Half a century after her first solo exhibition, Nives Kavurić-Kurtović, one of Croatia’s most prominent painters will exhibit her works once again. Herr surreal, intense and phantasmagorical paintings, s, as well as the use of refined colours in her artwork, k, have earned her an important place in the pantheon of Croatian art and artists. Art historians can indulge as this exhibition will show the period of socialist realism (1945–1950)) and its deconstruction (1950–1955) in Tito’s for-mer Yugoslavia as well social, political and culturall aspects of that post-war totalitarian era, while itss relics still remain in people’s collective memory in Croatia. In this instance everything that glistens IS gold, 0 and the museum’s Antique Period collection of 50 or so earrings, decorated and carved between thee 1st and 4th century AD, offer an insight into theirr production. See the methods and technology used d as well as how these were worn and buckled. Get the lowdown on Egyptian mummification, mythology, the afterlife, burial tools and the materialss used. Mama mia you say! The display also includess four human and five real animal mummies, as welll as the research unearthed during their analysis viaa radiological research. Kinda spooky, kinda groovy!

Alternative rock stalwarts from the 80s and 90s who ripped into the scene, then split, and in 2005 reunited. Since then they’ve produced a few albums, stayed together, and mellowed a tad, but the raging rock of old is still there. Front-man J Mascis’ guitar solos can vouch for that. These pianists have enough experience and credibility between the two of them, which makes for quite the artistic journey; the question remains in how to tell them apart as their synergy is so strong. They pound those 88 keys, producing a concoction of atmospheric, harmonic, and rhythmic jazz standards.

Previously known as the Spring Jazz Review, this event hasn’t lost any of its vivacious, creative, or spontaneous energy as it features some of the world’s biggest names in the genre. As leading jazz trombonist J. J Johnson once said “Jazz is restless, it won’t stay put and it never will”, which this event surely testifies to. Jessie is a young British vocalist who has seen four tracks in the UK Top 100 over the last year or so. Many dub her as the perfect balance between Sade and Whitney Houston, but this artist can embellish the deep electro pop sounds in the background of her music with a voice that marvels. From back-up singer to lead singer, she’s primed for the next step. The premiere of a fairy-tale, historical myth, and d tragic love story, all combined in one epic tale. e. Wagner’s famous opera is inspired by the medi-eval epic Garin de Lohengrin and, along with itss incredible hypnotic music, creates one of the most beautiful operas of the German Romantic period. Where can I take the kids today? Look no further; the essence of this festival is theatre for kids. Itt attracts the best productions for children, with h a strong national and international contingentt always buzzing around. Usually held during springg holidays, over 5000 visitors partake and best of all, it is for free. Catch your breath as this part of Europe is about to see the biggest exhibition of Picasso’s works with 56 original paintings and sculptures as well as 40 photos which are all kept in the Parisian Mu-seum of Pablo Picasso. The exhibition will reveall all the artistic stages of this genius artist and a special focus will be on Picasso’s great muse and one of the biggest loves of his life, a Croatian Dora Maar, who greatly influenced his life and art work. One of the most famous Austrian composers and flautists of more recent generations will put on a special concert at the beautiful Mimara Museum, accompanied by violinist Elena Denisova and conductor Alexei Kornienko. Wagner’s repertoire will include Alexander von Zemlinsky’s Serenade for violin and orchestra in A major (1896), and Mozart’s Symphony No. 29 in A major.

Das schwarze Haus – ein Musical in Farbe „Das schwarze Haus – ein Musical in Farbe“ ist ein übermütiges Original-Kroatisches Musical-Spektakel, das uns – inszeniert vom Starchoreographen Igor Barberic (Footloose, Chicago) – kopfüber in das historische Zagreb des 16. Jahrhunderts katapultiert, in dem zwei junge Frauen auf der Suche nach Liebe und dem guten Bischof Stjepan in die Wirren der Stadtfehden geraten und sich im kunterbunten Treiben sogar im Kerker und vor dem Scheiterhaufen finden – all dies wird gewürzt mit einer gehörigen Portion Singen, Stepptanz und mitreißenden modernen Liedern, die eine satte Ladung an kroatischer Folklore und orientalischen Flair mit sich bringen. • Das Kino im Studentenzentrum, Savska 25, www.crnakuca.com
