While in town, Schafhausen delivered an afternoon lecture at the National Gallery of Art as part of a conversation series that featured Ayse Erkman, Sebastian Cichocki, and Marjetica Potrč. With a rather rocky history unto itself, the National Gallery has recently blossomed under its latest director, Erzen Shkololli, an artist and cofounder of the alternative space EXIT, which brought artists like Erkman, Dan Perjovschi, and Anri Sala to Shkololli’s hometown of Pejë. “It’s a luxury to be just an artist here,” Shkololli told me. “If you’re serious, then you have to help others to build the scene.”
