The innovation of the permanent exhibition In Sight at the Old Castle in Banská Štiavnica presents a monumental installation featuring an exceptional collection of historical hand-painted shooting targets. To achieve this, the forgotten concept of art salons is revitalised. Referencing to the time of the creation of the exhibited artworks and their previous use in the form of interior cladding for the now defunct city shooting range. Beyond the targets themselves, the exhibition shows the generosity of the sacral space, historically utilised as an armoury, and offers panoramic view of the city listed as the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
