In the primary school “Petar Zrinski” near Čakovec / Croatia Anita Kontrec has led art workshops with first and second grade pupils who were making paper collages depicting Dots and Stripes. Third and forth grade pupils were making plaster houses and were discussing the importance of having a home of ones own.

My cooperation with the Croatian most famous collector of contemporary Croatian art Dagmar Meneghello dates back to 1989. Since that time Ms Meneghello has been presenting my sculptures, picture-objects and works on paper in a series of exhibitions in Croatia and abroad. After a successful exhibition “Boris Bućan.

Exhibition CHALLENGES OF DIVERSITY, Gallery ORIS / House of Architecture, Zagreb, October 2023

Fire clay sculptures, picture-objects and works on paper, together with installations by Ljiljana Mihaljević and paintings by Natalia Borčić.

Exhibition CHALLENGES OF DIVERSITY deals with three different positions in contemporary Croatian art expressed through different media- sculpture, installation and painting by women artists belonging to three different generations. In spite of the different media we are using and idiosyncrasies of our personal artistic expression, we are connected by two major “red lines” – our long lasting friendship and artistic cooperation, as well as our continuous work on our individual authentic artistic expression.
