Poštovani putnici!

Dear passengers!

Za nama je jedno neobično ljeto, a po svemu sudeći, i jesen će biti puna izazova. Naša kompanija dijeli sudbinu avioindustrije u cijelome svijetu, ali i zajedničku nadu da ćemo se što prije vratiti onome običnom, svakodnevnome letenju kakvo je bilo prije pojave koronavirusa. Zahvaljujem vam na razumijevanju koje ste pokazali u ovim zahtjevnim vremenima i na povjerenju koje nam darujete. Raduje me što je pred vama još jedan broj našega putnog časopisa. U njemu donosimo aktualne teme pa već na prvim stranicama možete pročitati što smo sve poduzeli kako biste se u našim zrakoplovima osjećali posve zaštićeno i ugodno. Nedvojbeno, vaša sigurnost i zdravlje za nas su na prvome mjestu. Zbog toga smo i uvodni intervju posvetili aktualnoj situaciji, o kojoj smo razgovarali s Gordanom Laucom, uglednim hrvatskim i svjetskim znanstvenikom. Kao uvijek, predstavljamo vam zanimljive hrvatske krajolike i mjesta u kojima ćete se u ovim jesenskim danima dobro provesti na otvorenome. Ovaj put vodimo vas u Brodsko-posavsku županiju, gdje možete uživati u prirodi, ali i u ukusnim slavonskim specijalitetima, a također i u Splitsko-dalmatinsku, na planinu Biokovo, gdje je nedavno izgrađena staklena nebeska šetnica, jedinstvena ne samo u Hrvatskoj nego i u Europi. Pročitajte i što vam sve nudi glavni grad Hrvatske i njegova okolica. Zagrebu nikada ne nedostaje kulturnih i umjetničkih sadržaja, a ujesen je i osobito lijep, obogaćen bojama i mirisima. A pravi jesenski ugođaj nude i brojna okolna izletišta u kojima možete uživati u berbi grožđa, jabuka, krušaka, dunja, mladome vinu... Dragi putnici, od srca vam zahvaljujem što letite s nama i želim ugodne, opuštene trenutke u zrakoplovu Croatia Airlinesa, s našom posadom koja brine o vama.

We’ve had an unusual summer and, by all accounts, autumn too will be challenging. Our company has suffered the fate of the aviation industry as a whole, but also shares the common hope that we’ll soon return to regular, everyday flights, the way they were before the coronavirus outbreak. I thank you for the understanding you’ve shown in these challenging times and for the trust you’ve placed in us. I’m glad that another issue of our inflight magazine is in your hands. We’re bringing you up-to-date information, so on the very first pages you can find out about what we’ve done to make you feel completely protected and comfortable in our aircraft. Clearly, your safety and health are our number one priority. That’s why we’ve dedicated our interview to the current situation, which we talked about with Gordan Lauc, a scientist famed in both Croatia and the world. As always, we’re also presenting Croatia’s interesting landscapes and places where you can have a great time outdoors during autumn. In this issue, we’re taking you to the Brod-Posavina County, where you can enjoy nature and delicious Slavonian delicacies, and to the Split-Dalmatia County, to Biokovo Mountain, to be precise, where a glass skywalk was recently built, unique not only in Croatia, but also in Europe. You’ll also find out about what the capital of Croatia and its surroundings have to offer. There’s no shortage of arts and cultural events in Zagreb, and in autumn it’s colour- and scent-infused, and particularly beautiful. Many surrounding places − where you’ll enjoy the picking of grapes, apples, pears, quinces, young wine − also offer a real autumn ambience. Dear passengers, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for flying with us. With our crew taking care of you, I wish you pleasant, relaxed moments on your Croatia Airlines flight.

CHECKPOINT Bluetag Bachvica Bachvica je imitacija jednog od najvažnijih proizvoda Međimurske županije ∑ bačve, koja se stoljećima koristi za skladištenje svih vrsta vina. S obzirom na to da prave bačve ipak nisu pogodne za moderne stanove i domove, Bachvica je idealna zamjena kojom ćete unijeti ugođaj podruma. Izrađena je od metalne konstrukcije plastificirane u boju Graphite Grey sa sjedalicom izrađenom od punog drva hrasta. Bachvica is a replica of one of the most important products of the Međimurje County ∑ the barrel ∑ which has been used for centuries to store wine. Since real barrels aren’t best suited for modern living spaces and homes, Bachvica is an ideal substitute infusing your home with the ambience of a cellar. It’s made of a metal construction plasticised in Graphite Grey with a seat made of solid oak wood. www.bluetagdesign.com

Croatia Airlines Krila hrvatskoga gospodarstva The wings of Croatia's economy

Š. Lugarov

Dragi naši putnici, drago nam je što ste kao partnera na ovome letu odabrali upravo Croatia Airlines. Svojim odabirom dali ste nam svoje povjerenje, a pred nas ste postavili odgovoran zadatak ispunjavanja svojih očekivanja, ali i očekivanja svih onih koji znaju da smo neizostavan sudionik hrvatskoga gospodarstva. Prema podacima FINE za 2019. ponosno smo zauzeli treće mjesto na ljestvici hrvatskih izvoznika, što potvrđuje da jesmo i ostajemo stvarnim krilima hrvatskog turizma i gospodarstva te boljeg sutra svih nas! Zahvalni smo jer i kod vas možemo potvrditi sve ono što smo dosljedno i uporno gradili tijekom dosadašnje 31 godine svojeg

poslovanja pa nam dopustite da na ovim stranicama svoju kompaniju predstavimo u nešto drukčijem tonu. Croatia Airlines danas je hrvatski, ali i europski avioprijevoznik koji putnici prepoznaju po sigurnosti letenja, profesionalnom osoblju i kvaliteti usluge, a svojim zrakoplovima do sad smo prevezli više od 40 milijuna putnika i obavili preko 600.000 letova. Stekli smo članstvo u najvažnijim zrakoplovnim udruženjima − Međunarodnoj udruzi za zračni promet (IATA) i Star Allianceu, vodećem svjetskom udruženju avioprijevoznika, za čije smo članstvo trebali ispuniti zahtjevne kriterije. Ulaskom u Star Alliance našli smo se uz bok kompanijama kao što su Aegean Airlines, Air Canada, Air China, Air India, Air New Zealand, ANA, Asiana Airlines, Austrian Airlines, Avianca, Brussels Airlines, Copa Airlines, EgyptAir, Ethiopian Airlines, EVA Air, LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Scandinavian Airlines, Shenzhen Airlines, Singapore Airlines, South African Airways, Swiss International Air Lines, TAP Air Portugal, Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines i United Airlines. Time smo unaprijedili svoju mrežu letova preko europskih čvorišta Star Alliancea te postali još značajniji subjekt sektora zračnog prometa u kojemu je u Hrvatskoj trenutno zaposleno čak 10.000 ljudi. Kupnjom roba i usluga od lokalnih dobavljača, Croatia Airlines, ali i sektor u cijelosti, podržava dodatne 3000 radnih mjesta, a procjenjuje se da sektor podržava još 3000 radnih mjesta kroz plaće svojih zaposlenika, od kojih će neke ili sve biti potrošene na robu široke potrošnje i usluge. Strani turisti koji dolaze zračnim prijevozom u Hrvatsku također svojom potrošnjom daju doprinos lokalnome gospodarstvu, a procjenjuje se da tako podržavaju dodatnih 19.000 radnih mjesta. Ukupno je, dakle, 35.000 radnih mjesta povezano sa sektorom zračnoga prometa i turistima koji u Republiku Hrvatsku dolaze zračnim prijevozom, čime je uloga svakog od sudionika ovoga sektora još veća. Industrija zračnog prometa, uključujući avioprijevoznike poput nas, ali i cijeli lanac opskrbe, prema procjenama podupire 456 milijuna dolara BDP-a u Hrvatskoj. Potrošnja stranih turista odnosi se na daljnjih 883 milijuna dolara BDP-a države, što daje ukupan iznos od 1,4 milijarde dolara, odnosno 2,2 posto državnoga BDP-a. Uloga nacionalnog avioprijevoznika, ali i naša odgovornost stoga je neosporna jer svakim svojim letom omogućujemo povezanost hrvatskih odredišta i Hrvatske sa svijetom, nedostupno činimo dostupnim te postavljamo nove standarde za sve nas. Osvrnemo li se na godinu iza nas jer ova, nažalost, zbog objektivnih epidemijskih razloga ne može biti mjerilo, s ponosom možemo reći da je kroz devet zračnih luka u Republici Hrvatskoj prošlo ukupno 11,4 milijuna putnika, dok je gotovo polovica putnika Zračne luke Zagreb, koja je glavno čvorište Croatia Airlinesa, letjela našim zrakoplovima. Tijekom protekle godine zrakoplovi Croatia Airlinesa letjeli su u 8 domaćih i čak 30 međunarodnih odredišta u redovitom prometu te izravno povezivali Hrvatsku sa 24 države svijeta. Dovozili su u Republiku Hrvatsku brojne turiste, rodbinu i prijatelje, ali i sve više poslovnih ljudi i kongresnih putnika, čemu u prilog svjedoče i posljednje brojke Međunarodne udruge za kongrese i stručne skupove (ICCA), prema kojima je Hrvatska u 2019. godini zabilježila najveći rast u broju održanih međunarodnih skupova te se kao destinacija našla na 34. mjestu po ukupno održanim skupovima u svijetu i svrstana je na ljestvicu vodećih kongresnih destinacija regije. Najznačajniji hrvatskih kongresni gradovi jesu Zagreb, Split, Opatija i Dubrovnik. Na europskoj razini Hrvatska

je također ostvarila dobru poziciju te trenutno zauzima 19. mjesto, a Zagreb 29. mjesto među europskim kongresnim gradovima. Svakodnevno pratimo trendove i osluškujemo potrebe zajednice u kojoj djelujemo, svojih putnika i poslovnih partnera jer znamo da kvalitetno upravljan i izgrađen zračni promet ne donosi korist samo putnicima nego i cijeloj zajednici i gospodarstvu Republike Hrvatske. Osiguravanjem kvalitetne i brze povezanosti između gradova, potiče se kolanje robe i usluga, stvaraju i unapređuju nove i postojeće investicije te spajaju ljude i ideje koje su osnovni pokretači svakoga gospodarskog rasta, a time i napretka pojedine zajednice. Jednako tako, štitimo i zdravlje svojih građana i putnika, a što smo i tijekom dosadašnjeg razdoblja epidemije koronavirusa mnogo puta potvrdili, dovozeći maske i zaštitnu opremu, no i prevozeći hrvatske državljane u njihove domove te vraćajući strane državljane njihovim kućama. Svoje prometovanje, dakle, nismo prekinuli ni u jednom trenutku iako su okolnosti s kojima smo se susretali to od nas zahtijevale, no za razliku od mnogih avioprijevoznika koji su u prvoj polovici ožujka obustavili sve letove u Hrvatsku, odlučili smo ostati dosljedni onomu što jesmo, biti vjerni onima za koje oduvijek letimo − svojim putnicima i Republici Hrvatskoj. Od početka epidemije koronavirusa na svojim smo krilima kućama vratili oko 23.000 hrvatskih građana, dok smo istodobno bili na raspolaganju Vladi Republike Hrvatske, s kojom smo zajedno organizirali i prevezli humanitarnu pomoć, vratili hrvatske vojnike iz Afganistana, proveli više repatrijacijskih letova iz različitih dijelova Europe kao i s uspjehom i ponosom ostvarili do sad najduži let u povijesti naše kompanije − onaj u Kinu i natrag.

Potvrdili smo i na taj način značaj Croatia Airlinesa kao strateškog dijela hrvatske prometne infrastrukture te dali doprinos osiguranju prometne povezanosti za svoje putnike i hrvatsko gospodarstvo u cijelosti. Uzmemo li u obzir iznimnu sezonalnost potražnje s visokim stupnjem konkurencije u ljetnim mjesecima, ali gotovo nepostojećom konkurencijom u onim zimskima, naša uloga nacionalnog avioprijevoznika doista je važna jer Croatia Airlines omogućuje hrvatskim zračnim lukama cjelogodišnju otvorenost, a svim putnicima izvrsnu povezanost 365 dana u godini. Vremena u kojima živimo pišu svoja poglavlja i potrebna je stalna prilagodba. Sukladno globalnim ali i lokalnim predviđanjima, zračni prijevoz u Republici Hrvatskoj trebao bi rasti za 66 posto u sljedećih 20 godina, što bi nam trebalo dovesti dodatnih 3,4 milijuna putnika do 2038. godine, a ako tomu bude tako, povećana potražnja dovest će do 2,2 milijarde dolara BDP-a i oko 37.340 radnih mjesta. Croatia Airlines je avioprijevoznik u najboljim godinama, sa svojom 31 godinom dovoljno iskusan za dane koji dolaze. Dovoljno svjestan zahtjeva koje sadašnji trenutak pred njega postavlja, dovoljno svjestan odgovornosti prema vama i svojih do sada više od 40 milijuna putnika te više od 1000 zaposlenih i članova njihovih obitelji! Hvala vam na odabiru nas kao vašeg avioprijevoznika, no jednako tako hvala i na dolasku u Republiku Hrvatsku i vašem osobnom doprinosu unapređenju hrvatskoga gospodarstva i turizma! Vaš Croatia Airlines

Procjenjuje se da je čak 35.000 radnih mjesta povezano sa sektorom zračnoga prometa i turistima koji u Hrvatsku dolaze zračnim prijevozom. Stoga je Croatia Airlines značajan subjekt hrvatskoga turizma i gospodarstva te sektora zračnog prometa. It’s estimated that as many as 35,000 jobs are connected with the air transport sector and tourists coming to Croatia by air. Accordingly, Croatia Airlines is an important entity in Croatia’s tourism and economy, and the air transport sector.

CROATIA AIRLINES 3/2020

Through the salaries of its employees, some or all of which are spent on consumer goods and services, it is estimated that the sector supports yet another 3,000 jobs. Foreign tourists arriving in Croatia by air also contribute to the local economy with their spending, which is estimated to support an additional 19,000 jobs. In total, 35,000 jobs are connected with the air transport sector and tourists coming to Croatia by air, making the role of each participant in this sector even greater. The air transport industry, including airlines like us and the entire supply chain, is estimated to contribute $ 456 million to Croatia’s GDP. Foreign tourist consumption contributes an additional $ 883 million to the country’s GDP, totalling $ 1.4 billion or 2.2 percent of Croatia’s GDP. The role of Croatia’s flag carrier airline and our responsibility is, in turn, indisputable because each of our flights connects Croatian destinations and Croatia with the world, makes the inaccessible accessible, and sets new standards for all of us. If we look back on last year − because, unfortunately, due to objective epidemic reasons, this year cannot be taken as a measure − we can proudly say that a total of 11.4 million passengers passed through Croatia’s nine airports, and that almost half of all passengers passing through Zagreb’s Franjo Tuđman Airport, which is the main hub of Croatia Airlines, flew on our flights. Directly connecting Croatia with 24 countries, last year Croatia Airlines operated scheduled flights to 8 national and as many as 30 international destinations. Croatia Airlines flew to Croatia countless tourists, family and friends, as well as an increasing number of business people and conference attendees, which is evidenced by the latest figures of the International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA). In 2019, according to ICCA, Croatia recorded the strongest growth in the number of

Dear passengers, We are glad that you’ve chosen Croatia Airlines as a partner on this flight. With your choice, you’ve placed your trust in us, and you’ve set before us the task of fulfilling your expectations, as well as the expectations of all those who know that we’re a major participant in Croatia’s economy. According to Croatia’s Financial Agency and their data for 2019, we proudly took third place in the ranking of Croatian exporters, which confirms that we are and remain the wings of Croatia’s tourism and economy creating a better tomorrow for all of us. We are grateful because we can continue confirming all that we have consistently and persistently built over the past 31 years of our business operations, so allow us to present our company in a slightly different light. Having flown more than 40 million passengers and having operated over 600,000 flights, Croatia Airlines is today a Croatian and European airline that passengers recognise for our flight safety, professional staff and quality service. We became a member of the most important aviation organisations − the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and Star Alliance, the world’s leading airline association, whose strict membership criteria we had to satisfy. By having joined Star Alliance, we are now in the company of airlines such as Aegean Airlines, Air Canada, Air China, Air India, Air New Zealand, ANA, Asiana Airlines, Austrian Airlines, Avianca, Brussels Airlines, Copa Airlines, EgyptAir, Ethiopian Airlines, EVA Air, LOT Polish Airlines, Lufthansa, Scandinavian Airlines, Shenzhen Airlines, Singapore Airlines, South African Airways, Swiss International Air Lines, TAP Air Portugal, Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines and United Airlines. As a result, we’ve expanded our network of flights through the European hubs of Star Alliance and become an even more important entity in the air transport sector, which currently employs as many as 10,000 people in Croatia. By purchasing goods and services from local suppliers, Croatia Airlines, as well as the entire sector, supports an additional 3,000 jobs.

international conferences held, having been ranked 34th in the total number of conferences held in the world and amongst the leading congress destinations in the region. Croatia’s leading congress cities are Zagreb, Split, Opatija and Dubrovnik. At European level, Croatia’s also achieved a good position − currently, Croatia ranks 19th and Zagreb 29th. We follow trends and pay attention to the needs of the community in which we operate, our passengers and business partners because we are aware that well-managed and well-built air traffic benefits not only passengers, but also the entire community and Croatia’s economy. Ensuring that connections between cities are of high quality and quick promotes the circulation of goods and services, encourages and increases new and existing investments, and connects people and ideas that are the driving force behind any economic growth, and by extension the prosperity of the community. We also protect the health of our citizens and passengers. We’ve demonstrated this many times so far during the coronavirus epidemic by having transported face masks and personal protective equipment, by having flown Croatian citizens back home and by having repatriated foreign citizens. In other words, we did not suspend our traffic at any time, although the circumstances we’ve encountered required us to do so. Quite the opposite! Unlike many airlines that suspended all flights to Croatia in the first half of March, we decided to remain consistent with what we are, to be faithful to those we have always flown for − our passengers and Croatia. Since the beginning of the coronavirus epidemic, we have flown home some 23,000 Croatian citizens and remained at the disposal of the Government of the Republic of Croatia, together with which we organised and transported humanitarian aid, flew Croatian soldiers back home from Afghanistan, ran

a number of repatriation flights from different parts of Europe, and successfully and proudly operated the longest flight in our company’s history so far − the one to China and back. This has confirmed the importance of Croatia Airlines as a strategic factor in Croatia’s transport infrastructure and has contributed to ensuring transport networks and connections for its passengers and Croatia’s economy as a whole. If we take into account the exceptional seasonality of the demand for airline services with competition being fierce in the summer, yet almost non-existent in the winter, our role as Croatia’s flag carrier airline is truly important because Croatia Airlines enables Croatian airports to be open all year round and provides passengers with excellent connections 365 days a year. The times we live in have been writing their very own chapters and constant adjustment is needed. According to both global and local forecasts, air transport in Croatia is expected to grow by 66% in the next 20 years, which should translate into an additional 3.4 million passengers by 2038. If these forecasts are accurate, this increase in the demand for airline services will generate $ 2.2 billion in GDP and about 37,340 jobs. Croatia Airlines is an airline in its prime. Having recently had its 31st birthday, we’re experienced enough for what lies ahead, aware enough of the demands that the present moment places before us, mindful enough of our responsibility towards you, over 40 million passengers we’ve flown to date, and more than 1,000 employees and members of their families. Thank you for choosing us as your airline, for coming to Croatia and for your personal contribution to the betterment of Croatia’s economy and tourism. Your Croatia Airlines

12 _ CROATIA AIRLINES 3/2020

Može li itko od nas točno znati kolika mu je biološka dob, koliko je istrošio ili sačuvao svoj organizam? Znanstvenik Gordan Lauc, osnivač uspješne hrvatske istraživačke ustanove koja surađuje s vodećim znanstvenim institucijama u svijetu, provodi istraživanja koja su jasno pokazala da postoje četiri ključna elementa za povišenu biološku dob − prehrana, vježbanje, stres i spavanje. Upravo je u vrijeme pandemije bolesti COVID-19 važno prepoznati svoju biološku dob i raditi na tome da je snizimo.

UVIJEK ISPRED GLAVNE STRUJE

GORDAN LAUC ALWAYS AHEAD OF THE MAINSTREAM Can any of us know what our exact biological age is? Can we know the extent to which we have worn our bodies out and/or the extent to which we have kept our bodies biologically young? Researcher and founder of a successful Croatian private research institute that collaborates with leading research institutes in the world, Gordan Lauc has been conducting research that has clearly shown that there are four key elements that make you be biologically older. These are diet, exercise, stress and sleep. Given today’s COVID-19 pandemic, it’s important to find out what our biological age is and to work on reducing it.

Gordan Lauc (50), profesor biokemije i molekularne biologije na Farmaceutsko-biokemijskom fakultetu u Zagrebu te osnivač uspješne hrvatske privatne istraživačke ustanove Genos, koja surađuje s vodećim znanstvenim institucijama u svijetu. Tako nam je mirno objasnio zašto on misli da je biološki čak 20 godina stariji od svoje kalendarske dobi. Kako to može precizno znati? Može li itko od nas točno znati kolika mu je biološka dob, koliko

je istrošio ili sačuvao svoj organizam? Može. To je upravo jedna od stvari kojom se bavi Genos. − Genos je specijaliziran za provođenje velikih kliničkih studija kojima analiziramo glikanske biomarkere. Do sada smo u suradnji s istraživačkim institucijama u Europi, SAD-u, Australiji i Kini analizirali glikane u više od 150.000 osoba. Naš test GlycanAge prvi je komercijalni proizvod proizašao iz rezultata tih znanstvenih istraživanja. Analizom glikana na imunoglobulinima otkrili smo da se oni jako mijenjaju sa starenjem. Glikani koje nalazimo kod mladih ljudi imaju strukturu koja suprimira upalu, a glikani kod starijih ljudi upravo je potiču i na taj način pridonose procesu postupnog propadanja organiz-

ma povezanoga sa starenjem. Međutim, mi smo pokazali da se glikani kod svih ljudi ne mijenjaju jednakom brzinom te da postoji razlika između biološke dobi i stvarne, kalendarske dobi. Ta razlika u velikoj mjeri ovisi o stilu života. Pomoću testa GlycanAge možemo objektivno izmjeriti stanje svojeg organizma na molekularnoj razini, što nam daje uvid u naše opće zdravstveno stanje. GlycanAge nije dijagnostički test za konkretne bolesti, no otkriva nam je li nam homeostaza već narušena i jesmo li na putu prema bolesti. Naime, kompleksne bolesti počinju puno prije prvih simptoma. Primjerice, analizom glikana možemo vidjeti procese koji vode u artritis, Chronovu bolest, dijabetes ili srčani udar čak pet do deset godina prije pojave bolesti. Jesu li vas uplašili rezultati vašeg testa GlycanAge? − Ne. Naša istraživanja pokazala su jasno da postoje četiri ključna elementa za povišenu biološku dob − prehrana, vježbanje, stres i spavanje. Shvatio sam da moram smršaviti, da je to nažalost jedini način da popravim svoju biološku dob. A jako volim jesti pa mi to teško uspijeva. U nekoliko navrata skinuo sam po 10 kilograma i GlycanAge se počeo snižavati, no te sam kilograme relativno brzo vratio i GlycanAge se opet počeo povećavati. Također, živim iznimno ubrzanim životom koji sigurno dovodi do moje povećane glikanske dobi. Je li upravo u vrijeme pandemije bolesti COVID-19 važno prepoznati svoju biološku dob i raditi na tome da je snizimo jer se pokazalo koliko su stariji ljudi ranjivi? − Najveća misterija vezana uz infekciju COVID-19 jest činjenica da će većina ljudi ovu bolest preboljeti kao malo jaču prehladu. Najsnažniji prediktor za teški oblik bolesti jest dob. Stari ljudi imaju i do sto puta veću vjerojatnost za razvoj teškog oblika bolesti. Pa ipak, većina jako starih ljudi neće razviti teški oblik bolesti, a neki mladi ljudi hoće. Očito postoje i neki drugi faktori rizika koje još uvijek nismo otkrili. Test GlycanAge, odnosno različiti biomarkeri biološke dobi, možda mogu bolje predvidjeti mogućnost teškog oblika bolesti od kalendarske dobi pacijenata i to je jedna od pretpostavki koju mi danas intenzivno istražujemo. Neovisno o tome koji će se biomarker biološke dobi pokazati kao najbolji prediktor teškog oblika

bolesti COVID-19, ova pandemija podsjetila nas je koliko je važno osobno brinuti o svojem zdravlju. U tom slučaju test GlycanAge može biti od velike koristi jer nam omogućuje da rano otkrijemo koje promjene životnih navika imaju najbolje učinke na naše zdravlje. Uključili ste se i u istraživanja koronavirusa, trenutno najvećeg izazova za znanstvenike. − Kad je virus SARS-CoV-2 praktično zaustavio svijet, velik broj znanstvenika svoja je istraživanja preusmjerio u nadi da će otkriti način kako život vratiti u normalu. Genos je kao vodeći svjetski laboratorij za istraživanje glikanskih biomarkera u vrlo ranoj fazi pandemije organizirao veliki međunarodni konzorcij koji prikuplja uzorke pacijenata s teškim i blagim oblikom bolesti i šalje ih u naš laboratorij na analizu. Do sada smo analizirali glikane u velikom broju pacijenata iz Bergama i Barcelone i upravo o tome pišemo znanstveni rad. Očekujemo još nekoliko velikih skupina ispitanika, a na kraju ćemo analizirati nekoliko tisuća pacijenata. Nadamo se da će znanje o glikanima pomoći u razvoju personaliziranog pristupa liječenju bolesti COVID-19. Usporedno s organizacijom skupine pacijenata za analizu glikana, prikupljali smo i kliničke podatke, što nam je omogućilo da prvi u svijetu pokažemo da COVID-19 ima jako sezonalnu prirodu te da je za pojedinog pacijenta bolest značajno blaža ljeti nego zimi. To objašnjava zašto je na cijeloj sjevernoj hemisferi smrtnost značajno pala s dolaskom proljeća, no istodobno nas upozorava da bismo s dolaskom zime ponovno mogli imati više teških oblika bolesti. U podlozi tih sezonalnih razlika ponovno bi mogli biti uključeni i glikani. Svi su organizmi u stalnom ratu s virusima i bakterijama pa smo tijekom evolucije razvili brojne mehanizme aktivne zaštite koja funkcionira na razini pojedinca. Na osjetljivim mjestima poput unutrašnjosti usta ili nosa razvili smo mukozne barijere koje su zaštićene posebno debelim glikanskim štitom. Preko tih štitova stalno cirkulira gusta mukozna tekućina − sluz − u kojoj se nalaze posebni mamci koji love viruse i bakterije. Ti su mamci molekule − nazivamo ih mucini − koje u svojoj strukturi sadrže dijelove koji nalikuju glikanima na površini naših stanica. Mucini viruse vežu na sebe i tako ih sprečavaju da se vežu na naše stanice. Posebne

trepetljike u našim dišnim putevima pomiču taj mukozni sloj prema van i na taj način viruse sprečavaju da uđu u pluća te ih preusmjeravaju u jednjak i konačno u želudac, gdje će ih želučana kiselina ubiti. Mukozna barijera vrlo je učinkovita zaštita, no osjetljiva je na isušivanje. Ako udišemo zrak čija je relativna vlažnost manja od 40 do 50 posto, on isušuje našu mukoznu barijeru i na taj način je inaktivira. Štetnost suhog zraka nedvojbeno je potvrđena pokusima na životinjama, a indikativno je da i sezonske pojave gripe i prehlada koincidiraju sa sezonom grijanja, kada je zrak u grijanim prostorijama suh. Hladan zrak sadržava vrlo malo vlage, no velik broj ljudi još uvijek nije toga svjestan i čestim zračenjem stana previše isušuju zrak koji dišu. Stan moramo prozračiti, no to treba raditi tako da na kratko vrijeme otvorimo više prozora i vrata, zamijenimo

serije testova prije određivanja terapije utvrdimo kako će svaki pojedinac odgovoriti na određenu terapiju. Tako pomažemo da svaki pacijent dobije pravu terapiju u pravo vrijeme. Taj pristup naziva se personalizirana medicina i strateški je prioritet istraživanja u cijelom svijetu. Je li vam žao što nakon poslijedoktorskog studija na Sveučilištu Johns Hopkins niste ostali u SAD-u? − Nisam potpuno siguran zašto znanstvene radove šaljem sa zagrebačkom adresom, a kao gostujući i počasni profesor uglednih svjetskih sveučilišta imam se pravo koristiti njihovim adresama, kao što nisam siguran ni zašto sam se vratio iz SAD-a. Teško je znati je li povratak iz SAD-a bio dobra odluka ili nije, ne postoje dvije stvarnosti koje ćemo nakon nekog vremena analizom usporediti kao u znanstvenim eksperimentima − eksperi-

zrak i nakon toga mu vratimo vlažnost posebnim ovlaživačima ili jednostavno kuhanjem vode, čak i vlažnim ručnicima na radijatorima. Bavite se i personaliziranom medicinom, koje ona novosti donosi? − Da, mi radimo i testove iz područja forenzične genetike i molekularne dijagnostike. U tome surađujemo sa Specijalnom bolnicom Sveta Katarina s kojom pokrećemo velik projekt uvođenja farmakogenetičkog testiranja u rutinsku praksu. Nažalost, još se uvijek pri određivanju terapije ne posvećuje dovoljno pažnje činjenici da su ljudi različiti i da različito reagiraju na pojedine lijekove.

samostalno stvoriti nešto veće. Vjerojatno je riječ o želji da iza sebe ostavim trag, da svijet zbog onoga što radim bude nešto drugačiji nego što je bio prije te želji da pokažem da se i u maloj državi mogu učiniti značajne stvari. Kada danas pogledam Genos, kojemu i naši izravni konkurenti priznaju da je vodeći u svijetu u svojem području usprkos činjenici da se nalazi u Zagrebu, i vidim 50 vrhunskih mladih ljudi koji u Zagrebu rade istraživanja na svjetskoj razini, to me silno ispunjava zadovoljstvom i siguran sam da nisam pogriješio što sam se vratio. Što za vas znači suživot s ovim virusom? Jeste li promijenili svoj način života? − Mislim da smo se sredinom ožujka svi jako zabrinuli kad smo vidjeli da na sjeveru Italije umire više od 500 ljudi na dan. Tada nitko nije znao hoće li to za koji

ima potencijal da uzrokuje raspad naše civilizacije i za mene je to bila prekretnica u pristupu pandemiji. SARS-CoV-2 ozbiljan je virus koji zahtijeva da se ponašamo odgovorno i pokušamo ograničiti širenje pandemije, no vjerojatno za to više neće biti potrebne drastične mjere, nego ćemo pandemiju držati pod kontrolom odgovornim ponašanjem svakog pojedinca, održavanjem razmaka i korištenjem maski kada to nije moguće. Obična kirurška maska na kratkim letovima, recimo, vjerojatno može spriječiti isušivanje sluznice, a neke kompanije već razmišljaju o posebnim maskama za ovlaživanje zraka na dugim putovanjima. I zračni promet će se prilagoditi mjerama koje zahtijeva situacija. Kako pomiriti život znanstvenika radoholičara s obiteljskim životom? Pomaže li što je i vaša supruga,

redovito uzmemo koji dan više da razgledamo različite dijelove svijeta. Mislim da upravo zato što se tako dobro razumijemo i poslovno i privatno naša veza ima posebnu kvalitetu. Jeste li zahtjevan roditelj? Očekujete li i od djece izvrsnost i posvećenost znanosti? − Kad je riječ o djeci, mislim da je školovanje njihova osnovna obveza koju su obavili ako imaju sve petice ili ako mogu dokazati da su se doista trudili naučiti. Imam dvoje iznimno pametne male djece, zbog čega smatram da bi lošije ocjene značile da se nisu dovoljno trudili i to mi ne bi bilo prihvatljivo. S druge strane, mislim da je funkcija roditelja djeci dati podršku da mogu ostvariti sve što žele, no izbor toga što žele jest njihov i ja im ga ne želim nametati, nisam autoritativan roditelj.

tjedan narasti na 2500 ili čak 10.000 mrtvih dnevno. Srećom, to se nije dogodilo. Na primjeru New Yorka naučili smo da SARS-CoV-2 vjerojatno ne može ubiti više od oko 0,5 posto ukupne populacije jedne regije. To jesu potencijalno ogromni brojevi, no nisu kataklizmički jer svake godine zbog različitih drugih razloga umre znatno veći broj ljudi. Kada su objavljeni rezultati istraživanja u New Yorku, objavio sam na svojem profilu na Facebooku da je vrijeme da otvorimo šampanjac.

sped up everything I could in life. I finished my secondary education in three rather than four years, I graduated from university in just over three and a half years, and received my doctorate less than three years after that. I had three children by the age of 25, and I already have two grandchildren − says Gordan Lauc (50), PhD, professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at the Faculty of Pharmacy and Biochemistry in Zagreb and founder of Genos, a successful Croatian private research institute, which collaborates with leading research institutes in the world. This is how he explained to us why he thinks that he’s biologically as many as 20 years older than his chronological age. How can his knowledge of this be as precise as this? Can any of us know what our exact biological age is? Can we know the extent to which we have worn our bodies out and/or the extent to which we have kept our bodies biologically young? Yes, we can. That’s exactly one of the things that Genos does. − Genos specialises in conducting large-scale clinical research that analyse glycan biomarkers. So far, we’ve analysed glycan samples of over 150,000 people in collaboration with research institutes in Europe, the US, Australia and China. Our GlycanAge test is the first commercial product resulting from this research. By analysing glycans on immunoglobulins, we found that they change with age. The glycans found in young people have a

structure that suppresses inflammation, while those found in older people promote inflammatory processes and so contribute to the process of gradual organism decay associated with aging. However, we’ve shown that glycans in all humans do not change at the same rate and that there’s a difference between our biological age and our actual, chronological age. This difference largely depends on our lifestyle. The GlycanAge test can objectively measure the state of our body on the molecular level, which gives us insight into our general state of health. GlycanAge is not a diagnostic test for a specific disease. It rather reveals whether our homeostasis has already been disturbed and whether we’re on the way to getting sick. More specifically, complex diseases begin long before we start experiencing their first symptoms. For instance, by analysing glycans, we can

food, which makes losing weight difficult for me. I lost as many as 10 kilograms on several occasions and my GlycanAge started to decrease. But in the end I regained those kilograms relatively quickly, and so my GlycanAge started to increase again. On top of it all, I live an extremely fast-paced life which certainly contributes to my increased glycan age. Given today’s COVID-19 pandemic, is it important to find out what our biological age is and to work on reducing it because it’s been shown that older people are much more vulnerable? − The greatest mystery of the COVID-19 disease is the fact that most people will get over it as they would over a slightly heavier cold. Age is the strongest predictor of a person developing a severe form of the disease. Older people are up to a hundred times more likely to develop a severe form

Ova pandemija podsjetila nas je kako je važno osobno brinuti o svojem zdravlju This pandemic has reminded us just how important it is to take care of our health

of it. And yet, most very old people won’t develop a severe form of the disease, while some young people will. There are obviously some other risk factors that we haven’t yet discovered. The GlycanAge test, or different biomarkers of biological age, may be able to better predict the chance of someone developing a severe form of the disease than the chronological age of patients and this is one of the hypotheses that we’ve been extensively exploring today. Regardless of which biomarker of biological age proves to be the best predictor of someone developing a severe form of the COVID-19 disease, this pandemic has reminded us just how important it is to take care of our health. The GlycanAge test can be of great help in this respect because

see the processes that lead to arthritis, Crohn’s disease, diabetes or a heart attack as many as five to ten years prior to the onset of the actual disease. Did the results of your GlycanAge test scare you? − No. Our research has clearly shown that there are four key elements that make you be biologically older. These are diet, exercise, stress and sleep. By performing multiple GlycanAge tests over the period of 5 years, I realised that losing weight is unfortunately the only way to mend, so to speak, my biological age. And I really love

it allows us to discover early on which changes in lifestyle habits have the best effect on our health. You’ve also gotten involved with research on coronavirus, currently the biggest challenge for scientists. − When the world virtually stopped dead in its tracks because of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, a large number of scientists redirected their research in the hope of discovering a way of getting life back on track. As the world’s leading laboratory for the research of glycan biomarkers, Genos set up, at a very early stage of the pandemic, a large international consortium to collect samples of patients suffering from severe and mild forms of the disease and to have them sent to our laboratory for analysis. To date, we’ve analysed a large number of glycan samples of patients from Bergamo and Barcelona, and we’ve been writing a research paper about it. We’re expecting several more large groups of subjects, which means that we’ll have analysed several thousand patients. We hope that our knowledge of glycans will contribute to developing a personalised approach to treating the COVID-19 disease. In parallel with organising groups of patients for glycan analysis, we’ve also collected clinical data, which enabled us to be the first in the world to show that the nature of COVID-19 is very seasonal, and that for patients the disease is significantly milder in summer than in winter. This explains why mortality rates dropped significantly across the northern hemisphere with the arrival of spring. But this also warns us that, with the arrival of winter, we could again have an increase in the number of severe forms of the disease. Glycans may again be underlying these seasonal differences. All organisms are in a constant battle against viruses and bacteria, so during the course of evolution we’ve developed numerous active protection mechanisms that function on the level of individual organisms. In sensitive areas, such as the inside of the mouth or nose, we’ve developed mucosal barriers which are protected by a particularly thick glycan shield. Containing special baits that catch viruses and bacteria, thick mucus is constantly circulating over this shield. These baits are molecules − we call them mucins − that contain in their structure glycan-like parts on the surface of our cells. Mucins bind viruses and, by doing so, they prevent viruses from binding to our

cells. Special cilia in our airways move this mucous layer outwards and so prevent viruses from entering the lungs, and redirect them to the oesophagus and the stomach in the end, where stomach acid kills them. Mucosal barrier is very effective protection, but is sensitive to getting dried out. If the relative humidity of the air we inhale is less than 40 to 50 percent, it’ll dry our mucous barrier out and inactivate it. That dry air is harmful has been unequivocally confirmed by animal experiments. It’s also indicative that the seasonal outbreaks of flu and common colds coincide with the heating season when the air in heated rooms is dry. Relative humidity levels of cold air are also very low, but a large number of people are still unaware of this, as well as of the fact that, by airing their living spaces frequently, they dry out the air they breathe too much. We do need to ventilate our living spaces, but we should do so by opening more windows and doors all at once for a short time, replace the air and then restore its humidity level with special humidifiers or by simply boiling water on the cooker or by placing damp towels on radiators. You’re also involved with personalised medicine. What novelty does it bring? − Yes, we also do tests in the field of forensic genetics and molecular diagnostics, and in this, we’ve been collaborating with St. Catherine Specialty Hospital, together with which we’re launching a large-scale project the goal of which is the introduction of pharmacogenetic testing into routine practice. Unfortunately, when deciding on therapy, not enough attention is paid to the fact that people are different and that they react differently to certain drugs. Cutting-edge molecular diagnostic tests allow us to determine how each individual will respond to a particular therapy by conducting a series of tests prior to deciding on therapy. This is how we help every patient get the right therapy at the right time. This approach is called personalised medicine and has been a strategic research priority worldwide. Are you sorry you didn’t stay in the US after your postdoctoral fellowship at Johns Hopkins University? − Considering that I’m entitled to use the addresses of world-renowned universities where I’ve been a visiting and honorary professor, I’m not entirely sure why I’ve been sending my research papers with my Zagreb address on them, nor am I sure why I returned from the US. It’s difficult to tell whether returning from the US was a good decision or not. There are no two realities, an experimental reality and its negative control, that I can compare analytically after some time as in science experiments. But, had the GlycanAge test been the result of research conducted at Hopkins or Harvard, I’d certainly be much more popular and investors would be fighting over who’s going to invest in it. On the other hand, in such large systems, an individual is nothing but a cog in the wheel, and that I’ve never been good at. I have always been pushing back the boundaries and have always been a few steps ahead of the mainstream. I’ve always wanted to create something big on my own. It’s probably a desire of mine to leave my mark, to make the world a little different because of what I do, and the desire to show that significant things can also be done in a small country. When I look at Genos today − which has been recognised as a world leader in the field even by our direct competitors despite the fact that it’s headquartered in Zagreb − and I see 50 top young people doing research in Zagreb at world level, it gives me immense satisfaction, and I’m sure that returning to Zagreb wasn’t a mistake.

What does coexistence with this virus mean to you? Did you change your lifestyle as a result? − I think that, in mid-March, we all became very worried when we saw that more than 500 people were dying every day in northern Italy. At the time, no one knew whether this figure would increase to 2,500 or even 10,000 deaths a day in as little as a few weeks. Fortunately, that did not happen. What happened in New York taught us that SARS-CoV-2 probably can’t kill more than about 0.5 percent of the total population of a region. These are potentially huge numbers, but they’re not cataclysmic because every year a much larger number of people die due to various other reasons. When the results of research from New York were published, I posted on my Facebook profile that it was time to open a bottle of champagne. Many didn’t understand this, but it was a moment when I realised that this isn’t a virus that has the potential to cause the collapse of our civilisation and, for me, that was a turning point in my approach to the pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 is a serious virus that requires us to act responsibly and to try to reduce the spread of the pandemic. However,

abis-croatia.com this will probably no longer require drastic measures. We’ll keep the pandemic under control by each individual acting responsibly, by maintaining social distancing and by wearing face masks when social distancing is not possible. For instance, wearing a plain surgical face mask on short flights can probably prevent the drying out of mucosa, and some airlines have already been considering the introduction of special face masks that would humidify the air on long flights. I’m sure that air traffic will adapt to the measures that today’s circumstances require us all to adhere to. Given that you’re a workaholic, how do you maintain a work-life balance? Does it help that your wife, Professor Vlatka Zoldoš, PhD, is also a renowned scientist, an expert in the fields of molecular biology and epigenetics, to be precise? − Scientists do not have working hours, which can be a big problem for your family life. But Vlatka and I understand each other well. We’re tolerant of each other, and understand each other’s needs, we give each other space. We’re both strong characters which can be a challenge, but our relationship is founded on love and understanding.

On top of it all, the areas of our research are closely related, so we collaborate a lot in our work as well. Her group researches epigenetics, mine glycosylation, and we work together in the area of epigenetic regulation of glycosylation. This allows us to attend science conferences together, so we regularly take a few more days off to see different parts of the world. I think that, precisely because we understand each other so well both work-wise and privately, our relationship has a special quality. Are you a demanding parent? Do you expect excellence from your children and that they be dedicated to science? − When it comes to children, I think that getting an education is their basic responsibility which they’ve fulfilled if they get all A’s or if they can prove that they’ve given their very best. I’ve got two very smart young children, and if their grades aren’t good, it means they haven’t tried hard enough and that would be unacceptable to me. On the other hand, I think that the role of parents is to support their children so that they can fulfil their full potential and their dreams, but the choice of what they want is theirs and I do not want to impose it on them. I’m not an authoritative parent.

ovaj dio Slavonije doći ćete brzo i jednostavno. Kroz cijelu županiju prolazi autocesta, od koje su sve atraktivne lokacije udaljene desetak kilometara. Automobilom ili motociklom ovdje ste od Zagreba za nekoliko sati. Bilo da ste ljubitelj asfalta i adrenalina ili želite miran obiteljski odmor, volite tradiciju i autentičnu ponudu, gurman ste i pivoljubac, vrijeme je za putovanje u Brodsko-posavsku županiju. U gradu U Slavonskom Brodu najdulji je korzo i najveća crkva u Slavoniji, obala uz rijeku Savu atraktivna je promenada, a impresivna Tvrđava Brod iz 18. stoljeća, spomenik nulte kategorije, jedan je od najjačih turističkih aduta ovoga kraja… U ovom su gradu živjeli poznati hrvatski pjesnik Dragutin Tadijanović i književnica Ivana Brlić Mažuranić. Njezin Potjeh, izmišljeni lik iz bajke koji sjedi na klupici uz Savu, glavni je brodski pozer na selfijima, a šetalištem uz rijeku, popularnim Kejom, doći ćete do Poloja, jedne od najljepših pješčanih plaža. Na ovom kupalištu proplivale su brojne generacije Brođana. Odbojka na pijesku, mali nogomet, sunčanje i kupanje do mile volje, debeli hlad na travici, roštiljanje dok se piće hladi u osvježavajućoj rijeci... Ako ste ljubitelj umjetnosti, posjetite izložbene salone Vladimir Becić u Galeriji umjetnina u prizemlju obiteljske kuće Brlićevih (u njoj je nakon udaje živjela Ivana Brlić Mažuranić), a u Tvrđavi Brod galeriju poznatog kipara moderne Branka Ružića i prvi svjetski Muzej tambure u

obnovljenom kazamatu zapadne kurtine. U Slavonskom Brodu živi i najpoznatiji par roda s najljepšom ljubavnom pričom. Svakog proljeća s nestrpljenjem se očekuje povratak Klepetana njegovoj Malenoj koja zbog ozlijeđenog krila nikada nije mogla letjeti pa se o njoj brine vlasnik kuće na čijem su krovu slavne rode savile gnijezdo. Uz Slavonski Brod, Brodsko-posavska županija ima još jedan grad − Novu Gradišku, s iznimno lijepim središtem kasnog baroka. Tu su crkva sv. Terezije Avilske iz sredine 18. stoljeća, župna crkva Bezgrešnog Začeća Blažene Djevice Marije iz 19. stoljeća, zgrada Glavne straže sa starim sudom i zatvorom ukrašena boltama, gimnazija, gradski park u engleskom stilu s vodoskokom Tri gracije, secesijska zgrada tiskare i knjižare Bauer u kojoj se danas nalazi turistički ured, poznata gradiška zgrada Paun… Kad ste u Novoj Gradiški, ne propustite izlet na jedan od vrhova Psunja i uživajte u pogled na Slavoniju iz posve nove perspektive. Na selu Etno-eko selo Stara Kapela na obroncima Požeške gore, Ranč Ramarin u Garčinu, Kuća dida Tunje u Oprisavcima, Eko-etno Salaš Savus u Bukovlju, Matin i Anin stan u Gornjim Crnogorcima, Seoski turizam Kereković u Živikama, Seljačko domaćinstvo Opođe u Cerniku, Gospodarstvo Paljevine na diljskoj visoravni Jezerac − ova mjesta prava su otkrića za ljubitelje ruralnog turizma i tradicijske baštine.

juhe (legirana juha od graševine topla je preporuka), sočna sarma, vrhunski čobanac, nadaleko poznat fiš ili šaran u rašljama, odlična divljač slavonskih šuma i za kraj domaće tačke i štrudl od jabuka. Tu je sve pripremljeno s puno pažnje i ljubavi, a potvrdu tradicijske kuhinje, prestižnu oznaku Okusi graničarskog Posavlja, nosi petnaestak restorana. Za početak nazdravite mirisnom šljivovicom ili pravim slavonskim džinom, ne propustite čašu izvrsnog craft piva ili vrhunske graševine iz stupničkih brda. Gurmanski raj!

ou’ll reach this part of Slavonia quickly and easily. A motorway runs through the entire county, with all its attractive locations within an approximately ten-kilometre range from the motorway. You’re there from Zagreb in a couple of hours either by car or motorcycle. Regardless of whether you’re a fan of hitting the road by bike and of adrenaline or are looking for a peaceful family vacation, whether you love tradition and authentic experiences or are a foodie and beer lover, it’s time to visit the Brod-Posavina County.

In town The town of Slavonski Brod boasts the longest promenade and the largest church in Slavonia, the bank along the Sava River is a fabulous promenade, and the impressive 18th-century Brod Fortress − a heritage site of the highest category − is one of the region’s strongest cards attracting tourists like a magnet... The famous Croatian poet Dragutin Tadijanović and writer Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić lived in Slavonski Brod. Sitting on a bench by the Sava River, Potjeh − Ivana BrlićMažuranić’s fictional fairy-tale character − poses in pretty much all selfies, and if you take a walk along the river promenade, the popular Kej (quay in English), you’ll reach Poloj, one of the most beautiful sandy beaches. Countless generations of Brodians, people born or living in Slavonski Brod, learnt how to swim at this beach. Beach volleyball, five-a-side football, sunbathing and swimming to your heart’s content, chilling in the deep shade on the grass of the riverside, barbecuing while drinks are cooled in the refreshing river... If you’re an art lover, you should visit the Vladimir Becić exhibition halls of the Art Gallery on the ground floor of the Brlić

family house, which is where Ivana BrlićMažuranić lived after she got married. Also, the Brod Fortress houses the Ružić Gallery exhibiting the works of Croatia’s famous modernist sculptor Branko Ružić, and the world’s first Tamburitza Museum located in the restored western curtain casemate. Telling a most beautiful love story year after year, Slavonski Brod is also where the most famous stark couple lives. Each

Besides Slavonski Brod, the Brod-Posavina County has another town, namely Nova Gradiška, boasting a stunning late Baroque town centre. The sights of Nova Gradiška include the Church of St. Teresa of Ávila from the mid-18th century, the parish Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary from the 19th century, the vaulted Main Guard building housing the old courthouse and prison, a grammar school, an English landscape garden style park featuring The Three Graces fountain, the Art Nouveau building of the Bauer printing office and bookstore (today housing the tourist office), Nova Gradiška’s famous Paun (peacock in translation) building, etc. When in Nova Gradiška, make sure you visit one of the peaks of Psunj Mountain to enjoy a view of Slavonia from a completely new perspective. In the countryside The Stara Kapela Eco-Ethno Village on the slopes of Požeška Gora (Požega Mountain in translation), Ramarin Ranch in Garčin, Grandpa Tunje’s House family restaurant in Oprisavci, Savus Eco-Ethno Farm in Bukovlje, Mate and Ana’s Farm in Gornji Crnogorci, the Kereković Family Farm and Guest House in Živike, the Opođe Family Farm and Guest House in Cernik, the Paljevine Family Farm and Estate on Jezerac

Slavonian customs are easy to get used to, Slavonian food is mouth-watering, all home-made, home-grown and prepared the way Slavonian women of old (called snaše in Croatian) used to. The countryside of the Brod-Posavina County is perfect for all nature lovers, for all who’re into socialising with the locals, recreation and sports in the great outdoors. The Brod-Posavina County is networked with trails, so almost every corner of the county can be explored by bicycle. Slavonski Brod, Nova Gradiška, picturesque villages, forests, the riverside − take your pick and set out on an adventure. Seize the chance to visit the artificial Petnja Lake on the southern slopes of Dilj Mountain, the erosive Pljuskara Canyon with several waterfalls and caves, the Dvorina Pond bird reserve, Gajna pasture and its wetland plant and animal life where Podolian cattle, the Posavac breed of horses and black Slavonian pigs graze...

In Slavonia, much love and attention is invested in food preparation. As a result, some fifteen restaurants boast the prestigious Tastes of Posavina’s Frontier label confirming that what they offer is traditional cuisine. For starters, make sure you toast with fragrant plum brandy called šljivovica or real Slavonian gin, don’t miss out on a glass of excellent craft beer or top-quality Graševina wine from the hills of Stupnik.

Tekst/Text: Turistička zajednica grada Zagreba / Zagreb Tourist Board

M. D. Pečanić/Hrvatska turistička zajednica/Croatian National Tourist Board

legantne zagrebačke donjogradske građevine evociraju davne dane Austro-Ugarske Monarhije, dok boje, mirisi i okusi na tržnici Dolac predstavljaju bogatstvo plodova i proizvoda iz ruralne okolice Zagreba. A upravo to dvoje okosnica je svega. Stara zagrebačka građanska kuhinja uzor je pronašla u Beču pa su tako mnoga udomaćena jela samo varijacija na teme koje nalazimo na prostoru cijele srednje Europe. S druge strane, grad se prirodno oslanjao na domaće namirnice sa sela, a s njima su dolazile i recepture skromne seljačke kuhinje. No ipak nije sve tako jednostavno. Kroz stoljeća povijesti i okruženosti stranim silama, stigli su na zagrebačke stolove i drugi utjecaji − mediteranski (najviše talijanski, a posebno venecijanski), orijentalni (konkretnije, turski), mađarski... Povoljan zemljopisni položaj na sjecištu različitih kultura ostavio je ukusan trag na zagrebačkoj gastronomskoj karti. Zagrepčani su otvorena duha, ali kad je riječ o hrani, ipak najviše vole prokušano i poznato. Na cijeni je domaći kruh, pogotovo kukuruzni, jede se mnogo mesa i suhomesnatih proizvoda, krumpira, jaja i domaćih verzija tjestenine, ali i obilje sezonskoga povrća i voća, pa i gljiva. Veoma su važni mliječni proizvodi, posebno domaći sir i vrhnje. Osim što ih pomiješane služimo kao hladno predjelo, ova je kombinacija i temelj za punjenje drugih jela. Pravi obrok mora se odigrati bez žurbe, po ustaljenu scenariju od predjela, glavnog jela sa salatom pa do deserta, a krepka bistra juha prava je svetinja. I gablec, topli obrok radnog čovjeka, najbolji je kad je na žlicu. Već sam pogled na svakodnevne izraze iz zagrebačkog kulinarskog žargona otkriva povezanost s austrijskim nasljeđem: čušpajz, kifl, grincajg, šnicl, štrudl, šnenokli, knedli... Neka od omiljenih jela koja predstavljaju lokalnu tradiciju jesu ajngemahtec, štrukli, purica ili patka s mlincima, zagrebački odrezak, restani krumpir, krvavice sa zeljem, špek fileki, faširanci s varivom, bučnica, knedli sa šljivama ili marelicama, palačinke sa sirom itd. U široj ćemo okolici pak naći autohtone specijalitete kao što su rudarska greblica, vrbovečka pera, kremšnita, muštarda ili copanjek. Opća mjesta zagrebačkog jelovnika najbolje je kušati u nizu gostionica i zalogajnica staroga kova, a fina domaća jela pripremaju se i u planinarskim domovima

po Sljemenu. Moderniji pristup njeguju bistroi kojih ne manjka u širem centru Zagreba. Zajedničko im je da će se rado poigrati s tradicijom i interpretirati je na svoj način, ubacujući dašak svjetskih trendova. Visoka kuhinja u Zagrebu trenutačno je u visokoj formi. Autorska jela vrhunskih restorana zadovoljit će i najistančanija nepca, što su prepoznali renomirani svjetski vodiči kao što su Michelin i Gault&Millau. Za širenje gastronomskih vidika tu je sve veći broj

etničkih restorana, a posebna restoranska podvrsta vječno je popularni roštilj, čija ponuda varira od uličnih kioska do otmjenih lokala, od balkanske škole do američkog stila. Kao glavni grad stare vinske zemlje, Zagreb voli i prepoznaje dobra vina. Blažen je u neposrednom okruženju nekoliko iznimnih vinskih regija s pripadajućim vinskim cestama. Najpoznatija je ona plešivička, odakle dolaze ponajbolji

produce and products from Zagreb’s rural surroundings. And it’s precisely these two that are the very backbone of Zagreb’s cuisine. Zagreb’s old cuisine followed in the footsteps of Vienna, so many of the dishes that Zagreb accepted as its own are, in reality, a variation on the themes found throughout Central Europe. On the other hand, the city naturally relied on home-grown foods and produce coming from the surrounding countryside, and with them came recipes for simple peasant dishes. Yet, not everything is that simple. Over the centuries and owing to having been surrounded by foreign powers, other culinary influences found their way to Zagreb’s dining tables − Mediterranean (mostly Italian and especially Venetian), Oriental (more specifically, Turkish), Hungarian, etc. The city’s favourable geographical position at the crossroads to different cultures left a delicious mark on Zagreb’s culinary map. The inhabitants of Zagreb, Zagrebians, are open-minded, but when it comes to food, they prefer the tried and trusted. What we value most are homemade breads, cornbread in particular, different meats and cured meat products, potatoes, eggs and different homemade pastas, as well as

hrvatski pjenušci, izvrstan rizling, sivi i crni pinot, ali i mlado jesensko vino portugizac. Zelina gradi svoju priču na autohtonoj bijeloj sorti zvanoj kraljevina, dok je samoborska vinska cesta jedinstvena po bermetu, aromatičnom aperitivu na temelju crnog vina. Iako je pivo itekako popularno i prisutno gotovo dva i pol stoljeća, pivska je ponuda procvala posljednjih godina s pojavom zanatskih pivovara. Njihov je entuzijazam dao poticaj i mikrodestilerijama pa se Zagreb sad može pohvaliti i rastućom scenom craft džinova. No oni skloniji tradiciji u području žestokih pića uvijek na izbor imaju mnoštvo kvalitetnih voćnih rakija i likera, a vrlo je tražen gorki biljni liker pelinkovac. Ipak, najomiljenije piće bez premca jest kava, kojom većina Zagrepčana započinje svoj dan. Uz to, kava služi i kao poziv na druženje, predah od užurbanog ritma svakodnevice. Zastati da se uživa u malim radostima ključan je element zagrebačkog stila života, a to se najbolje vidi upravo za stolom.

main dish with a salad on the side to a dessert, with a hearty clear soup considered an absolute must. A working man’s meal of the day called gablec is best had with a spoon. Just a quick look at everyday expressions from Zagreb’s culinary jargon reveals its close ties with its Austrian legacy: čušpajz (a one-pot vegetable stew; from the German word Zuspeise), kifl (a type of savoury roll; from the German word Kipferl), grincajg (a vegetable bundle consisting of carrots, celery, parsley and kohlrabi unavoidable when making clear soup; from the German word Grünzeug), šnicl (escalope and/or schnitzel; from the German word Schnitzel), štrudl (from the German word Strudel), šnenokle (egg white dumplings with cream of milk and egg yolks; from the German word Schneenockerl), knedli (plum- or apricotfilled potato dumplings; from the German word Knödel), etc. Some of the favourite, local traditional dishes are ajngemahtec (chicken ragù soup; from the German word Eingemachtes), štrukli (cheese-filled pasta-like pastry), roast turkey or duck with mlinci (boiled thin-dried flatbread), Zagreb schnitzel (breaded ham-and-cheese filled veal), boiled potatoes sautéed with onions, paprika and sometimes diced bacon

originating from the village of Rude near the town of Samobor after which it was named), vrbovečka pera (a savoury cottage cheese and sour cream pie typical of the town of Vrbovec and its surroundings), samoborska kremšnita (vanilla custard cream cake that the town of Samobor is well-known for), samoborska muštarda (a tangy red-wineflavoured ground mustard spread originating from the town of Samobor) or copanjek (a thin savoury cottage cheese and seasonal greens pie typical of the region of Plešivica Hills). The bulk of dishes typical of Zagreb’s menu are best tried in any of its many traditional inns and luncheonettes, although fine local dishes are also prepared in mountain lodges on Medvednica Mountain. A more modern approach is nurtured by bistros, which Zagreb’s wider city centre area doesn’t seem to be lacking in. What they all have in common is that they’re happy to play with tradition and interpret it in their own and individual way, and add a touch of world trends. Zagreb’s haute cuisine scene is currently in excellent shape.

Stanovnici Lijepe Naše već su naviknuti da se u Hrvatskoj u posljednje vrijeme sve češće snimaju holivudske uspješnice. Štoviše, na brojnim hrvatskim lokacijama snimljeno je nekoliko desetaka visokobudžetnih serija i filmova. Na njima su radili i mnogi domaći filmski stručnjaci.

Croatians have already grown accustomed to the fact that, in recent years, Croatia has served as a set for many Hollywood blockbusters. More specifically, in the last few years, tens of series and movies have been shot in numerous locations around Croatia, whose productions have been worked on by a myriad of local film industry professionals as well.

I zahvaljujući uspjehu serije Igra prijestolja Dubrovnik je u očima mnogih postao i ostao King’s Landing, odnosno Kraljev Grudobran. Da, Stradun osvaja na prvu, to znaju i svi koji rade na spomenutome setu jer samo je prva sezona snimljena drugdje. Od 2012. godine HBOova je uspješnica snimana u Hrvatskoj, a pojedine statistike kažu da je Dubrovnik zbog ove serije u tri godine posjetilo dodatnih četvrt milijuna turista. Takve brojke uopće ne čude kada uzmemo u obzir da je pojam Game of Thrones Croatia na najpoznatijoj internetskoj tražilici pretražen

Posljednja epizoda cjelokupnog serijala premijerno je emitirana baš u Dubrovniku, na glavnoj lokaciji Igre prijestolja. Tvrđava Revelin s velikim projekcijskim platnom poslužila je kao odlična kulisa za nezaboravan doživljaj koji će brojni inozemni novinari, blogeri i obožavatelji serije pamtiti čitav život! Osim popularne serije, Dubrovnik je ugostio i znanstveno-fantastični film Ratovi zvijezda, i to u ožujku 2016. godine.

Osim mnogih posjetitelja koji su obišli hrvatske lokacije na kojima su se snimale serije i filmovi, iznimno nas veseli što i one same prepoznaju mnoge prednosti kada je u pitanju filmska industrija.

što možemo biti itekako ponosni. No povijest stranih produkcija na našim prostorima seže još u dvadesete godine prošlog stoljeća, a kulminacija je započela šezdesetih godina prošlog stoljeća. Proces Orsona Wellesa, oskarovski Guslač na krovu Normana Jewisona ili pak Sofijin izbor Alana J. Pakule samo su neki od istaknutijih primjera strane produkcije koja je hrvatski pejzaž pretočila na veliko platno ili male ekrane. Filmski turizam na svjetskoj karti proslavio se davne 1953. godine, kada je na rimsko tlo kročila Audrey Hepburn. Zahvaljujući filmu Praznik u Rimu popularnost talijanske prijestolnice strahovito je porasla. Ali Hrvatska nije bila daleko. U šezdesetima je u Hrvatskoj sniman u ono vrijeme iznimno popularan serijal filmova o indijanskom poglavici Winnetouu prema romanima Karla Maya. U razdoblju između 1962. i 1968. u području oko Starigrada-Paklenice snimljeno je čak 11 filmova. Divlji zapad glumili su Velebit, 01 Oko Starigrada-Paklenice snimljeno je čak 11 filmova o indijanskom poglavici Winnetouu Around Starigrad-Paklenica, as many as 11 films were shot about the Indian chief Winnetou 02 Muzej Winnetoua čuva mnoge originalne filmske rekvizite The Winnetou Museum has many of the original film props exhibited 03 Tradicionalni susret fanova Winnetoua uz kanjon Zrmanje A traditional meeting of Winnetou fans near the Zrmanja Canyon

Osim Zagreba svjetskim producentima i glumcima najprivlačniji su Split, Rijeka i otok Pag te, dakako, već spomenuti Dubrovnik.

filmske produkcije, potvrđuje i činjenica da su Netflix, Amazon, HBO te holivudski studiji česti gosti na hrvatskim lokacijama. Za Netflix je snimana serija Medical Police, a prvi se put u našoj zemlji snimila i čitava sezona jedne serije. Riječ je o britansko-američkoj ratnoj seriji Strike Back nastaloj prema bestseleru Chrisa Ryana. No nemojte misliti da su samo hrvatsko more i planine odlična

Velika glumačka zvijezda Salma Hayek zahvaljujući snimanjima u posljednje vrijeme dobro je upoznala Hrvatsku. Na ulicama Rovinja, Rijeke i Zagreba snimala je visokobudžetni film The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard sa svojim filmskim partnerom Ryanom Reynoldsom, a u Splitu film Bliss s Owenom Wilsonom. Salma Hayek u Hrvatskoj je boravila u pratnji supruga, francuskog milijardera François-Henrija Pinaulta. A na set je stigla i supruga Ryana Reynoldsa. Prelijepa Blake Lively nije mogla odoljeti čarima Hrvatske pa je svoj boravak u ovim krajevima iskoristila i za snimanje reklame za brend džina svojeg supruga. Obožavatelji popularnog holivudskog para danima su im pokušavali ući u trag! Hollywood ili Crollywood? Hrvatska je svoje mjesto na svjetskoj karti itekako zaslužila jer u posljednjih nekoliko godina našim ulicama − zahvaljujući upravo ovom holivudskom desantu na našu prekrasnu zemlju − osim partijanera, gastroblogera ili pak ljubitelja adrenalina šeću i zaljubljenici u sedmu umjetnost. Nije li čarobno buditi se na filmskome setu?

Za brojne turiste koji i danas žele posjetiti ta mjesta prije deset godina otvoren je i Muzej Winnetoua u Starigradu-Paklenici koji čuva mnoge originalne filmske rekvizite, a tragovima Karla Maya organiziraju se i ture te izletnički programi. Ista stvar dogodila se i Barceloni kada ju je u svoju filmsku uspješnicu uvrstio Woody Allen zahvaljujući Vicky i Christini. Nakon filma Jedi, moli, voli i otok Bali doživio je turističku renesansu. Naime, na otok su mahom pohrlile žene kojima je trebao hrabar životni preokret baš poput lika koji je u tom filmu utjelovila Julia Roberts. No možda je ipak najpoznatija filmska lokacija na svijetu novozelandski Hobbiton, koji u špici sezone dnevno posjeti i do 2000 turista. Jednak preokret dogodio se i na Visu kada je otok ugostio čitavu produkciju filma Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. Neodoljiva Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan i Colin Firth ostali su opijeni ljepotom ovog otoka, iako je u filmu glumio grčki otok s obzirom na to da se prvi nastavak globalnog kinohita snimao upravo ondje. Neodoljivi Vis, koji je gotovo pola stoljeća bio izoliran kao vojni otok, svojom je netaknutom prirodom holivudske producente jednostavno ostavio bez teksta. No ne samo njih!

Thrones are strolling along Dubrovnik’s main street, Stradun, and Salma Hayek’s waving a revolver around in the streets of Rovinj. Thanks to the success of the Game of Thrones series, Dubrovnik has become and remains in the eyes of many − King’s Landing. Yes, Stradun wins you over instantly. Everyone who worked on the set of the Game of Thrones knows it, given that only the first season was filmed elsewhere. The filming of this HBO blockbuster series moved to Croatia in 2012, and some statistics say that, in three years, a quarter million tourists visited Dubrovnik only because the series was shot there. Such figures are not at all surprising if we bear in mind that a search for the term Game of Thrones Croatia using the most famous in-

ternet search engine hits millions of search results, and the fact that tens of millions of viewers have watched the series. The film industry has evidently been contributing not only to the popularity of Croatia, but also to how well visited it actually is. It was also in Dubrovnik, the main set of the Game of Thrones, where the final episode of the entire series was premiered. Revelin Fortress − where a projection screen was installed for the premiere − made a splendid backdrop to an unforgettable experience that many foreign reporters, bloggers and Game of Thrones fans will remember for the rest of their lives! Besides the popular Game of Thrones, Dubrovnik also hosted the sci-fi movie Star Wars in March 2016. In Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the Croatian pearl acted as the galaxy’s glamorous city of Canto Bight. Dubrovnik also acted as legendary Nottingham, the medieval town in which Robin Hood is set, because of which Jamie Foxx too drank coffee somewhere along Dubrovnik’s city walls. − Globally famous films and series impact the global promotion of our country

positively, there’s no question about it. In addition to many visitors visiting the Croatian locations of these movie sets, we’re extremely pleased that these Croatian locations have themselves, as destinations, recognised the many benefits that they’ve been gaining from the film industry. Quality destination-specific package holidays comprising guided tours, set-related brochures and other themed content have been attracting many fans from around the world − said Kristjan Staničić, managing director of the Croatian National Tourist Board. Just how powerful film and television is has been confirmed, he added, by two Korean productions. Namely, The Romantic and Noonas over Flowers, both of which were shot in Croatia attracting large numbers of tourists from South Korea. Dubrovnik isn’t the only place visited by tourists because of the Game of Thrones. Stunning locations in Šibenik, Split and Trogir also served as inspiration for the creators of the series. That Croatia has indeed become a magnet for top international film productions is also confirmed by the fact that Croatian locations often host production companies, such as Netflix, Amazon, HBO and Hollywood studios, with last year having been remarkably successful in this regard. Last year’s first location filming project that was to be shot in Croatia was the Medical

Police series filmed for Netflix. Also, Croatia saw the shooting of an entire season of a television series on location in Croatia. Namely, Strike Back, a British-American war series based on Chris Ryan’s bestseller. But, thinking that only Croatia’s coastline and mountains are great film sets is wrong, because Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, has much to boast about as well. 2018, for example, saw the filming of 150 projects in Zagreb alone. Besides Zagreb, foreign producers and actors are most attracted by Split, Rijeka, the Island of Pag and, of course, Dubrovnik. Last year’s autumn didn’t bring filming to a halt, given that it was reserved for the filming of Murina, a film backed by Martin Scorsese’s production company, which Croatia can pride itself on. The history of foreign productions filmed in the region began in the 1920s, and started

gathering momentum in the 1960s. Orson Welles’s The Trial, Norman Jewison’s Oscar-winning Fiddler on the Roof or Alan J. Pakula’s Sophie’s Choice are just some of the more prominent foreign productions filmed in Croatia, thanks to which Croatia’s landscape found itself on the big or small screen. Film-induced tourism was put on the map back in 1953, when Audrey Hepburn made an appearance in Rome. Thanks to the Roman Holiday, the popularity of the Italian capital as a destination skyrocketed. And Croatia wasn’t lagging behind very much. In the 1960s, Croatia was the set where the Winnetou film series about an extremely popular Indian chief of the same name based on Karl May’s novels was filmed. Between 1962 and 1968, as many as 11 films were shot in the surroundings of Starigrad-Paklenica. The Velebit Mountain Range, the canyon

of the Zrmanja River, the town of Omiš and the Cetina River, Grobnik Field (Grobničko Polje in Croatian), Platak Mountain, Vrana Lake, etc., were all Wild West movie sets. For those interested in Winnetou today, in Starigrad-Paklenica the Winnetou Museum was opened ten years ago. It exhibits many of the original film props and offers Winnetou filming location tours. The same thing happened to Barcelona when Woody Allen decided to set his movie blockbuster Vicky Cristina Barcelona in − Barcelona. After Eat Pray Love premiered, Bali has enjoyed a renaissance in tourism. More specifically, following in the footsteps of the main character played by Julia Roberts, women wanting to make a bold decision that would change their lives radically started flocking to Bali. But, the world’s most famous filming location is New Zealand’s Hobbiton, visited by up to 2000 tourists daily during peak season. The same thing happened to the Island of Vis after it hosted the entire production team of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. The irresistible Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan and Colin Firth were intoxicated by the beauty of the island, although it stood in for a Greek island given that the first movie was filmed in Greece. Having been isolated as a military stronghold for almost half a century, the captivating Island of Vis and its pristine nature left Hollywood producers speechless. And not just them. The European Film Commissions Network’s 2018 selection for best European filming location confirms this, given that

the Island of Vis was one of the candidates running for the award. Even Jackie Chan once chased around Zagreb thanks to his Armour of God, and in 2015 the islands of Hvar, Vis and Biševo played host to Jacques Cousteau’s submarine during the filming of The Odyssey, a film about the life of the legendary explorer. The great film star Salma Hayek too has gotten to know Croatia very well, and this thanks to her starring in films shot in Croatia. She acted on the streets of Rovinj, Rijeka and Zagreb together with her on-screen partners Samuel L. Jackson and Ryan Reynolds during the making of the big-budget film The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, and in Split together with Owen Wilson during the shooting of Bliss. During her stays in Croatia, Salma Hayek was accompanied by her husband, French billionaire François-Henri Pinault. While in Croatia, Ryan Reynolds was also in the company of his wife − the beautiful Blake Lively couldn’t resist the magic of Croatia, so she used her time in this part of the world to shoot an advertisement for her husband’s brand of gin. Fans of the famous Hollywood couple were trying to track them down for days! Hollywood or Crollywood? Croatia’s earned its place on the world map because, in recent years, its streets have been packed not just with partygoers, food bloggers and adrenaline junkies, but also with devotees of the art of film, and this thanks to Hollywood having landed in Croatia. Isn’t it magical to wake up on a film set?

plitsko-dalmatinska županija, ali i cijela Hrvatska, odnedavno ima novu neodoljivu atrakciju − nebesku šetnicu Skywalk Biokovo. Nalazi se u jugozapadnom dijelu Parka prirode Biokovo, na 13. kilometru biokovske ceste, neposredno uz info-centar Ravna Vlaška, na visini od 1228 metara nad morem. Impozantan je to primjer povećanja atraktivnosti prirodne lokacije zahvaljujući ekstremnoj komponenti, odnosno adrenalinskoj šetnji staklenom plohom na velikoj visini s koje se pruža fascinantan pogled na Makarsku rivijeru i otoke. Slavo Jakša, ravnatelj Parka prirode Biokovo, otkrio je kako je kao inspiracija za ovu impresivnu atrakciju poslužila nebeska šetnica u obliku potkove u Grand Canyonu u SAD-u. No cilj biokovske

šetnice nije bio samo impresionirati posjetitelje kojih će nesumnjivo s vremenom biti sve više, nego njihovim dolaskom osigurati i dodatni prihod za zaštitu prelijepe i dragocjene prirode Parka prirode Biokovo, a zajedno s ostalim projektnim aktivnostima unaprijediti obrazovni kapacitet posjetitelja razvojem novih edukacijskih programa i sadržaja te povećati atraktivnost prirodne baštine parka i broj posjetitelja ulaganjem u infrastrukturu i sadržaje. Vidikovac može primiti do 30 posjetitelja u isto vrijeme, a do njega se može doći tzv. biokovskom cestom, koja vodi od glavnog ulaza u Park prirode Biokovo na državnoj cesti D512 (Makarska−Vrgorac) prema najvišem vrhu, Svetom Juri (1762 m). Pristup platformi omogućen je sa sjeveroistočne strane s pomoću

dvaju stubišta koja su smještena s istočne i zapadne strane od info-centra, što omogućuje učinkovit kružni promet posjetitelja bez stvaranja gužve. Na platformi se posjetitelji mogu zadržati najviše pet minuta. Park je službeno otvoren od travnja do studenoga jer u zimskim mjesecima pristup posjetiteljima iz sigurnosnih razloga nije dopušten, između ostaloga i zbog zimskih uvjeta na cestama. Radno

vrijeme PP Biokovo jest od 6 do 20 sati, a Nebeske šetnice od 8 do 20 h, ovisno o vremenskim uvjetima. Uređenje Skywalka − Nebeske šetnice jedna je od ukupno 12 aktivnosti projekta naziva Novi Adrion − Promicanje održivog korištenja prirodne baštine koje Javna ustanova Park prirode Biokovo već duže vrijeme provodi, a financira se sredstvima Europskog fonda za regionalni razvoj u okviru Operativnog programa Konkurent-

Cijeli projekt umnogome će obogatiti ponudu Parka prirode Biokovo, dok samoj Nebeskoj šetnici mnogi uza sve to predviđaju i romantičnu budućnost. Naime, mnogi parovi ne skrivaju želju da

It’s an impressive example of how the attraction of a natural location can be increased thanks to its extreme component − an adrenaline-fuelled walk on a glass surface at high altitude, offering a fascinating view of the Makarska Riviera and the surrounding islands. Director of the Biokovo Nature Park, Slavo Jakša, revealed that Biokovo’s impressive attraction was inspired by the horseshoeshaped Grand Canyon Skywalk in the US.

Yet, the Biokovo Skywalk aims not only to impress visitors, whose numbers will unquestionably increase over time, but also to provide additional income for the protection of the stunningly beautiful and priceless natural environment of the Biokovo Nature Park, and ultimately to educate visitors by developing new informative programmes and facilities, and increase the attraction of the park’s natural heritage and the number of visitors by investing in infrastructure and facilities. The lookout point can be reached by the so-called Biokovo Road − which leads from the main entrance to the Biokovo Nature Park on D512 State Road (MakarskaVrgorac) to the highest peak of Biokovo, Sv. Jure (1762 m) − and can accommodate up to 30 visitors at a time. You can reach the platform from the northeast via two staircases located on the east and west side of the Ravna Vlaška Info Centre. This facilitates an efficient flow of visitor without any crowding. Visitors can stay on the platform for a maximum of five minutes. The park is officially open from April to November because, in the winter months, access is not allowed for safety reasons (i.e., due to, amongst other things, winter

road conditions). The Biokovo Nature Park opens every day at 6 am and closes at 8 pm, while the Biokovo Skywalk opens every day at 8 am and closes at 8 pm depending on the weather conditions. The development of the Biokovo Skywalk is one of a total of 12 activities of the New Adrion − Promoting the Sustainable Use of Natural Heritage project, which has been implemented by the Biokovo Nature Park for quite some time now, and which is funded by the European Regional Development Fund within the framework of the Operational Programme Competitiveness and Cohesion 2014-2020, by the Environmental Protection and Energy Efficiency Fund of the Republic of Croatia, by the Makarska Development Agency (MARA) and the Croatian Mountain Rescue Service (HGSS) as project partners, and is self-financed. The whole project will greatly enrich the offer of the Biokovo Nature Park, while the Biokovo Skywalk itself is foretold a bright romantic future. More specifically, many couples have already said that they’d like to say their I do’s right here, in this adrenaline-fuelled environment, surrounded by the indescribable beauty of nature, amongst the clouds.

MODA FASHION

Loreta Gudelj hrvatska je modna dizajnerica koja djeluje u sferi retro romantike, s naglaskom na kvalitetan tekstil i kolekciju koja se temelji na detaljnom istraživanju teme koju odabere. Basing her collections on detailed research of a theme she chooses, Loreta Gudelj is a Croatian retro romance fashion designer who places emphasis on quality textiles.

eć niz godina Loreta Gudelj, koja je modne gene vjerojatno naslijedila od majke, također poznate dizajnerice Grete Gudelj, stvara ženstvene forme inspirirane retro trendovima, a novu je priču posvetila kraju pedesetih godina prošloga stoljeća. Njezin brend Loré omiljen je među ženama i djevojkama koje žele nešto fino, skladno i romantično.

− Svaku kolekciju radim studiozno, ovisno o temi koju izaberem. U slučaju kolekcije La violetera početna je točka bio istoimeni kultni film koji je obilježio moje djetinjstvo kao najdraži film moje majke, a zajedno smo ga pogledale nemali broj puta. Izabrale smo scene iz filma koje smo htjele reproducirati, kostimografiju koju smo htjele evocirati s novim krojevima te boje

Piše/By _ Dubravka Prpić Znaor Fotografije/Photos _ Doris Fatur

s kojima ćemo raditi − komentira Loreta kolekciju inspiriranu likom Sarite Montiel i mjestom radnje filma, Madridom. Naručuje samo vrhunske materijale iz Italije i to prema definiranoj temi, a dio procesa isključivo je ručni rad. Također, prema planu i priči radi krojeve, a kako je ovdje riječ o retro filmu, kroz forme se referirala na siluete s polovice prošloga stoljeća.

− Nakon krojenja, bitan dio procesa jest i izrada, a sve mora biti iznimno kvalitetno kako bi to bilo očito i na svakoj kampanjskoj fotografiji. Kolekcije su za mene nešto poput vizualnog romana − tumači Loreta. Kolekcija je napravljena od materijala kao što su premium vuna, kašmir, viskoza, svila, taft svila te makrame čipka. Ono što se provlači kroz sve njezine kolekcije jest isticanje ručnoga rada, kojim Loreta podiže kvalitetu konačnog proizvoda na višu razinu. − Odjevni predmeti Loré uvijek su izvedeni od prirodnih materijala bez dodatka sintetskih vlakana s naglaskom na ručnu i etičnu proizvodnju, a specifičnost ove kolekcije jesu i ručno izrađeni remeni od istih materijala − otkriva dizajnerica. Kreacije su snimljene u jednoj od najvažnijih umjetničkih institucija u Hrvatskoj, Hrvatskome glazbenom zavodu. Autentična građevina s kraja devetnaestog stoljeća jedan je od simbola Zagreba te se odlično uklopila u priču o Loretinim kreacijama koje donose pročišćenu retro ženstvenost. Uz ručnu izradu, rad dizajnerice posvećen je i etno referencama, stoga se do sada inspirirala raznim tradicionalnim tehnikama i izradama koje su očite na tekstilu i detaljima. Njezin istančan ukus donosi i sklad boja, stoga ako nisu jednobojne, kreacije Loré otkrivaju raskoš sočnih nijansi. Posvećuje se i detaljima pa se kod nje mogu vidjeti i brojne konstrukcijske intervencije koje silueti daju dinamiku. Loreti Gudelj bitnija je kvaliteta nego kvantiteta jer je odjeća za nju mnogo više od forme

i tekstila. Naime, svaka jakna, haljina, bluza i hlače elementi su priče koju ona donosi s mnogo pažnje i posvećenosti tradiciji izrade i oblikovanja tekstila.

aving probably inherited the gene for fashion from her mother, who is also a famous designer herself, namely Greta Gudelj, Loreta Gudelj has been creating feminine designs inspired by retro fashion trends for many years already. Her latest story is dedicated to the end of the 1950s. Her brand Loré is liked by women and girls who’re looking for something fine, balanced and romantic. − My approach to each collection is thorough and depends on the theme I choose. The starting point for my La Violetera collection was the cult film of the same name because it marked my childhood given that it was my mother’s favourite film. We watched it many times together. We chose scenes from the film that we wanted to reproduce, the costumes from the film that we wanted to evoke with our new cuts and the colours that we wanted to work with − Loreta comments on the collection inspired by the character of Sarita Montiel and the city that the film is set in, Madrid. Making sure that they fit in with a theme defined in advance, she orders only top-quality fabrics from Italy. Also, she does some segments of her designs only by hand. In her latest collection, she made sure that her designs and cuts refer to silhouettes from the 1950s given that La Violetera is a retro film. − After tailoring, an important part of the process is production. Everything has to be of exceptional quality, campaign photos

have to show it. For me, collections are like visual novels − Loreta explains. Loreta’s latest collection is made of fine fabrics, such as premium quality wool, cashmere, viscose, silk, taffeta silk and macramé lace. Raising the quality of Loreta’s final product, work done by hand is a common thread running through all of her collections. − Loré garments are always made of natural fabrics without any synthetic fibres added, and emphasis is always put on manual and ethical production. The specificity of this collection are handmade belts made of the same materials as the garments − the designer reveals. The creations were shot in one of Croatia’s leading art institutions, the Croatian Music Institute. Being one of the symbols of Zagreb, the institute’s historical building from the end of the nineteenth century fit in perfectly with the story of Loreta’s creations exuding refined retro femininity. Besides being handmade, Loreta’s designs also have ethno references − she has been inspired by different traditional techniques and methods, which can be seen on her textiles and in the details. Her refined taste manifests itself in a harmony of colours − if they’re not monochromatic, Loré creations feature a splendour of juicy shades. She also pays much attention to details, so she intervenes in the cuts, which gives the silhouettes dynamics. Quality is more important than quantity to Loreta Gudelj because clothes are much more than just form and textiles. More specifically, every jacket, dress, blouse and pants are elements of a story that she tells with a lot of attention and dedication to the tradition of dressmaking and design.

Povodom 140. godišnjice osnivanja, Muzej za umjetnost i obrt u cijelosti je izmijenio dionicu dizajna u svojem stalnom postavu i predstavio je javnosti na rođendan muzeja. Nažalost, zagrebački potres zatvorio je muzej već mjesec dana nakon otvaranja novog postava. Iako je 8. rujna muzej ponovo otvoren za povremene izložbe, stalni postav dostupan je tek putem fotografija koje objavljujemo u ovom članku. Marking the 140th anniversary of its founding and having presented it to the public on the museum’s anniversary, the Museum of Arts and Crafts completely changed the design section of its permanent exhibition setup. Sadly, the earthquake that recently struck Zagreb closed the museum a month after the opening of the new setup. Although the museum reopened for temporary exhibitions on 8th September, its permanent exhibition setup can at present be viewed only through the photos we’re bringing in this article.

ovodom 140. godišnjice osnivanja, Muzej za umjetnost i obrt u cijelosti je izmijenio dionicu dizajna u svojem stalnom postavu i predstavio je javnosti na rođendan muzeja, 17. veljače 2020. Namjera novog postava, promijenjenoga prvi put nakon što je predstavljen prije 25 godina, bila je uputiti javnost u dostignuća hrvatskog dizajna u posljednjih 70 godina. Novi postav dionice dizajna u kronološkom nizu predstavlja 125 ključnih predmeta iz područja domaćeg industrijskog i grafičkog dizajna nastalih u razdoblju od Drugoga svjetskog rata do danas: najstariji predmet u postavu plakat je Ivana Picelja salon54 iz 1954., a najmlađi

rad, nastao prije četiri godine, zajednička je akcija hrvatskih dizajnera osmišljena u svrhu podrške kurikularnoj reformi. U kružnom toku (preciznije, spiralnom jer postav dizajna završava na odmorištu stubišta prema trećem katu muzeja), u svojevrsnom dijalogu suprotstavljaju se, uspoređuju i nadograđuju različiti pristupi dizajnu, proizvodnji i korištenju. Dizajneri i dizajnerski objekti ne postoje u vakuumu, već ih vežu vidljive i manje vidljive spone, linije suradnji i utjecaja. Stoga je, unatoč pretpostavljenoj linearnosti kronološkog pristupa, bilo važno postići nesmetanu komunikaciju među pojedinim dionicama (dekadama) i dočarati prožimanje utjecaja, svjesnih i nesvjesnih inspiracija

Tako je, da spomenemo samo neke, poznati motiv Chromosova ličioca (Milan Vulpe, 1954.) reinterpretiran pedeset godina kasnije na naslovnici novina Galerije Nova (Dejan Kršić, 2006.), odjeci namještaja od kovanog željeza (Vjenceslav Richter, Ferdo Rosić, Slava Antoljak, 1957. − 1959.) jasno se prepoznaju u suvremenim radovima Prostorije (naslonjač Polygon, Numen, 2017.; naslonjač Strain, Simon Morasi Piperčić, 2017.) i Grupe (podna svjetiljka Model 1, 2010.), a Bućanova fantazmagorija s plakata Žar ptica/ Petruška (1983.) u plakatu Hrvoja Živčića i Darija Devića za tipografiju Nikole Đureka iz 2011. godine. Kada se ponovo otvori stalni postav, Muzej za umjetnost i obrt bit će jedino mjesto (na svijetu!) gdje će publika imati

priliku pobliže se upoznati s poviješću hrvatskog dizajna u ovom opsegu. Jedan od najvažnijih ciljeva novoga postava stoga je bio predstaviti javnosti koliko je širok raspon dizajnerskih zadataka i interesa te koliko je snažan utjecaj dizajna na oblikovanje svakodnevice prosječnoga hrvatskog građanina. Predmeti izloženi u dionici dizajna često su još uvijek prisutni u našim domovima. Za razliku od uobičajenog muzejskog izloška, glavna vrijednost takvih masovno proizvedenih predmeta ne leži u njihovoj nedostupnosti. Dapače, jedan od razloga za njihovo uključivanje u postav upravo je njihova sveprisutnost (bilo stvarna, bilo memorijska). Stoga se u postavu ravnopravno nalaze drvena složiva igračka (Ante Jakić, prva polovica 1960-ih), primjerak nedavno ugašenog dvotjednika Zarez (Ira Payer,

U suvremenom svijetu dizajn je svuda oko nas. Upravo je zato važno razumjeti kako i zašto nastaju predmeti koju oblikuju naše živote. Ovaj je postav korak prema razumijevanju discipline koja ima snažan utjecaj na našu svakodnevicu, koja utječe na društvo i na koju društvo utječe.

Changed for the first time after it was first presented 25 years ago, the new exhibition setup of the design section intended to present the achievements of Croatian design in the last 70 years. The new setup of the design section displays in chronological order 125 key Croatian industrial and graphic design items created in the period between World War II and the present day: the oldest item displayed is Ivan Picelj’s salon54 poster from 1954, and the youngest item is, created four years ago, a joint action by Croatian designers designed to support Croatia’s curriculum reform.

When its permanent exhibition setup reopens, the Museum of Arts and Crafts will be the only place (in the world!) where the public will have the opportunity to get acquainted with the history of Croatian design in such a wide scope. One of the most important goals of the new exhibition setup was to present to the public just how wide the range of design tasks and interests is and just how strong the influence of design is on shaping the everyday life of an average Croatian citizen. The items displayed in the design section often still have a place in our homes. Unlike standard museum exhibits, the primary value of such mass-produced objects does not lie in their unavailability. Indeed, one of the reasons why the Museum of Arts and Crafts included them in its setup

is precisely their omnipresence (either real or in memory). The exhibition, accordingly, gives equal attention to a folding wooden toy (Ante Jakić, first half of the 1960s), a copy of the recently closed biweekly Zarez (Ira Payer, Tina Ivezić, 2012), a mechanical calculator (Davor Grünwald, 1969), Jadran chairs from the student canteen (Mladen and Marijan Orešić, 1984) and the Aerotherm electric heater (Božidar Lapaine, 1986). In today’s world, design is all around us. This is exactly why it’s important to understand how and why the items and objects that shape our lives are created. This setup is a step towards understanding a discipline that has a strong impact on our daily lives, that affects society and that is affected by society.

dialogue of sorts, different approaches to design, production and use are contrasted, compared and superseded. Designers and design items do not exist in a vacuum, but are bound by visible and less visible ties, collaborations and influences. In turn and despite the assumed linearity of the chronological approach to the setup, it was important to achieve an unhindered communication flow between individual sections (decades) and to evoke the interlacement of influences and inspirations drawn consciously and unconsciously from previous periods and works. Accordingly, to name just a few, the famous motif of the Chromos painter (Milan Vulpe, 1954) was reinterpreted fifty years later on the cover of the Nova Gallery newspaper (Dejan Kršić, 2006), echoes of wrought iron furniture (Vjenceslav Richter, Ferdo Rosić, Slava Antoljak, 1957-1959) are clearly recognisable in the contemporary works of Prostoria (the Polygon chair by Numen, 2017; the Strain chair by Simon Morasi Piperčić, 2017) and Grupa (the Model 1 floor lamp, 2010), and Bućan’s phantasmagoria from the Žar ptica/Petruška (1983) poster in a poster by Hrvoje Živčić and Dario Dević for Nikola Đurek’s typeface from 2011. 02

ŽIVOT GRADA CITY LIFE

Boje i mirisi zagrebačke jeseni ZAGREB’S AUTUMN COLOURS AND SCENTS

Proljetno je buđenje inspirativno, ljetnu bezbrižnost svi volimo, no jesen u Zagrebu sasvim je posebna. Teško je reći je li za to više zaslužna ljepota jesenskog ruha ili nevidljiva energija koja struji gradom.

84 _ CROATIA AIRLINE 3/2020

Tekst/Text: Turistička zajednica grada Zagreba / Zagreb Tourist Board

Spring awakening is inspiring, we all love the laid-backness that summer brings, yet autumn in Zagreb is a very special season. It’s difficult to say which is more responsible for this − the charm of the colours of autumn draping the city or an invisible energy flowing across the city.

rošećite perivojima Donjega grada i gledajte kako jarko ljetno zelenilo postupno prepušta mjesto diskretnim nijansama žute, narančaste i crvene. Sunce se i dalje probija kroz krošnje, grije gradski asfalt i travnjake, ali osjetno blaže. Dočekajte zalazak na Strossmayerovu šetalištu i vidjet ćete divan prizor, no manje razmetljiv nego prije samo mjesec ili dva. Zagrepčani su se

vratili s odmora, opušteni, poletni i željni druženja. Ulice i trgovi ponovno oživljavaju, pune se pozitivnim vibracijama − u zraku se osjeća kolektivna želja da se preostalo vrijeme prije zimske stanke što bolje iskoristi. Društveni život prostire se na svježem zraku, od sjedenja po terasama, ležernih večernjih šetnji, pa do izleta i sportskih aktivnosti. Razna kulturna događanja na

otvorenome s razlogom biraju upravo dane u rujnu i listopadu. Toplo jesensko vrijeme kao stvoreno je za planinarenje po Sljemenu, otkrivanje gradskih park-šuma kao što su Grmoščica ili Dotrščina, bicikliranje po Jarunu i nasipu, ribolov na jezerima uz rijeku Savu. U šumama po Medvednici i okolnim gorjima uvijek je otvoren poziv na berbu gljiva i kestena, a tu su i festivali posvećeni jesenskim plodovima u slikovitim mjestima zagrebačke okolice. Posebnost nekih krajeva jesu

best of the remaining time before the winter break. Zagreb’s social life unfolds in the open, people sitting on cafe and restaurant terraces, taking leisurely evening walks, going on short trips and doing sports activities. Various open-air culture-related events choose the days of September and October, and with good reason. Autumn’s warm weather is perfect for hiking on Sljeme Mountain, discovering city forest parks, such as Grmoščica or Dotrščina, cycling around Jarun Lake and the Sava River embankment, or fishing on the lakes spread along the Sava River. You’re always welcome to go mushroom and chestnut

bučijade, koje predstavljaju cijeli spektar proizvoda i specijaliteta od ove zdrave namirnice. U ruralnim predjelima većina radova u polju ionako je gotova, a to treba prikladno proslaviti. Možda još nije kasno ni za sudjelovanje u berbi grožđa u brojnim vinogradima na trima vinskim cestama oko Zagreba. A nakon toga slijede tradicionalne vinske svečanosti, koje će kulminirati na Martinje. Mlado vino, uz jabuke, kruške, dunje i vlažno lišće pod nogama, nezaobilazni je dio jesenske mirisne palete, siguran znak smjene godišnjih doba. U gradu je na prvome mjestu ipak miris prvih pečenih kestena s uličnih štandova. Pustite da vas izmami van, pogledom ispratite ptice koje u daljini lete prema jugu i prepustite se romantici zagrebačke jeseni.

picking in the forests of Medvednica and the surrounding mountains, with many picturesque townlets in the immediate vicinity of Zagreb holding festivals dedicated to autumn fruits. Presenting a wide range of products and specialities made from this healthy food, squash and pumpkin festivals called bučijade are particularly interesting in some regions. In rural areas, most of the work in the fields is already done by autumn anyway, and that’s to be properly celebrated. It may not be too late to partake in grape harvesting in the many vineyards along the three wine routes around Zagreb. Harvesting is followed by traditional wine festivities, which culminate on the Feast of St. Martin (when new wine is traditionally and ritually christened given that St. Martin is worshiped around Europe as the patron saint of winemakers). New wine − coupled with apples, pears, quinces and moist leaves underfoot − is an unavoidable part of autumn’s fragrant palette, a sure sign of the changing of the seasons. Zagreb’s city streets are, on the other hand, filled with the smell of autumn’s first roasted chestnuts coming from street stalls. Let it lure you out as you watch the birds fly south in the distance and indulge in the romance of Zagreb’s autumn.

f you stroll through the parks of Zagreb’s Lower Town, you’ll notice the summer’s bright greenery gradually give way to discreet shades of yellow, orange and red. Although noticeably milder, the sun’s still breaking through the canopy heating the asphalt and lawns. Should you greet the sunset on the Upper Town’s Strossmayer Promenade, you’ll be welcomed by a sight which is beautiful yet less ostentatious than just a month or two ago. Zagrebians, the residents of Zagreb, have just returned from their summer holidays, relaxed, energetic and eager to socialise. The streets and squares come to life again, filled with positive vibes − the air seems to be filled with the people’s collective desire to make the

Od 17. rujna do 3. listopada u Zagrebu se održava međunarodni trijenale KONTEJNERA koji istražuje veze umjetnosti i znanosti: Touch Me Festival. U posljednjih pet izdanja od 2005. bavio se temama tamne materije, vremena, užitka, zlouporabe inteligencije i energije. Okupljajući poznate umjetnike, filozofe, kustose i teoretičare, ove je godine Touch Me veći nego ikad! Uz program koji istražuje nove oblike suživota između živih bića, prirode i tehnologije, dio festivala čine i programi EMAP − European Media Art Platform i Re-Imagine Europe. Na grupnoj izložbi Touch Me koju autorski potpisuju kustosi Jurij Krpan (SI), Klara Petrović (HR) i Luja Šimunović (HR) predstavljaju se renomirani međunarodni umjetnici koji djeluju na razmeđi umjetnosti, znanosti i tehnologije. U razmišljanju o onome što se događa kad se istinski riješimo opozicija priroda − kultura, živo − neživo, čovjek − nečovjek, ističu se Koen Vanmechelen (BE), Maja Smrekar (SI), Ionat Zurr i Oron Catts (AU), Thomas Thwaites (UK) i Ai Hasegawa (JP) kao umjetnici koji upravo to istražuju. Tereza Teklić (HR) i Olga Majcen Linn (HR) kustosice su grupne izložbe EMAP-a − mreže europskih kulturnih institucija i medijskih umjetničkih organizacija koje godišnje dodjeljuju potpore za produk-

ciju europskim medijskim umjetnicima. Ova izložba pruža izbor produkcija od 2018. do danas, a riječ je o radovima progresivnih, interdisciplinarnih umjetnika poput Robertine Šebjanič (SI) i Gjina Šutića (HR), Quimere Rose (ES/AR/FR) i umjetničkog dvojca uh513 koji čine María Castellanos i Alberto Valverde (ES). Re-Imagine Europe, međunarodni projekt i mreža kulturnih institucija iz cijele Europe koja se bavi društvenim i političkim izazovima s kojima se danas suočavamo, donosi bogat program performansa čija je kustosica Davorka Begović (HR). Kali Malone (SAD), Marco Donnarumma (IT), Anthea Caddy (AU) i drugi umjetnici su koji djeluju u sferi eksperimentalne glazbe i srodnih umjetničkih oblika, istraživanja zvuka, performansa i pokreta. Program izložbi, performansa, predavanja, razgovora s umjetnicima, filma i radionica Touch Me Festivala održava se u centru Zagreba. Smješten iza Tehničkog muzeja Nikole Tesle, veliki industrijski prostor muzeja HALA V pretvoren je u mjesto koje okuplja umjetničke i znanstvene stručnjake, kao i ljubitelje kulture i poklonike znanosti svih uzrasta.

11. Međunarodni festival fotografije Organ Vida − Neodlučne slike The Organ Vida International Photography Festival − Hesitant Images 01

2. rujna − 4. studenog 2020. Muzej suvremene umjetnosti, Galerija Miroslav Kraljević, Galerija Karas, Galerija Zvonimir Organ Vida međunarodni je bijenalni festival fotografije koji se etablirao kao najznačajniji festival ove vrste u jugoistočnoj Europi. Organ Vida jedanaesti put okuplja međunarodne vizualne umjetnike u prostoru Muzeja suvremene umjetnosti u Zagrebu. Jedanaesto izdanje festivala pod naslovom Neodlučne slike stavlja naglasak na radove koji problematiziraju i proširuju poimanje vizualne reprezentacije. Neodlučnost iz naslova proizlazi iz specifičnog vida presijecanja fikcije i fak-

cije. Takve su slike istodobno eksplicitno lažne, nestvarne, falsificirane i autentične, a zapravo pokazuju napetosti i kontradikcije suvremene digitalne kulture. U prostoru Muzeja suvremene umjetnosti predstavit će se deset međunarodnih umjetnika odabranih putem javnog poziva: Liza Ambrossio, Martha Frieda Friedel, Marko Gutić Mižimakov, Zhao Qian, Oskar Schmidt, Samar Al Summary, Indre Urbonaite, Emilio Vavarella, Shelli Weiler i Alba Zari. Festivalski program uključuje i tri izložbe/ instalacije specifične za mjesto izlaganja pozvanih međunarodnih umjetnika, Meriem Bennani, Filipa Custica i Victorije Sin. Uz navedene izložbe festivalski program

nadopunjuje niz manjih izložbi u Galeriji Miroslav Kraljević (Deni Horvatić), Galeriji Karas (Katarina Juričić) i Galeriji Zvonimir (Verena Blok, Stefanie Zofia Schulz i Marvin Bonheur). 2nd September − 4th November 2020 Museum of Contemporary Art, Miroslav Kraljević Gallery, Karas Gallery, Zvonimir Gallery Bringing together international visual artists at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb, the Organ Vida is an international bennial photography festival that has established itself as a leading festival of its kind in Southeast Europe.

eleventh edition of the festival called Hesitant Images centres on works that deal with and expand the notion of visual representation. The idea of hesitancy in the title arises from a specific overlap between fiction and fact. Presenting the tensions and contradictions of today’s digital culture, such images are explicitly false, unreal, falsified yet authentic all at the same time. Ten international artists selected through a public call are presenting their work at the Museum of Contemporary Art − namely, Liza Ambrossio, Martha Frieda Friedel, Marko Gutić Mižimakov, Zhao Qian, Oskar Schmidt, Samar Al Summary, Indrè Urbonaitè, Emilio Vavarella, Shelli Weiler and Alba Zari. The festival’s programme also includes three site-specific exhibitions/installations by three invited international artists − namely, Meriem Bennani, Filip Custic and Victoria Sin − and is complemented by a series of smaller exhibitions held at the Miroslav Kraljević Gallery (Deni Horvatić), the Karas Gallery (Katarina Juričić) and the Zvonimir Gallery (Verena Blok, Stefanie Zofia Schulz and Marvin Bonheur).

treba pridodati i podruËja pod strogom zaπtitom prirode, rezervate, spomenike prirode, parkove prirode. Zbog svih njih Hrvatsku mnogi smatraju jednim od najljepπih europskih vrtova. National parks Croatia has eight national parks, four of which are located in the mountain region (Paklenica, Plitvice Lakes, Risnjak and Northern Velebit), and four in the coastal region (Brijuni, Kornati, Krka and Mljet). Besides these, certain areas under strict nature protection ∑ reserves, natural monuments and natural parks ∑ should be mentioned as a natural heritage of special value. They have all contributed to Croatia’s being considered one of the most beautiful gardens of Europe. Proπlost za sadaπnjost Hrvatska obiluje kulturno-povijesnim spomenicima iz svih razdoblja zbog burnih povijesnih zbivanja i prepletanja utjecaja razliËitih kultura. Njezinu obalu karakteriziraju utjecaji mediteranske kulture, mnogi antiËki spomenici, spomenici iz rimskog razdoblja i ranoga srednjeg vijeka, romaniËko-sakralna baπtina te niz oËuvanih karakteristiËnih mediteranskih urbanih cjelina.

Nacionalni park PlitviËka jezera, najljepπi i najpoznatiji hrvatski nacionalni park, takoer je dio Unescove Svjetske baπtine. A past for the present Croatia is rich in cultural and historical monuments from all eras, due to the turbulent events of history and the interlacing of influences of different cultures. Its coast is cha-

racterized by the influences of Mediterranean culture, numerous ancient remains, monuments of the Roman era and early Middle Ages, a Romanesque church heritage and a number of distinctive Mediterranean urban entities that have been preserved. Inland Croatia is a part of the Central European cultural circle and is distinguished by numerous prehistoric findings of world significance, by old towns, fortresses and castles dating from the late Middle Ages, and cultural monuments and architecture from the Baroque era. Three Croatian cities and two monumental com-plexes have the status of monuments of world cultural heritage accorded by UNESCO. These are the Late Antique Palace of Diocletian, remodeled through the centuries into the medieval city of Split, the cities of Dubrovnik and Trogir, the Basilica of Euphrasius in PoreË and the Cathedral of St. Jacob in ©ibenik. The national park of the Plitvice Lakes, Croatia’s most beautiful and celebrated national park, is also a part of UNESCO’s world heritage. Hrvatska - turistiËki hit na Sredozemlju Hrvatska je posljednjih godina − ocjenjuju meunarodni turistiËki znalci i statistiËari − hit-odrediπte na Sredozemlju. Hrvatska je blizu ne samo zbog svoga geografskog smještaja nego i zbog mreæe zraËnih luka i kvalitetnih usluga nacionalnog avioprijevoznika Croatia Airlinesa te drugih zraËnih prijevoznika. I zbog svoje mreæe autocesta i poluautocesta Hrvatska je bliæa nego ikad. Ako ste pak odabrali odmor na jednome od mnogih hrvatskih otoka, prijevoz trajektom ili hidrogliserom s kopna trajat Êe − i kad su posrijedi oni najudaljeniji − kraÊe od 2 sata. Croatia - a Mediterranean tourism success Croatia has been a hit destination in the Mediterranean in the past few years, say statisticians and international experts in tourism. Croatia is close not only because of its geographic position, but also because of its network of airports and the top quality services provided by Croatia Airlines, its

national carrier, as well as other airliners. Also, due to its network of highways and semi-motorways, Croatia is closer than ever. If you have decided to spend your vacation on any one of the numerous islands in Croatia, even the most distant ones, it will take less than 2 hours by ferry or hydrofoil from the mainland.

ZRA NA LUKA SPLIT SPLIT AIRPORT

PROMET SE VRAĆA TRAFFIC’S BACK Zračna luka Split cijelo je vrijeme, pa i tijekom vrhunca pandemije, bila u kontaktu s ključnim korisnicima usluga. Split Airport has been in contact with key service users throughout the epidemic, including its peak. 100 _ CROATIA AIRLINES 3/2020

rhunac turističke sezone u Zračnoj luci Split nadmašuje skromna predviđanja nakon pojave pandemije. Tako je u srpnju ostvaren promet od nešto više od 170 tisuća putnika, dok se u kolovozu očekuje približno 270 tisuća. U prvom tjednu kolovoza ostvareno je 430 letova, od čega tri četvrtine čine komercijalni letovi, a jednu četvrtinu letovi poslovne i generalne avijacije. Zračna luka Split u ovoj je sezoni ponudila tržištu povezanost s približno 60 destinacija koju ostvaruje 35 avioprijevoznika. Provedbom svih epidemioloških mjera koje propisuju nacionalni i europski regulatori te posljedično ponovnim stjeca-

his year’s peak tourist season at Split Airport has exceeded the modest expectations following the pandemic. Accordingly, in July slightly more than 170 thousand passengers passed through the airport, while in August approximately 270 thousand passengers are expected. In the first week of August, 430 flights were operated, three quarters of which were commercial flights and one quarter were business and general aviation flights. This season, Split Airport has offered flights to approximately 60 destinations operated by 35 airlines. The implementation of all epidemiological measures taken by both national and

European regulators and the consequent regaining of passenger trust in air transport have resulted in aircraft occupancy rates improving significantly in the second part of the season. This extremely specific season has shown that a coexistence with pandemics is sustainable if all stakeholders in the transport system adhere to appropriate epidemiological measures. Also, although a vulnerable economic activity, tourism has in these challenging times shown resilience and endurance, confirming that Croatia is indeed a desirable destination. All these circumstances are reason enough for optimism and have laid the groundwork for the tourist seasons ahead.

njem povjerenja putnika u zračni prijevoz znatno se poboljšao faktor popunjenosti zrakoplova u drugom dijelu sezone. Ova iznimno specifična sezona pokazala je da je suživot s pandemijom itekako održiv ako se svi dionici u prometnom sustavu pridržavaju odgovarajućih epidemioloških mjera. Jednako tako, turizam kao osjetljiva gospodarska djelatnost pokazao je svojevrsnu otpornost i izdržljivost u ovim izazovnim vremenima te je ponovno potvrđena činjenica da je Republika Hrvatska itekako poželjna destinacija. Sve ove okolnosti razlog su za optimizam i čine dobar zalog za turističke sezone koje su pred nama.

NAŠI ZAPOSLENICI OUR EMPLOYEES

Naši putnici za nas su uvijek bili i ostat će prioritet! Our passengers have always been and remain a priority for us! Fotografije/Photos _ Šime Lugarov Piše/By _ Ana Ćulumović Šoštarić

Putnici su za nas uvijek na prvome mjestu, a osobito u ovo zahtjevno vrijeme koronavirusa, kad im nastojimo pružiti i dodatnu brigu i pažnju. Pomoć koju im pružamo odnosi se na različite oblike naših poslova i različite dijelove naše kompanije. Pritom poštujemo sve procedure kako bismo ih maksimalno zaštitili, o čemu svjedoče naši zaposlenici. Passengers always come first with us, particularly in today’s challenging times caused by the coronavirus pandemic, when we look to provide our passengers with extra care and attention. The help we provide to our passengers relates to different aspects of our business operations and different parts of our company. In doing so, we respect all procedures, and this with a view to protecting our passengers as much as possible, as witnessed below by our employees.

ROBERT KRULJAC Voditelj zemaljskih usluga i voditelj Kriznog stožera Ground Handling Manager and Crisis Manager U avioindustriji, u svakom trenutku, trebamo biti spremni na krize. No ipak, o situaciji poput ove s koronavirusom nismo mogli ni sanjati. Ova kriza za sve nas predstavlja veliki ispit znanja, a mi se doista trudimo sve svoje zadatke obaviti s najvišim ocjenama. S jednakom brigom prema našim putnicima, zaposlenicima i ostalim ciljnim skupinama donosimo potrebne odluke, spremno dočekujući svaki novi dan. Croatia Airlines dijeli sudbinu cjelokupne zrakoplovne industrije koja se zbog pandemije koronavirusa suočila s najdubljom krizom u svojoj povijesti. U cilju zaštite zdravlja putnika i osoblja kompanija nastavlja s provođenjem mnogih već implementiranih mjera. Članovi kabinske posade koji dolaze u izravan kontakt s putnicima i zemaljskim osobljem opremljeni su odgovarajućim zaštitnim sredstvima, zrakoplovi se svakodnevno dezinficiraju, prilikom redovitog čišćenja putničke kabine provode se pojačane higijenske mjere, a osoblju su na raspolaganju dezinfekcijska sredstva. Naši su zrakoplovi opremljeni visokokvalitetnim filterima za pročišćavanje zraka u putničkoj kabini, koji se uz konstantan protok dovodi iz atmosfere, a zrak u putničkom prostoru cirkulira vertikalno tako da je kvaliteta zraka sukladno provedenim istraživanjima i analizama međunarodnih zdravstvenih tijela jednaka kvaliteti zraka u operacijskim salama u bolnicama. Vjerujem kako vaša putovanja zrakoplovima Croatia Airlinesa mogu biti sigurna i ugodna i u vrijeme krize. In the aviation industry, we must be prepared for crises at all times. Yet, never in our wildest dreams could we have come up with a situation such as this one. This crisis has put our knowledge to the test, and we always give all our tasks our best shot. Ready for everything every single day, we make the necessary decisions with equal care for our passengers, employees and other target groups. Croatia Airlines has suffered the fate of the aviation industry as a whole, which has had to face the deepest crisis in its history due to the coronavirus pandemic.

108 _ CROATIA AIRLINES 3/2020

Looking to protect the health of our passengers and staff, the company continues to implement the many measures already implemented. Cabin crew members who come into direct contact with passengers and ground crew are outfitted with appropriate personal protective equipment, our aircraft are disinfected daily, enhanced hygiene measures are taken during the routine cleaning of cabins, with various disinfectants available to cabin crew members. Our aircraft are equipped with high-quality cabin air purifier filters − fresh air is continuously introduced from the atmosphere, with the air in the passenger cabin circulating vertically. This means that the air quality in our passenger cabins equals the air quality in hospital operating theatres, which is the conclusion of research and analysis conducted by international health authorities. I believe that your flights aboard Croatia Airlines aircraft can be safe and comfortable even in times of crises such as this one.

PETRA NUELATI Djelatnica Kontakt centra A Contact Centre employee U ovom vrlo zahtjevnom razdoblju svim našim putnicima nastojimo izaći ususret i ponuditi im odgovore na njihova pitanja vezana uz letove te im osigurati sve potrebne informacije. Otvorili smo i dodatne telefonske linije i angažirali dodatno osoblje kako bismo na vrijeme odgovorili našim dragim putnicima. In these challenging times we strive to meet the needs of all our passengers, offer them answers to their questions concerning their flights and provide them with all the necessary information. We’ve also had additional phone lines installed and hired additional staff to be able to respond in time to our dear passengers.

TOMISLAV DOLOVSKI Kapetan / A captain Danas s još više entuzijazma letimo i povezujemo Hrvatsku s ostatkom svijeta. Poseban izazov bili su nam humanitarni letovi u kojima smo kao nacionalni avioprijevoznik rado sudjelovali. Bila je to najvažnija utakmica 21. stoljeća. Podsjetio bih kako je u ovom iznimno zahtjevnom razdoblju epidemiološke krize naša kompanija u smanjenom opsegu nastavila s radom. I tijekom ove jeseni Croatia Airlines planira povezivati Zagreb, Split i Dubrovnik s mnogim europskim odredištima te povezivati hrvatske gradove, pridržavajući se dosljedno svih preporučenih mjera zaštite putnika i posade. Naša je kompanija i u ovim kriznim vremenima potvrdila svoju stratešku ulogu u hrvatskoj prometnoj infrastrukturi jer konstantno pridonosi održavanju prometne povezanosti odnosno hrvatskom turizmu i gospodarstvu u cijelosti. Today, we fly and connect Croatia with the rest of the world with even greater enthusiasm. Crisis-related flights have been a special challenge, which we, as Croatia’s flag carrier airline, have gladly participated in. It was the most important game of the 21st century. I’d like to remind you all that, in these extremely challenging times of the epidemic, our company has continued to operate a reduced number of flights. During this autumn, Croatia Airlines is planning to continue connecting Zagreb, Split and Dubrovnik with many European destinations, and to continue interconnecting Croatian cities, while consistently adhering to all the recommended passenger and crew health protection measures. Even during these times of crisis, our company has confirmed its strategic role in Croatia’s transport infrastructure given that it continually contributes to maintaining transport connectivity, i.e. Croatia’s tourism and economy as a whole.

JELENA PECIKOZIĆ Domaćica zrakoplova A flight attendant Naša kompanija prati i implementira sve preporuke Europske agencije za sigurnost zračnog prometa (EASA), koje uključuju primjenu zaštitne opreme za djelatnike, putnike, dezinfekciju zrakoplova i socijalnu distancu u kabini zrakoplova. Također od svibnja ove godine na svim našim letovima obavezno je korištenje zaštitnih maski ili pokrivala za lice. Nama je neobično imati manje letova i putnika, no odgovornim ponašanjem svih nas vjerujemo da ćemo vrlo brzo opet raširiti krila Croatia Airlinesa. Our company’s been monitoring and implementing all the recommendations made by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), including the use of protective face masks or face covers by both our employees and passengers − which is mandatory on all our flights as of May this year − aircraft disinfection and social distancing measures in the cabin. Having fewer flights and passengers is very unusual for us, but if we all behave responsibly, we believe that we’ll soon spread the wings of Croatia Airlines again.

VJEKOSLAV PINJUŠIĆ Aviomehaničar An aeromechanic U Croatia Airlinesu na prvom je mjestu sigurnost u svim dijelovima poslovanja i sa sigurnošću nema kompromisa. Dezinfekcija, provjera filtera, dodatne mjere zaštite za naše putnike i zaposlenike danas su aktivnosti koje s mnogo odgovornosti svakodnevno obavljamo. Štitimo tako naše i zdravlje naših putnika, stavljajući javnozdravstveni interes na prvo mjesto. At Croatia Airlines, safety comes first in all parts of our business operations. There’s no compromise with safety. Disinfection, filter checks, implementing additional protective measures for our passengers and employees are tasks that we’ve been performing very responsibly every day. This is how we’ve protected our health and that of our passengers, and this is how public health interest has come first.

S nama putujete sigurno You travel safely with us Piše/By _ Ana Ćulumović Šoštarić

Zahvaćeni globalnom krizom prouzročenom virusom COVID-19 proteklih smo mjeseci uveli brojne mjere kako bismo zaštitili svoje putnike i osoblje jer naš je prioritet sigurnost putnika. Affected by the global crisis caused by the COVID-19 virus, we’ve introduced a number of measures in recent months to protect our passengers and employees because safety is our priority.

zaposlenika tvrtke zadržala na najvišoj razini. I u ovim izvanrednim okolnostima prioritet su nam putnici, a posebno oni koji su već kupili karte za domaće i međunarodne letove. Zbog velikog broja telefonskih poziva u našem Kontakt centru otvorili smo dodatnu liniju kako bismo svim putnicima u najkraćem roku izašli u susret te kako bi se regulirala njihova prava. Podsjećamo, od 4. svibnja ove godine na svim našim letovima obvezno je korištenje zaštitnih maski ili pokrivala za lice. Slijedeći odluke i upute

skladu s novonastalom situacijom vezanom uz pandemiju koronavirusa, Croatia Airlines kao nacionalni avioprijevoznik kontinuirano prilagođuje poslovne aktivnosti aktualnom epidemiološkom stanju u Hrvatskoj i inozemstvu te preporukama hrvatskih i svjetskih javnozdravstvenih vlasti. Važno je naglasiti kako naš Ured za upravljanje kriznim situacijama i izvanrednim događajima također aktivno prati razvoj situacije te kontinuirano planira i poduzima sve potrebne mjere kako bi se zdravstvena sigurnost putnika, članova posade zrakoplova i svih drugih

javnozdravstvenih i civilnih zrakoplovnih vlasti, ovu zaštitnu mjeru kompanija je preventivno donijela kako bi se smanjio potencijalni rizik prenošenja koronavirusa tijekom leta. U skladu s novom mjerom, putnici na let trebaju doći sa zaštitnim maskama ili pokrivalima za lice te ih koristiti tijekom cijelog boravka u putničkoj kabini zrakoplova. U cilju zaštite zdravlja putnika i osoblja kompanija nastavlja i s provođenjem mnogih drugih već implementiranih mjera. Članovi kabinske posade koji dolaze u izravan kontakt s putnicima i zemaljskim osobljem opremljeni su odgovarajućim zaštitnim sredstvima, zrakoplovi se svakodnevno dezinficiraju, prilikom redovitog čišćenja putničke kabine provode se pojačane higijenske mjere, a osoblju su na raspolaganju različita dezinfekcijska sredstva. Naši su zrakoplovi opremljeni visokokvalitetnim filterima za pročišćavanje zraka u putničkoj kabini, koji se uz konstantan protok dovodi iz atmosfere, a zrak u putničkom prostoru cirkulira vertikalno tako da je kvaliteta zraka sukladno provedenim istraživanjima i analizama međunarodnih zdravstvenih tijela jednaka kvaliteti zraka u operacijskim salama u bolnicama. Ovisno o popunjenosti zrakoplova kabinsko osoblje razmjestit će putnike na način da među njima postoji najveći mogući razmak, osim za članove obitelji kod kojih se neće inzistirati na održavanju razmaka. Zadnji red u zrakoplovu ostaje prazan kako bi se na taj način osiguralo mjesto za slučaj da se kod nekog od putnika za vrijeme trajanja leta pojave simptomi koji bi mogli upućivati na COVID-19.

U svim segmentima našeg poslovanja naglasak je stavljen na sigurnost.

A. Grubelić

Emphasis is placed on safety in all segments of our business operations.

Putnicima preporučujemo da zbog trenutnih ograničenja u zračnim lukama i u zrakoplovu kad god je to moguće putuju bez dodatne ručne prtljage te da prtljagu predaju na šalterima za registraciju putnika. Croatia Airlines kao društveno odgovorna kompanija u ovim izvanrednim okolnostima uzrokovanim višom silom putnicima nudi fleksibilne uvjete putovanja, a sve se informacije transparentno i ažurno objavljuju na našim internetskim stranicama www.croatiaairlines.hr. Dragi putnici, pridržavajući se svih navedenih mjera, zajedno možemo raširiti krila i osigurati da naša putovanja ostanu sigurna i ugodna čak i u vrijeme krize.

roatia Airlines, Croatia’s flag carrier airline, has continuously been adapting its business activities to the current epidemiological situation in Croatia and abroad, and implementing the recommendations made by the competent Croatian public health and world health authorities. It’s important to highlight that our Crisis and Emergency Management Office has also actively been monitoring the development of the situation, and has continuously been planning and taking all necessary measures to ensure the health and safety

of passengers, cabin crew members and all other company employees. Even in these extraordinary circumstances, our passengers are our priority, especially those who’ve already bought air tickets for domestic and international flights. Due to an increase in the number of telephone calls and inquiries that our Contact Centre has to handle, we’ve had an additional phone line installed to be able to deal with passenger inquiries as quickly as possible, and to help them regulate and exercise their rights. We remind you that, as of 4th May this year, the use of protective masks or face covers is mandatory on all our flights. Following the decisions and recommendations made by public health and civil aviation authorities, this protective and preventive measure was taken by the company to minimise the potential risk of in-flight coronavirus transmission. This new measure requires that passengers board their flight wearing a protective mask or face cover, and that they have them on throughout their entire stay in the cabin of the aircraft. Aiming to protect the health of our passengers and employees, the company continues to implement measures already implemented at an earlier date. Cabin crew

members who come into direct contact with passengers and ground crew are outfitted with appropriate protection, our aircraft are disinfected daily, enhanced hygiene measures are taken during the routine cleaning of cabins, with various disinfectants available to cabin crew members. Our aircraft are equipped with high-quality cabin air purifier filters ∑ fresh air is continuously introduced from the atmosphere, with the air in the passenger cabin circulating vertically. This means that the air quality in our passenger cabins equals the air quality in hospital operating theatres, which is the conclusion of research and analysis conducted by international health authorities. Depending on aircraft occupancy, our cabin crew makes sure that as great a distance as possible is maintained between passengers during seating allocation, except for family members who aren’t required to maintain a distance between themselves. The back row of our aircraft remains empty ∑ back-row seats are kept empty for passengers who may develop COVID-19 symptoms during flights. Due to current restrictions at airports and on board aircraft, passengers are advised to travel without additional hand luggage whenever possible and to check in their luggage at check-in counters. Even in these extraordinary circumstances that we couldn’t have any influence over, as a socially responsible company, Croatia Airlines is offering its passengers flexible travel arrangements, with all relevant information available at and regularly updated on our website www.croatiaairlines.com.
