Tamnograd

17,00 

Tamnograd je tužno mjesto iz kojeg su istjerane biljke. Ne zna se čija je to zapravo bila ideja, no u njezinoj provedbi bitnu ulogu igraju jedan gradski službenik i jedan policajac. Sve do trenutka kad iz pukotine u asfaltu izviri svijetlo plavi cvjetić i sve se počne mijenjati…

 

Autorica priče Iva Bezinović-Haydon na osebujan način progovara o našoj potrebi za biljnim svijetom, za bojama, za raznolikošću, za igrom, ali i mogućnostima- skrivenim i privatnim, kao i vidljivim i zajedničkim – da se suprotstavimo nametnutom sivilu. Likovna umjetnica Laura Martinović, prvi put oslikavajući priču za slikovnicu, stvara maštovit i zanimljiv vizualni svijet.

Zaboravljene stvari

17,00 

U umjetničkoj autorskoj slikovnici, namijenjenoj publici svih generacija, Agata Lučić vodi čitatelja na sajam starih stvari. To je monokromatski plavi svijet u kojemu se nižu raznoliki predmeti, zajedno sa svojim pričama. Svaki u sebi nosi tragove vremena provedenog u nečijem životu, tragove nečije prošlosti. Virtuozan i vrlo prepoznatljiv stil mlade likovne umjetnice iz stranice u stranicu dočarava fragmente života koje su „zaboravljene stvari“ dijelile sa svojim ljudima i tako stvara originalno, pomalo čudesno, toplo ozračje. Posljednja duplerica donosi iznenađenje: u trenutku kad stvari uspiju privući nove ljude, postići da prihvate i njih i njihove priče, u slikovnicu prodiru boje. To više nije prostor sjećanja, nego prostor života. Ova likovno izuzetno inventivna slikovnica, i nostalgična i vesela, očuđuje najobičnije predmete, poziva na otvaranje prema tuđim, nestalim pričama i nekim vrijednostima dostupnim samo pažljivom pogledu. Pristupačna djeci, poziva i odrasle čitatelje na sanjarenje, nudeći nedvojben vizualni užitak.

The Lives of Troubadours

10,00 

Sanja Lovrenčić’s book presents biographical texts by anonymous authors from the 13th and 14th century that depicted the lives of troubadours. Medival biographical texts about troubadours are a very old testimony about the interest that lives of artist awakened in their contemporaries. In a time where the only biographies written were those of saints and important rulers, poets are the only group of people that defy that rule – by being written about. Their biographies were written in a language that in medieval times, among others, was called “lenga d’oc”. Today this language is mostly referred to as Occitan, and it is considered to have been Europe’s first literary language after the classical period.

In the Rhythm of Horror – The Abyss of Dances

13,00 

“In the Rhythm of Horror – The Abyss of Dances” is a collection of six fantasy stories by young Croatian authors. The stories were chosen via a competition that Mala zvona held in 2020, after which authors Josip Čekolj, Mateja Pavlic, Marin Pelaić, Ines Vajzović, Martina Vidaić and Orin Ivan Vrkaš were chosen. Except for the characteristic fantastical elements of the unexpected and wondrous, the motive of dance also connects the stories – a dance of the dead and the arisen, a dance of half-humans and half-animals in the moonlight, an oriental dance of wraiths in black capes. These obnoxious dancers contribute to an uneasy atmosphere but at the same time, they create an aura of mystical beauty. Each story is illustrated with a black and white piece by Klara Rusan Klarxy – her work masterly depicts the merge of the real and the otherworldly, and makes a world that might seem dark and bizarre mysteriously alluring.

Silences

10,00 

In this book that addresses every generation words and images blend into an impressive poetical unity. Using drawings with simple, clear lines and concise sentences, the author tells a story that’s possible to read and experience on different levels. She talks about the close connection of human beings with nature, about changes and the importance of that – sometimes concealed, but still permanent – relationship. The tree is also a symbol of the author’s inner being, a deep and vital center where her strength arises from, a strength of the utmost importance in encounters with the outside world and collisions with its walls.
