The Discovery of the Sun

From December 7, 2024, to March 2, 2025, the Jmuseo in Jesolo hosts the exhibition The Rediscovery of the Sun: Illustration of the Late 20th Century in Sarmede, celebrating the legacy of Štěpán Zavřel, a Czech artist who transformed Sarmede into an international center for children's illustration.
The exhibition presents 70 works divided into five sections, all connected by a respectful and honest view of childhood. The display reflects the shared thoughts of illustrators on how the illustrated book defends children's rights, continuing the work initiated with the foundation of the International Children's Illustration Exhibition in 1983 and the School in 1988.
