The Dvojstrana project
The Dvojstrana project is the result of cooperation between the Department of Theory and History of Art of AFAD, the Academic Library of AFAD and the MEDIUM Gallery. Its goal is to draw the public's attention to the phenomenon of the author's book tied to the visual arts, primarily in Slovakia, but with occasional overlap abroad.
Supported by public funds through Slovak arts council.
