Every year we celebrate the International Museum Day on May 18th, and the Educational Museum Action (EMA) has chosen the theme: „Museums and STEAM?!“. Our goal is to show that the humanities and social sciences are not separate from the natural and technological sciences but form a comprehensive whole. The exhibition of the 9th Croatian Prints Triennial, organized by the Department of Prints and Drawings of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Art, presents graphic artists who realize their creative thinking in both traditional and contemporary graphic techniques, applying alternative possibilities of the graphic process in contemporary artistic practices: the use of digital matrices and new digital technologies.

TASK: Inspired by works from the book „Encyclopedia of Monsters“by Stanislav Marijanović, we will create our own fictional creatures. Using a computer and 3D design program, the drawings will be transformed into 3D objects. We will place the created objects in the virtual space of the Gallery, creating a space where reality and imagination intertwine. Expect VR (virtual reality) glasses!

Guest artist: Antonio Kutleša, mag.edu.art.
