THE AWARD AND ART

In The Pavle Beljanski Memorial Collection a chamber exhibition titled The Award and Art is presented, marking two important anniversaries: 60 years since the establishment of The Pavle Beljanski Memorial Collection Award and 170 years since the birth of Vlaho Bukovac (4 July 1855 – 23 April 1922) The main link between these two anniversaries is Bukovac’s artwork Lа Grande Iza (1882) which occupies a central place in the Pavle Beljanski Memorial. In this way, Pavle Beljanski’s legacy has become a recognizable institution associated with Vlaho Bukovac, which resulted in a significant acquisition in 2020. The Memorial Collection received Bukovac’s painting Portrait of Marija Vučetić (née Banac) (1885) as a gift, which is exhibited untill 31 December.
