The purpose of the Festival is to show the top range not only in the field of mosaic, but in contemporary visual art in general.
The Festival is inspired by Small Scale Mosaic- an annual exhibition that was inaugurated by Petar Vujosevic, and that has been presented in Belgrade since 2006. The first Belgrade Mosaic Festival took place in Belgrade in 2016, which marks the 10th anniversary of the Small Scale Mosaic.
The founding principle of the Festival is a promotion of the top achievements in mosaic expression, as oposed to profanation and industralization of mosaic, that reduces it to plain technology and formalism, narrowing down the very purpose of mosaic art.
Intention of Belgrade’s Festival is to point to exceptional possibilities of this tecnique. Mosaic brings together physical materia, enchanting color of a broken stone on one side- with the invisible, metaphysical, that springs from misterious empty space between tesserae.
A deep concentation and long time that the making of mosaic requires, at some point becomes the way to inner self knowledge. In this way deeper, unpainted images reveal themselves, images that help us reveal the meaning of our own exsistence as well as an understanding of spiritual basis of life itself.
