We would like to start the New Year by showing paintings that we have recently received form Yekaterinburg in Russia. Yekaterinburg is located in the Asian part of Russia, 1667 km east of Moscow, and the city is located on the west side of the Ural Mountains. It is also the most important industrial and cultural center of the Ural federation.

Our partner and trained Peacepainting Instructor Elena Nikitina regularly holds workshops in Yekaterinburg, and we have together created many projects and exchanges between Norway and Russia, e.g. between Nenets and Sámi minorities.

During the pandemic, the exchange opportunities have been limited. Instead we have started shipping physical paintings between Norway and Russia.

Recently we received a new selection of paintings from Russia. These paintings made by children in Yekaterinburg will later be exhibited in Norway.
