Description

Ivan Sabolić was a Croatian sculptor, professor, and dean of the Academy of Fine Arts Zagreb. Self-taught, he made his first works in clay, including portraits of his father, mother, and grandfather, which make up his oldest surviving works.

Sabolić was a member of the post-war generation of sculptors who from the mid-20th century sought to escape from the strict framework of socialist realism and commissioned art and remain faithful to the Croatian tradition.

The gallery was opened to the public in 1983, with a permanent exhibition on the first floor of the old Captaincy (Company) from the 18th century.
