THE «FORM» ASSOCIATI The members of the «Form» Association are the artists who differ in age and creative tendencies. But all of them are of the same opinion that development of the Art is very much the development of the Form.

That's why the Association was named «Form». Its formation is the reaction to the lasting struggle of dogmatic trend against the so called «formalism».

The Association was founded in 1987 after a group of unofficial artists was invited to exhibit their pictures in the town of Kohtla-Yarve in Estonia. Later the Exhibition in the State Estonian Museum «Kadriorg» in Tallinn took place, it was followed by the Exhibitions in Minsk and once again in Estonia during the All-Union Seminar on the problems of Unofficial Art in Narva in May 1988.

The present publication confirms the fact of fruitful cooperation between the SPC «CENTER» and the artistic association «FORM». Taking the grate part of concern, «CENTER» gives the artists vast opportunities for intensive creative activity, which raises confidence in everybody.

The artists and the organizer are greatful to everybody who helped to organize this Exhibition and are looking forward to further contacts.
