Tania Nikulina

This year, the Luhovaný Vincent exhibition aimed to look at spas from the perspective of artistic realizations in public space.

Three guided walks through the exhibition as part of the festival also provided ample opportunity for theoretical evaluation and fruitful debate with visitors.
