The twentieth anniversary museum-education project of the National Museum of Modern Art, 10 Schools – 10 Artists, conceived by Ivana Rončević Elezović, PhD, NMMU museum consultant, will, as it did last year, be held at the Klovićevi Dvori Gallery (https://gkd.hr/) due to the ongoing comprehensive renovation of the Vranyczany-Dobrinović Palace, the NMMU headquarters.
On 22 November, a full-day event will bring together secondary school students and their teachers/mentors from various regions of Croatia. The event is connected to the exhibition Masterpieces of Hungarian and Croatian Art, focusing on works and artists from the collection of the National Museum of Modern Art that are featured in the exhibition. Through this project, students will gain new insights and develop a deeper connection with both the subject matter they are exploring and the museum itself, while also taking on the roles of researchers and presenters of their own projects. The schools participating in the 10 Schools 10 Artists 2024 project include: Matija Antun Reljković Grammar School, Vinkovci; Valpovo Secondary School; I Grammar School, Osijek; XVI Grammar School, Zagreb; Classical Grammar School, Zagreb; Second Grammar School Varaždin; First Croatian Grammar School in Rijeka; Vladimir Nazor Grammar School, Zadar; IV Grammar School “Marko Marulić”, Split; and Grammar School Dubrovnik.
The National Museum of Modern Art would like to thank Antonio Picukarić, Director of the Klovićevi Dvori Gallery, and museum consultants Petra Vugrinec, PhD and Ljiljana Velkovski for their collaboration and for hosting the project, as well as the Ministry of Culture and Media of the Republic of Croatia and the City of Zagreb for their support in bringing it to fruition.
