schemnitz gallery

If you are a bit tired of hundreds and hundreds years of mining history in Banská Štiavnica, visit this contemporary art gallery. It is a fresh project done with a lot of enthusiasm. If you don't appreciate Slovak contemporary art, you can admire wonderful view from the windows. Admission is voluntary. I missed a catalogue of previous exhibitions. Bring an open mind and try to understand the artist. A short documentary about the artist can be watched. The staff makes you feel comfortable, even there are only three small rooms, you can stay there for a longer time and have an interesting discussion. If you are a bit hungry after this experience a restaurant is in the ground floor of the building.
