48 years ago a group of Piran visual artists, whose spiritus movens was Pavle Zamar Zappa, organised a special painting event in picturesque Piran with its rich historical and cultural heritage for the first time: within a exactly defined period of time, visual artists from all around had to create paintings, which were then judged and awarded by a professional jury. This basic concept of the event, which they called Ex-tempore (Latin: out of the moment, improvised), has remained the same to the present. Fourteen years ago the Ex-tempore of paintings was enhanced with an Ex-tempore of ceramics, and Piran is today well-known among ceramicists beyond the borders of Europe. It is the only visual art manifestation of its kind and of a competitive nature that is organised by the Piran Coastal Galleries, in which professional and amateur visual artists and ceramicists from more than 10 countries participate.
