A Game of Sports and Art – Towards a permanent exhibition of the Croatian Sports Museum
February 6 – March 22
The Croatian Sports Museum, in collaboration with the Croatian Association of Artists and the Academy of Fine Arts from Zagreb, presents a comprehensive exhibition project titled A Game of Sports and Art that announces the permanent exhibition of the Croatian Sports Museum.
Through the exhibition in two parts, the Home of the Croatian Association of Artists becomes a meeting place for sports, education, culture and art, which testifies to the connection between art and sports.
The first part of the exhibition shows the development of applied arts in the field of sports since the beginning of organized sports in Croatia, whereas the second part of the exhibition presents sports as a profession and widespread healthy recreational activity, as well as inspiration for the creation of artworks by contemporary artists.
The exhibition features a wide range of exhibits – from museum ones, which combine traces of history and tell the story of the development of sports, to artworks that comment, describe personal experiences and speak of the possible combinations between various creative sports games and art.
