Programmes Living Pictures Living Pictures Associates
Zagreb City Museum would like most heartily to thank all those who took part, collaborated or in any way helped with their knowledge and good will in the production of the Living Pictures project.
In particular we thank all those who took part with their own living pictures, all the staff at Zagreb City Museum and many colleagues, associates and friends of the museum as well as some professionals who liked the challenge of acting outside the theatre: actors Sreten Mokrović, Anja Šovagović Despot, Dragan Despot, Adam Končić, Zijad Gračić, and prima donnas Ivanka Boljkovac and Martina Tomčić.
The list of associates is impressive. Thanks to its work with costume designer Doris Kristić, the museum has formed a collection of historical costumes made by excellent tailors, dressmakers, shoemakers, hatters, wigmakers and milliners. In addition, we have been helped by masters of the art of hairdressing and make-up.
We would like to thank those who for a number of years have lent us costumes from their collections: Croatian Radio-Television (the CRT wardrobe), Jadran Film, the Komedija Theatre, the Croatian National Theatre, the Gavella Theatre and Josip Hires.
We thank private lenders who were ready to trust us with items they owned: Maja (Gregor) Povšić for the loan of items from a private collection of old cars and equipment, Branimir Klarić, owner of the CZ motor cycle and Maja Štrban-Knapić for personal items of her father, Antun Štrban, motorcyclist.
The project has had the lasting support of the city of Zagreb Tourist Office and numerous media that cover all the events and encourage Zagreb people to visit Zagreb City Museum for Living Pictures.
Well aware that the project is grounded in and specific to the activity of the museum, the Zagreb Municipal Office for Education, Culture and Sport has given financial support for its production.
The project Living Pictures has grown into a traditional Zagreb City Museum activity. Tens of thousands of visitors are the best proof of the justification of our engagement in the promotion of the cultural heritage of the city of Zagreb.
