Held as part of this year\u2019s Croatian Book Month<\/a>, the programme was prepared as one of the events of the Library\u2019s 2025 programme promoting and popularising Croatian cultural heritage which it preserves as part of\u00a0CROATICA<\/a>, Croatia\u2019s national library collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book as a medium of expression in visual art<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In her lecture, Professor at the Zagreb Academy of Fine Arts<\/a> Tanja Dabo presented the specific features of books created primarily as works of visual art, explaining the differences between the artist\u2019s book, art book, book art and similar concepts. Providing an overview of the history of these artistic forms, she particularly emphasised the value of artists\u2019 books created by female artists which were neglected for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme participants learned more about the ideas that prompted the artists to reach for the book as the medium of artistic expression, as well as about all the ways in which they try to engage the viewers and readers in a direct and dynamic interaction with all the segments of their works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
