Albanian Art

Gjelosh Gjokaj is a well known, multilingual, Albanian painter from Montenegro, who is a personal acquaintance of mine, and a good friend of my Montenegrin relatives.

One of them is among the people interviewed in a YouTube presentation that advocates the setup of the artistic gallery in Tuz, Montenegro. Cousin Gjoka is the very articulate, lovely white hair guy that, with painter Gjelosh, can be heard around the midpoint of this film (after the first 4 minutes).

Last month some of Gjelosh's works were exhibited also at the National Art Gallery in Tirana, Albania, as per this video.

Kudos to Albanian artists, wherever they may be!
