  • Report on Zagreb Museums
    REPORT ZAGREB MUSEUMS SUFFER HEAVY DAMAGES IN THE RECENT EARTHQUAKE THAT HIT THE CITY DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC RESTRICTIONS When disasters strike, we are always reminded how emergency preparedness is a crucial procedure that every institution has to take care about. We are also reminded how vulnerable we are and how fragile our heritage is. Only a month ago the international conference on risk management held in Dubrovnik and organised by the Ministry of Culture within the Croatian EU presidency showed numerous threats, including those for museums, that have to be addressed by authorities and experts showed what should be done to reduce existing risks. However, when a real thing occurs, we can testify how poorly we are prepared. All the weaknesses became obvious and we can clearly see what the biggest challenges are and what a long-lasting neglect to invest in prevention can do. A strong 5.5 magnitude earthquake hit Zagreb at 6.24 on Sunday, March 22nd 2020. Luckily the streets of Croatia’s capital were empty and all institutions closed thus human casualties were avoided except a 15-year old girl who died from severe injuries caused by falling objects. Only a few seconds transformed the historic centre of Zagreb. Fallen facades and chimneys, damaged roofs, crashed vehicles that were parked on the streets were piling on a demolished property-lists. The town centre, which is home to many Croatian museums, was hit in the worst way. Buildings with poor construction could not resist the earthquake in spite that the magnitude was not the highest.

    A Welcome to Zagreb As you set out to take a tour round Zagreb, determined to see its highlights, you’ll find that you’ll end up rather enjoying it. Sitting at one of its Viennese- style cafés, strolling leisurely around its streets and promenading through its parks, it’s like you’re starting out on a love affair with this city and its people. And pretty soon you’ll know that this is love in its early stage, the kind that only grows stronger in time. The cosmopolitan buzz of Zagreb will soon strike you. Everything is accessible on foot – from your hotel to the theatre, wandering around the old Upper Town or through the bustling streets of the more modern Lower Town, which has not lost an ounce of its charm despite the eternal march of time. Venture out and let the moment take hold. There is something special about the rustle of leaves as you stroll through the autumn colours of downtown Zrinjevac Park. There is magic in the reflections of the gas lanterns in the Upper Town, as the songs of the street performers evoke their own emotions with their distinctive sound. As night falls, everything becomes soft and subdued; the twinkle of candles in the cathedral and at the mystical Stone Gate; the cafés beckoning you in the twilight with their warm hues. Zagreb is special. It is a long-running tale that allows you room to write your own chapters with your own impressions, something for you to add to the story. Quite simply, Zagreb has a soul.

  • Baroque in Croatia. Presentation of Baroque Culture in Croatia in the Socialist Period
    Baroque in Croatia. Presentation of baroque culture in Croatia in the socialist period Dubravka Botica Introduction In the Croatian art historiography of the Cold-War period, Baroque art stands out as a particular subject of interest. Defined in simplified terms as the art of Counter- Reformation and of Absolute Monarchy, that is to say the art of the Church and the nobility, Baroque art posed a stark contrast to the dominant ideology of communism, with its emphasis on the culture of the peasantry and the workers. One might expect that for art historians this was not likely to offer the best possible conditions for researching local Baroque heritage. However, no comprehensive account of art historiography in Croatia in the twentieth century has yet been written – nor has the subject even attracted much interest among the research community as yet. Over the past decade a growing number of texts have appeared dealing with the beginnings of art history on Croatian territory1 or with a number of individual influential scholars who have blazed the trail in promoting art history as a professional practice in the first half of the twentieth century.2 However, the development of academic discourse in the post-war period on art history has only been touched upon in passing by researchers concentrating on broader topics, such as the analysis of culture and art of particular historical periods.3 Therefore, due to the lack of any comprehensive overview of the development of academic discourse on the subject in Croatia, the interpretation of Baroque art in the Croatian art historiography of the second half of the twentieth century remains fragmentary.
