Prime Minister Edi Rama on Sunday shared images from this work, made by the artist Sadik Spahija.

The artwork “Zabel” authored by the sculptor Sadik Spahija, has already brought to life the roundabout at the exit of Koplik.
This poetic sculpture undertakes to interpret and fuse nature with metal, wood and greenery, leaving a good taste for all travelers traversing this national axis which is being enriched with such works of art.

“Zabel” is one of the winning works of the “Art in Public Space” International Competition, coordinated by the Ministry of Culture, in support of independent artists.

The International Contest “Art in Public Spaces” received 132 proposals of artists from different countries of the world.

“Art in Public Space” is a multifaceted initiative, for which the Albanian government has allocated a fund of about 200 million ALL.
18 public spaces have been identified (1 public institution – hospital), 12 roundabouts, 4 overpasses, 1 junction).
