A salon is a gathering of people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine taste and increase their knowledge of the participants through conversation. These gatherings often consciously followed Horace’s definition of the aims of poetry, “either to please or to educate” (“aut delectare aut prodesse est”). Salons, commonly associated with French literary and philosophical movements of the 17th and 18th centuries, were carried on until quite recently, in urban settings, among like-minded people.

Gallery MC continues with informal gatherings and hosts works created in the last year by artists connected with us thru exhibitions, performances, exchanges and friendship. Some of this year’s participants are: Don Porcaro, Barbara Crimella, Predrag Dimitrijevic, Carolyn Sheenan, Robert Dandarov, Toshihisa Yoda, Junko Yoda, Dragan Poposki Dada, Ismet Ramikevic, Petra Varl, Gorazd Poposki, Scherezade Garcia, iliana emilia garcia, Shoba, Aga Ousseinov, Irina Rujak, Maria Pavlovska and Dragan Ilic.
