DATE: 17.01 - 14..02 EVENT: Aleksandar Srnec – A Retrospective INFO: Museum of Contemporary Art, Avenija Dubrovnik 17, phone 00385 1 605 27 00 www.msu.hr
Entitled “Invisible Presence”, this exhibition is an encounter with one of the most influential artists whose impact on Croatian art in the second half of the 20th century was significant.
Zagreb’s new Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb has enjoyed an enduring relationship with the avant-garde, and the long-awaited opening of the Museum of Contemporary Art provides the wild side of the city’s heritage with the sharp focus it deserves. Perhaps the museum’s new purpose-built home can’t compete with Bilbao’s Guggenheim in terms of jaw-dropping drama, but it nonetheless bears the individual signature that you would expect from a landmark cultural project. The raunchily zig-zagging façade designed by local architect Igor Franiæ is a direct echo of the meander motif beloved of post-war abstract artist Julije Knifer. A kaleidoscopic light display brings an additional sense of spectacle to the exterior. Despite a sprinkling of foreign works, the emphasis is on home-grown creations – and what a rich and compelling collection it is. Post-war Croatia was largely free from the kind of cultural censorship suffered by its more Sovietized East-European neighbours. Avantgarde art took root early and never lost its grip: the movement Exat 51 gave a new lease of life to abstract and geometric art, while the computer-art of New Tendencies offered an ahead-of-its-time glimpse at the digital age. The first of the big international touring exhibitions hits the museum in May 2010, when Gilbert & George show the Jack Freak Pictures first aired in London in summer 2009.

What is the relationship between science and art?

Zagreb Dance Center, photos: Sandro Lendler
Two extremely important events on Zagreb’s cultural scene took place in 2009: the city became richer by one Museum of Contemporary Art and one 1,500m2 studio oriented towards contemporary dance. The opening of each of these has been an architectural and cultural event in itself. The dance centre is situated in the heart of the city in a former cinema adapted by award-winning architects 3LHD, renowned and awarded for their avant-garde design. The centre is the brainchild of the Croatian Institute of Movement and Dance, which for 27 years has organised Dance Week Zagreb, a noted event in the world of contemporary dance throughout the region and beyond, among a host of other programmes promoting and developing leading edge choreography and dance in Croatia. It will act as a hub for dance groups and individuals alike, as well as a point of engagement with the public. More at www.plesnicentar.info.

The last edition was proclaimed by the media as the ‘most socially relevant festival’, and ‘one of the bravest and most generous artistic events in Croatia’. A hard reputation to keep indeed! This 6th edition presents quality international circus events under the concept of ‘Non-normed bodies’. Hence, it is said to stretch the borders of human possibility.
DATE: No ovem mber EVENT: Jasna Bogdanović – Sculpture INFO: MG Studio Josip Račić, Margaretska 3, phone 00385 1 481 25 99 www.moderna-galerija.hr
Stunning creations in bronze, stone, wood and inventive mixed media. On the borderline between the abstract and the figurative, her works are intimately worked spiritual processes captured for eternity in polished bronze, stone or wood. No matter which medium she uses, the artist respects its quality and structure, dictating the equivalence of partly geometrical and stylised forms, often with an undercurrent inspired by the Mediterranean. DATE: No ovem mber EVENT: Josip Zanki – Abstract landscapes INFO: MG Studio Josip Račić, Margaretska 3, phone 00385 1 481 25 99 www.moderna-galerija.hr
Over the past few years, Zanki has devoted himself to painting “mystical-alternative” Velebit mountain landscapes, so this exhibition of ten or so oils will surely be a fascinating encounter with his at once traditional and contemporary art. His depictions of verdant treetops resonate with life and have a sculptural character. Through a language of symbols and engravings, this painter’s recent canvases give the impression of a hermetic wonderland.
