator of the biennale, Marytė Dominaitė (Gurevičienė) states – “When creating, an artist experiences satisfaction, being able to implement ideas and hopes to convey this feeling to the viewer, through the color or technical solution of the work. Impression – in Latin Impressio, is a work of art that conveys a personal impression or mood.”

We invite all enamel art creators who cherish the deep traditions of this art to become part of the biennale of enamel art and offer works in the following categories: traditional enamel technique category (cloisonne, etc.) and enamel – conceptual (jewelry, objects, plaques, etc.).

The exhibition will be presented not only in the “Meno niša” gallery, but in 2023. will travel to the Panevėžys City Art Gallery in January. ■
