Kalinić Pavle

Summary

Pavle Kalinić: Let za umjetnost = A Flight for Art

The interesting story of Pavle Kalinić's unusual collection of airplanes begins when he had several of his artist friends paint models of airplanes inspired by the CA-10 Penkala models constructed in 1910 by the famous Croatian inventor Slavoljub Penkala and the British Sopwith Camel airplane from World War I. In ten years, the collection increased to sixty-seven painted planes, and painters and sculptors of various generations answered the call, from the oldest and famous to the young and avant-garde, among whom stand out Ivan Kožarić, Željko Senečić, Marija Ujević-Galetović, Zlatko Keser, Mirko Ilić, Đuro Seder, Bane Milenković, Tomislav Buntak, Grupa ABS, Zoltan Novak, Vatroslav Kuliš, Vlado Martek, Ivica Propadalo, Zlatan Vehabović, Lidija Šeler, Paulina Jazvić, Nikolina Ivezić, Boris Ljubičić, Josip Zanki, Duško Šibl and many others. For a long time, this collection decorated the rooms of Pavel Kalinić, and when this monograph began to take shape, art critics Tonko Maroević and Leonida Kovač and writers Zoran Ferić, Ivica Prtenjača and Ervin Jahić joined. Although such a variety of authors had the same motif, this unusual and inspiring collection shows a cross-section of significant visual artists, their creative power, playfulness and artistic quality. The bilingual edition, Croatian and English, shows the features of an important monograph and will help provide insight into Croatian art to foreign readers as well.
