Explosion of Contemporary Montenegrin Sculpture in Danilovgrad: Revolution or Just Another Exhibition?
Have you ever thought that sculpture could be more than cold stone or metal? Well, in Danilovgrad, a true artistic revolution is happening! The exhibition of contemporary Montenegrin sculpture at the Danilovgrad Artistic Colony Gallery has opened the doors to a world where sculpture is not just form, but a space of freedom and inner expression.
24 Artists, 24 Stories
The exhibition features 24 works, each with its unique story and style. From terracotta, glass, bronze, wood, to recycled materials and multimedia installations – these sculptors don’t just make objects, they create experiences. And no, this is not just another boring exhibition, but a real explosion of creativity and innovation.
Aura by Nikolina Zuber – Winner for a Reason
The annual Drago Đurović award was given to the sculpture “Aura” by Nikolina Zuber. Why? Because this sculpture merges traditional values with contemporary sensibility in a breathtaking way. Ljiljana Karadžić, an art historian, points out that “Aura” captivates with its poetic simplicity, strength, and symbolic depth. It’s not just an artwork, it’s an emotional punch.
Sculpture as a Space of Freedom
Novica Đurić, president of the Montenegrin Writers’ Association, opened the exhibition with words that will make you think: “Sculpture is not seen just as form, but as a space of freedom to explore inner expression.” So forget boring statues that just stand and stare – these sculptures breathe, speak, and provoke.
Why Does This Matter?
In a world where art is often reduced to instant content and shallow trends, this exhibition proves that Montenegro has a vibrant and dynamic sculpting scene. This art is not just for elitists – it’s for anyone who wants to feel something real, something lasting.
The Exhibition Runs Until the End of August – Don’t Miss It!
