Ohrid, 18 July 2025 (MIA) – Angelina Spirovska and Vlado Mukoski's exhibition of 17 contemporary fresco paintings will open Saturday evening at the Lapidarium Cultural Center in Ohrid. The paintings, which resemble pieces of a wall, were created by the two mural artists and art conservators earlier this year.

The exhibit is titled "The Way of the Fresco." The artists were inspired by Byzantine fresco painting, organizers said, adding that the show is "a visual dialogue with the tradition."

Spirovska and Mukoski have worked as mural art conservators for over two decades. Relying on authentic mural painting techniques, they painted their contemporary frescoes on fresh plaster "to create art that speaks the language of the modern times," organizers said.

"The Way of the Fresco" was organized by the Ohrid Museum and Institute for Protection of Cultural Monuments, with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. mr/
