Edi Hila

A major figure on the Balkan scene, Edi Hila (born 1944 in Shkodër, Albania, lives and works in Tirana) bears witness to the profound changes experienced by European post-communist societies. He develops a work of reflection on the transitory nature of the history of his country, Albania (natural border between West and East), and on the position of Albanian painting in the Mediterranean history of art.
