  • The Roma people in the arts

    The Roma people have always been present in the culture or the nations they lived amongst, which resulted in their depictions in various arts, including painting. The publication presents reproductions of paintings and graphic art by Polish and Roma artists from the collection of the District Museum in Tarnow, and a unique private collection of post cards made available by Andrzej Grzymała-Kazłowski.

    The eighth issue of the literary magazine entitled “Radar”, published by the Villa Decius Association. The premiere had its place in Lviv during the 20th Forum of Publishers (September 10 – 15, 2013).
