The Valkulture Association in cooperation with Pikto Gallery and Branimir Center organizes Art Pullover, which is far more than just another Advent location. We have literally summed up this idea of spreading good works – at the new Advent location (warm and safe), we gathered more than 50 young Croatian artists from an independent scene that will offer their works at affordable prices under the motto “Art Available to Everyone”. who will present and sell their works at affordable prices.
At a large sales exhibition, you can find graphics, watercolors, oil on canvas, sculptures, posters, and unique original prints on shirts, bags, cups, bookmarkers, and even sweaters.
“We wanted to make a little different Advent story. Along with the rich program, the emphasis is on the artists we wanted to give a chance to present to the Zagreb audience. By purchasing original gifts in a warm adventurous atmosphere, you can directly support young artists, “said one of the organizers Nela Simić at a press conference held on 24.11.2016. in Branimir center.
