As a seasoned gamer who’s traversed countless virtual worlds, I can say that stepping into the real-life gallery of TROTOAR in Zagreb feels like unlocking a rare artifact in an epic quest. The exhibition “That’s What’s Up!” is a treasure trove for contemporary figurative painting enthusiasts, curated by the esteemed Saša Bogojev.
TROTOAR Gallery in Zagreb, Croatia, is thrilled to present “That’s What’s Up!“, a collective exhibition expertly assembled by Croatian-born writer and curator Saša Bogojev. This showcase brings together artists from around the world, delving into various methods employed in modern figurative painting. Among the participating artists are Sara Birns, Tim Brawner, Martyn Cross, Sara-Vide Ericsson, Julius Hofmann, Timothy Lai, Danica Lundy, Laurent Proux, Javier Ruiz Pérez, Kristof Santy, Dennis Scholl, Kristina Schuldt, and Christian Rex Van Minnen.
The show connects local and international art worlds, presenting pieces that acknowledge significant milestones in art history (Birns, Van Minnen), delve into technology and modern aesthetics (Hofmann, Brawner), place emphasis on texture and materiality (Cross, Lai, Ericsson, Ruiz, Santy), or blur the lines between reality and surrealism (Scholl, Schuldt, Proux, Lundy).
Bogojev is working towards enriching Croatia’s artistic community by bringing international perspectives to local viewers. As he tells Hypeart, “Croatia’s socio-political history has hindered global recognition of its artists, but these challenges have served as a base for uniqueness.
