Introduction Habent suam sortem libelli. There is an ebb and flow in the affairs of books. Some are born under a lucky star, gestate quickly and happily to be triumphantly born into the world of expectant readers. The fortune of the precursor of the text you have in front of you was anything but that. Conceived in 2007 as a book on Croatia’s cultural and natural assets, it saw one of its two initiators – the one in charge of nature – resign from the task after three years of procrastination. The other, dealing with culture, i.e., myself, decided to keep his end of the bargain. The publisher did, too. Then after another year, when the text was close to completion, the publisher went out of business. It took a year to find another as the economic crisis kept chok- ing the publishing business. The new publisher “was enthusiastic” about my work and for two years she did nothing. Then, when all the sources of financial support had dried up in 2014 a “solution” was found – to publish on the net. It was done so that the book could be downloaded for reading on a tablet, but the procedure was so complicated and awkward that I have yet to find a brave soul who has managed to download my book (Goss 2014). The English version, luckily, was never published, which is good as the Croatian text was already obsolete. So after another year, I de- cided to write, in fact, a new, enlarged and updated version in English, and here it is. The messed up book was a summary of decades of my research into territorial orga- nization, i.e., the mortal’s relation to the immortal space, their creative interaction, peaceful coexistence, or tug of war. As the title says it is a book about Space, about Nature that provides its material, immortal substance, and the creative spirit of Cul- ture that endows it with sense. Nature and Culture together make up a Total Ecology. Cultural ecology which is any ecology once human beings appear within it, is experi- enced through its layers, i.e., cultural landscape. Bits and pieces of that research of mine trickled down in a number of texts, so there is a record of my progress, but my only serious and systematic synthesis, although published, never reached the public. This new text aims at breaking the impasse. The history of my involvement with spatial organization goes back to my Master’s Thesis which was written between 1966 and 1968 at the Art History Department of Zagreb University, but, frankly, twenty years ago I had no idea that I might be writing these lines. In the fall of 1964 I became a teaching assistant at the Department of Art History of the School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Zagreb to the new Assistant Pro- fessor, Radovan Ivančević with an understanding that I would also service Professor Stahuljak. A year later I was promoted to being a teaching assistant to the Head of the Cathedra of Medieval Art, Professor Milan Prelog. When I got my BA in Art Histo- 1 Space: Sense and Substance ry, in the summer of 1966, it was clear that I would do my MA under Prelog’s mentor- ship. In the fall of the same year I went to his office to discuss the issue. Prelog did not mince words. “You are a hiker. With your mother you have been visiting ruins and snake pits all over Croatia. I know that your grandmother has a summer house at Selce, so you know the Northern Coastland. In Vinodol in the Middle Ages there used to be nine communes. I would like to know how they came into being. Say: Vinodol territory and its spatial organization…” Like most of my colleagues, I was a snob. I hoped I would write my thesis on “true art.” What Prelog had to offer was not art history; why not something on the Croa- tian Pre-Romanesque, or on Master Radovan, or Istrian frescoes? Good Lord, in that whole damn Vinodol there was not a single shred of interlace sculpture! I tried hard to cover up my disappointment, while Prelog continued: “O.K. Go to the Academy’s library and see what Barada, Kostrenčić and Ms. Klaić have to say about it. See you in two weeks.” And as I was rising from the chair in consternation, he add- ed something which at least somewhat soothed my pain. “I have no idea what might come out of it. But be as it may, I will stand by you. You are a smart guy. I wouldn’t ask this of a fool.” The question that would come out, or, more precisely, did come out, was posed at the defense of the thesis, two years later, by distinguished Professors Duje Rendić- Miočević (Archeology) and Branimir Bratanić (Ethnology). They said: “This is quite nice, but it is not History of Art!” An extremely serious Prelog answered: “This is His- tory of Art!” At the promotion ceremony where I was represented by my late father, Professor Vladimir Gvozdanović, Prelog lavishly praised my work saying that it should be recog- nized as a doctoral thesis. Nothing came of it, but it did not matter, as I was already at Cornell working on a thesis much more suitable to my intellectual arrogance – Pre-Romanesque and Romanesque Architecture in Croatia. I forgot about my mas- ter’s thesis, and actually hid it as the snake does its feet having considered it a waste of time. I published a summary in Prelog’s Festschrift in 1988, and that was it (Goss 1988-89). I believe I got to know my mentor very well. He had an “eye” with a fantastic capability to read the form, but he knew how to do it within context. In retrospective, I have in- herited a lot of his “contextualizing,” and I applied it to the fields I have been preoccu- pied with most of my life – Pre-Romanesque architecture and Romanesque sculpture. And then, in 1999, I was invited by Daniel Rukavina, the Rector of the University of Rijeka to come to Croatia. There is a repetitive pattern in my life. I get set up with something boring and un- 2 Space: Sense and Substance promising, and then, after some time, it proves a winner. Rijeka is possibly the best example of that “rags to riches” principle ruling my life. In 1999 there was not even an Art History Department there. But this was exactly the point. I was asked to help, with my considerable experience of 30 years “abroad,” to split the Department of Visual Culture into Art History Department and Academy of Applied Art. The task was successfully accomplished and in about two years I found myself a member of a small but at that time harmonious and friendly Art History Department which had good potential of growth and was duly supported by the Administration. As a senior faculty member I was eligible for Ministry of Science financial support and assistants, and I received a rather small but still useful annual sum for the dozen years of the duration of my project “The Romanesque between the Sava and the Drava Rivers and European Culture.” I was still a bit of a snob. People were saying: “Why did you not get yourself a job in Zagreb?” But soon I realized that being in Rijeka I had something I would have never had within the Zagreb academic establishment – lots of free room, space, and fresh air. As I look back on the decade and a half at the University of Rijeka where I remain today as Professor Emeritus after legally mandated retirement, I cannot conceal my satisfaction. During this period of 15 years I authored or co-authored 8 books and 58 scholarly articles, and spoke or chaired sessions at endless international and nation- al conferences. I do not even know how many pieces of mine are in press right now. This is not hubris, but statistical fact. Yet what makes me most satisfied is that I have finally started doing real HISTORY OF ART! And without the freedom to think and act which I enjoyed at the University of Rijeka, I would have never done it.

  • Tionsrijeka – Candidate City for European Capital of Culture
    Rijeka 2� 2� : Port of DiveR sity—Wa teR woR k migra Rijeka – Candidate City for European tions Capital of Culture Table of contents Warm welcome to this important publication 0. Introduction – general considerations 2 The opportunity for Rijeka to compete in the final round for the title of European Capi- tal of Culture has given us great pleasure. The first step was to fully understand the 1. contribution to the long-term strategy 9 We have achieved good alignment between the existing clear and sustainable strategy of Rijeka and the boost it is given by a project such as ECOC and its 2. european dimension 17 Naturally it was very stimulating to coalesce with more than hundred international part- ners in developing and structuring of great 3. cultural & artistic content 21 that is not only a collection of serious artistic pro- ductions and projects but also a broader take on the totality of human condition. Deep underlying concept of Port of Diversity was translated to topics of Work, Water and Migrations and a number of great initia- tives. The ambitious programme will be a test for our 4. capacity to deliver 73 but we are confident that the heterogeneous cul- tural scene of Rijeka – fully supported by the City Council – will prove again it's seriousness and stamina. Existing and new infrastructures will host cultural programmes that are not merely there to be adored but are ushering a new era of 5. outreach 80 that is extended to dimensions of learning and participation. We are preparing a genuinely inclusive and invigorating set of frameworks and platforms that will change the way in which each citizen and visitor of Rijeka sees her or his own partici- pation in the public sphere.

Predgovor va je knjiga nastala iz želje i potrebe da se na obuhvatan, pregledan i koliko je moguće iscrpan način prikaže bogatstvo i raznolikost hrvatske umjetničke baštine u prošlosti i suvremenosti. Zamišljena je Okao vodič kroz povijest hrvatske likovne umjetnosti, arhitekture, gradogradnje, vizualne kulture i di- zajna od antičkih vremena do suvremenoga doba s osvrtom na glavne odrednice umjetničkog stvaralaštva te na istaknute autore i spomenike koji su nastajali tijekom razdoblja od dva i pol tisućljeća u zemlji čiji se politički krajobraz tijekom povijesnih razdoblja znatno mijenjao. Premda su u tako zamišljenom povijesnom ciceroneu svoje mjesto našli i najvažniji umjetnici koji su djelovali izvan domovine, žarište je ovog pregleda na umjetničkoj baštini Hrvatske u njezinim suvremenim granicama. Katkad se pokazalo nužnim da se te granice preskoče, odnosno da se u pregled – uvažavajući zadanosti povijesnih određenja – uključe i neki spomenici koji su danas u susjednim državama.
