[s] BUK1 – Student Biennial of the Art of the Book
The student biennial of the art of the book derives from the previous cooperation of the House of Culture “Studentski grad” and the Faculty of Applied Arts in Belgrade, with the aim of presenting the current production of the art of books created at the art academies in Serbia and abroad. As it has been shown that the interest in such books in the world today is great, and in the desire to create a network of faculties and academies that disregard this type of visual research and expression, we decided to establish an International Student Biennale that would bring this media closer and closer to the media at the same time the popularity.
The project includes an exhibition, workshops, presentations, lectures and a publication on the art of the book, which is an exciting area of exploration and experimentation with the image, text, fonts, materials, way of browsing and types of links. In this way, it is possible to announce the content of the various disciples: graphics, paintings, sculptures, designs, photographs, literature, comics, applied sculptures, typography, calligraphy, conceptual art, illustrations.
The exhibition presents books of students from the arts academies from Belgium, Estonia, Poland, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia.
The exhibition will open the order. prof. Daniela Fulgosi, Dean of the Faculty of Applied Arts.
