Topic of the 7th International Artist’s Book Triennial in Vilnius named “Error” was meant to suggest experiments and freedom. The curator of the exhibition, Prof.  Kestutis Vasiliunas, sought encouraging new and unexpected turns of artistic creation. Some of the artists grasped the idea, but many did not care much to adopt the concept of the organizer and just followed their own insights. However, this has not led to anything like eccentricity, or some loss of professional quality, – rather, conversely, the selected works have met the highest artistic standards, demonstrated earnest endeavours of the authors and intolerance of professional “errors”.
