Vlado Martek

Published by Sesame Galerija, Dubrovnik, 1989, 4 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 14.5 × 21.5 cm, English

Price: €35

Vlado Martek’s artistic beginnings go back to the time of the Group of Six Artists (Grupa šestorice autora, 1975–1979), which pursued its activities outside gallery spaces, mainly in the streets of Zagreb, seeking contact and dialogue with random passersby. Holding degrees in comparative literature and philosophy, Martek lucidly translated his wide knowledge of philosophy and poetry into art with his verbally and artistically poetic and socially critical statements.
