Description

Opening of the exhibition on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, at 5:00 PM at the City Theatre.
The exhibition will last until October 28, 2026.
Open one hour before the performance and during the performance. Lithography (from the Greek lithos – stone, grafein – to write) or stone printing is the oldest planographic technique (printing from a flat surface), discovered in 1796 by Alois Senefelder. It is based on the chemical properties of fine-grained limestone, which absorbs printing ink in areas drawn with greasy ink, while the unmarked areas remain hydrophilic and repel the ink.
