During the conference “Art with a Spark”, nine artists will talk about their own creative activities using high temperature. The conference will be a forum for exchanging ideas within broadly understood art created with the use of fire – from technological, historical, aesthetic issues and formal considerations and ending with the presentation of individual achievements of the artists invited to the festival.
