Members of the "Gambatte" group are dedicated to the noble and primordial material of clay. Their works presented during the gala opening of Vila Bianca are testimony to the fact that creativity is in human nature. Since then, their ideas, contents and artistic and formal approaches have conceptually evolved, while their technical and technological requirements have been improved.

With their exhibition entitled White Masks, members of the ceramicist group Gambatte have in their own way responded tot the excellent opera Črne maske (Black masks), which was staged in Maribor as one of the main events of the European Capital of Culture in 2012.
The masks tell the story of Velenje seen and felt by the makers of the masks. Velenje is a town that never grows old. A town that expresses its wishes, strengths and ambitions in cultural and all other areas through the actions of its people. The masks express their gratitude to the town and its inhabitants.
