For ten days from August 20, the streets, passageways and parks of Croatia’s capital will be transformed by some of the country’s most notable artists, muralists and sculptors.
In collaboration with the Zagreb Tourist Board, the annual Okolo (‘Around’) initiative interprets contemporary themes through unique creations conceived for this very project, many of them site-specific.
Among the many creatives taking part this year will be the internationally renowned, Zagreb-born Lonac, recently highlighted for his transformation of a tram stop in Osijek. His huge, photorealistic works are now in evidence across the globe.
Look out, too, for the acclaimed Nikolina Ivezić, who uses several artistic disciplines – painting, sculpture, comics – to express her thoughts. For this year, it’s an ironic take on the nature of luxury.
Vitar Drinković uses multimedia to transform public space into art while Ana Sladetić creates her 3D characters by means of AD technology.
