INFORMATION ABOUT WORLD PRINT FESTIVAL



>From 10th November 1998 till 20th December 1998 big World Print Festival
will take place in Slovenia in organization of AGART Art Association.
Slovenia is a small middle European country having a great print
tradition and as such is very suitable for such a project. In seven art
centers , expositions of print artists from the whole world will be
opened at the same time. In each gallery a separate print technique will
be presented.
In such a way the artists will compete for prizes in the same technique.
Maybe this manner of presentation and competition will be more
interesting and attractive as classical forms of print bienales.  The
number  of grand prix will be equal to the number of presented
techniques.

During the Festival a Congress of print artists will be organized in a
beautiful touristic center Bled, that will try to give answers on the
problems of modern print creation.

The organizer expects that the majority of artists will present
classical techniques, but newer print suggestions (maybe electronic) as
well as print inovations will be welcome.

The Statute and Entry Form can be seen on  Internet
