The work of a handful of prominent Montenegrin artists has crossed international borders this week, as their works go on exhibit at the Hofburg castle in Austria.

Supported by the Agency for Int e r n-ational Scientific, Ed u c-ational, Cultural, and Technical Co operation (ZAMTES), 22 professors of the Cetinje Faculty of Fine Arts are showcasing a number of paintings, sculptures and ph otographic pieces, beginning February 2.
