13th International Biennial of Small Plastic
23. 6. 1997 – 14. 9. 1997
One can maintain that the biennials have mainly stuck to small plastic as a »genre«, so this is for the first time that the biennial has brought small plastic with a defined theme featuring a common artistic and creative starting point.
Thus the thirteenth biennial tends to present small sculpture featuring constructivist geometric elements, created by constructivist or concrete art in the shape of kinetic sculpture, luminescent object, etc., made from various solid materials.
