Geocache Description:


CRO

Umjetnost liječi dušu, a ona je prožeta našom stvarnošću u kojem god obliku da ju zamislimo. Ona se nalazi u prirodi, svemu što nas okružuje, u ljudima, nastaje među ljudima i iz ljudi, jer doslovno ljepotu stvaranja možemo ugledati u svemu, ako znamo u što gledati. Vještina kojom nastaju nova umjetnička djela posebna je i specifična, a umjetnici su kroz stoljeća pokazali kako ona nije rezervirana samo za odabrane. Vještina dolazi iz nas samih i naše inspiracije koju crpimo iz svega oko nas, stoga to sve čini jedan neraskidivi krug. Inspiracija onima koji su vješti „s rukama“, majstorima svog zanata, obrtnicima i radnicima traje koliko traje i sama umjetnost, a kako se ona odavno preselila na ulice, ostaje na uživanje svima nama koji kao mali prolaznici u njoj možemo istinski uživati. Boris Bare eminentni je zagrebački umjetnik čiji radovi krase brojne fasade i zidove diljem naše, ali i drugih europskih i svjetskih zemalja. Njegovi murali svojim svakodnevnim živopisnim slikama podsjete nas na one vrijedne i marljive ljude koji godinama radeći svoj zanat, čine naš život neopisivo lakšim. Dopustite da vas povedemo u šetnju zagrebačkim ulicama tragom ovih predivnih umjetničkih djela koja su, na bolje, promijenila vizuru našega grada.Kako izgleda jedan „radni dan“ muralista i njegove ekipe mnogima je čak i teško zamisliti. Iako na prvu ruku glamurozno i romantično, boemski i umjetničko, težak je to posao. Posao stvaranja koji, nimalo romantično, često započinje toliko rano, kada ostatak svijeta još uvijek tumara carstvom snova. Zahtjeva veliku koncentraciju, fokus, fizičku spremu, snagu i izdržljivost. Potrebno je i malo hrabrosti, jer popeti se na dizalicu velike zgrade ne izgleda nimalo jednostavno, a kamoli svakodnevno i uobičajeno. No njima je to nekako normalno. Jednako kao što je i obrtnicima normalno dan započeti u zoru i raditi teško, ali svojom vještinom čine da njihovo stvaranje izgleda doista lako. Primjećujete li koliko sličnosti zapravo skrivaju ove dvije vještine? Koliko ih zajedničkih stvari neraskidivo povezuje? Ta iskra, kap vještine, skrivena je i u jednima i u drugima.Đakovačka ulica na Remizi, Savska ceste preko puta Grif Bar-a, okretište Črnomerec i Dobojska ulica na Trešnjevci lokacije su u Zagrebu do kojih možete prošetati i zastati, zapitati se ili jednostavno uživati u predivnim umjetničkim djelima. Možda vam dođe toplo oko srca, jer dani su hladniji. Ne zaboravite samo da naše ruke uvijek možemo sakriti u džepovima pred naletom jakog vjetra. No, negdje će neki majstor, radnik, umjetnik, svoje ruke izložiti. Ruke hrapave i teške od godina zahtjevnog rada, ruke sačinjene od stvaranja. Ruke koje svojom vještinom, svojim grifom, čine ovaj naš svijet toliko posebnim.

Art heals the soul, and it is imbued with our reality in whatever form we imagine it to be. It is found in nature, in everything that surrounds us, in people, it arises among people and from people, because we can literally see the beauty of creation in everything, if we know what to look at. The skill with which new works of art are created is special and specific, and artists have shown over the centuries that it is not reserved only for the chosen ones. The skill comes from ourselves and our inspiration that we draw from everything around us, so it all makes one unbreakable circle. Inspiration for those who are skilled "with hands", masters of their craft, craftsmen and workers lasts as long as art itself, and as it has long since moved to the streets, remains to be enjoyed by all of us who as little passers-by can truly enjoy it.

Boris Bare is an eminent Zagreb artist whose works adorn numerous facades and walls throughout our country, but also in other European and world countries. His murals with their everyday vivid paintings remind us of those hardworking and diligent people who, by doing their craft for years, make our lives indescribably easier. Let us take you for a walk through the streets of Zagreb in the wake of these beautiful works of art that have, for the better, changed the look of our city. Although glamorous and romantic at first glance, bohemian and artistic, it is hard work. The work of creation that, not at all romantic, often begins so early, when the rest of the world is still roaming the realm of dreams. It requires great concentration, focus, physical fitness, strength and endurance. It also takes a little courage, because climbing the crane of a large building does not seem at all easy, let alone everyday and common. But it's kind of normal for them. Just as it is normal for craftsmen to start the day at dawn and work hard, but with their skill they make their creation look really easy. Do you notice how many similarities these two skills actually hide? How many things do they have in common? That spark, a drop of skill, is hidden in both.

Đakovačka ulica on Remiza, Savska cesta across from Grif Bar, Črnomerec roundabout and Dobojska ulica on Trešnjevka are locations in Zagreb where you can walk and stop, ask questions or simply enjoy beautiful works of art. You may feel warm around your heart because the days are colder. Just remember that we can always hide our hands in our pockets from a gust of strong wind. But somewhere some master, worker, artist will exhibit his hands. Hands rough and heavy from years of demanding work, hands made from creation. Hands that with their skill, their vulture, make this our world so special.
