KIPAR ALEKSANDAR RUKAVINA

Aleksandar Rukavina Gallery, Brtonigla, 25.06.-02.07.2022. In 1989 the Aleksandar Rukavina Memorial Gallery was built in Brtonigla on the site of an old slaughterhouse and studio, exhibiting works and sculptures by the artist, professor and founder of Grožnjan as the city of artists. The collection of the Gallery consists of sculptures made in the period from 1960 to 1980. For a small town, the existence of the gallery is a connection between the art and cultural heritage of Istria and the aim is to preserve all of this. KIPAR is the c roatian acronym for the Aleksandar Rukavina School of Sculpture, founded in 2018 and born from the need to revitalize the gallery and enhance the work of A. Rukavina. The summer school is held in the gallery, where students transform their ideas into stone sculptures. The students work under the professional supervision of Silvester Ninić, while the school's artistic coordinator and director is Rosana Giusti. Those interested in new experiences will be able to try the technique of manual stone modeling upon notice at kiparbrtonigla@zoho.eu or info@tzo-brtonigla.hr Read more

Fest of our Lady of Lourdes

The folk festivity of Our Lady of Lourdes in the village of Radini nearby Brtonigla has been commemorating the appearance of the Virgin Mary for over eighty years. Our Lady of Lourdes allegedly appeared in 1922 to a local woman Marina Pirovich, who communicated to the pastor the wish to build a church in Mary’s honour. Although her story invoked religious fervour in the hearts of other inhabitants who supported the idea, the priest remained unconvinced until the pleas were finally granted by the next pastor Roberto Galetti. The entire village participated in the construction. The wealthier families of Radini provided the land, stone was taken from the nearby quarry and the altar was designed by an unknown architect from the town of Pula who translated a vision of the cave in France in which little Beatrice saw Our Lady of Lourdes for the first time, to Radini.

PREDSTAVA „(SLUČAJNI) PERVEZNJAK“ – BRTONIGLA

18. međunarodni festival komornog teatra „Zlatni lav“, ove godine, održati će predstavu „(Slučajni) Perveznjak“ u Brtonigli. Monodrama je nastala po tekstu američkog autora Andrewa Goffmana, čiju režiju potpisuje Goran Grgić, a izvodi je Vladimir Andrić. Vrlo zabavan tekst govori o ozbiljnim stranama naizgled bezazlene priče o ovisnosti o pornografskim filmovima. To je jednako tako priča o odrastanju, upoznavanju seksualnosti i uklapanju u „normalan“ život, raznovrsniji od ovisničke utopije. Uz dobru dozu lascivnosti i još više humora PERVERZNJAK dira svačiju uspomenu pa tako nudi način na koji porok ostaje po strani od glavne matice vlastita života. Tek po strani – koliko god se borili, porok odnosno ovisnost ostaje. Read more
