Bibiana – International House of Art for Children

BIBIANA is a cultural institution with international activity. It was founded in 1987 as a partner of a world-known event with a long tradition "Biennial of Illustration Bratislava." From the beginning it was professionally specialised as a gallery institution supporting a development of illustration works for children and improving quality of literature for children in Slovakia and abroad. Gradually, with the help of new people and new ideas, the philosophy of BIBIANA began to change, possibilities of development and spreading art for children became wider, creating a rich spectrum of genres. It also developed the comparison of Slovak works and their theoretical reflection in international contexts.
