The works of artists from North and South Ossetia for the first time are being exhibited in the Vincent Van Gogh Museum in Etten-Leur. The exhibition entitled "Inspiration", which brought together over 100 paintings by Ossetian artists, is included in the program of the Days of Ossetian Culture in Europe, TASS reports.

Museum visitors can see the works by 23 artists, both venerable and young. The exposition will last until August 5 within the walls of the legendary museum, opened in the city where Van Gogh began his career. 

The Days of Ossetian Culture have not been held for more than two years due to the coronavirus pandemic. The organizers of the project said that they received invitations from the countries of Latin America and Asia to hold events aimed at getting acquainted with the Ossetian culture.

The days have been held since 2010, their program included dozens of round table discussions, master classes, film screenings, concerts of Ossetian artists in the capitals and other cities of European countries.
