To have an active artistic life in Tirana can be complicated sometimes, but interesting initiatives, such as Zeta Gallery, fill up a great space in this need for art. I am quite an artsy person and I really appreciate the impact that independent galleries like this bring to Albanian cultural life. As such, Zeta Gallery is a centre dedicated to the promotion and exhibition of contemporary art, produced both by already established as well as emerging artists. What I think is amazing when I visit it is the atmosphere of fruitful exchange between artists, the public, critics and even researchers and professors of the artistic sphere, not only in Albania, but in the region and sometimes, Europe.
Art is something that brings people together, and Zeta really contributes to the active contemporary art scene in Albania. Zeta occupies a surface of roughly 150m2 in the heart of Tirana. Its walls are painted with a snowy white colour and are always holding paintings or other artistic works. Zeta is thus usually busy with preparing exhibitions, but also besides exhibitions, ZETA hosts educational programs, workshops and other events, in cooperation with local and international partners, always focusing on young artists, who can find there a space for expressing their art.
