The castle and the International Sculpture park in Jakovlje

Sculptures

Today the Park has about 60 works by authors from Croatia and abroad. They were created during the sixteen years of art colony  which supplied the Park with works from all generations and spanning a wide range of individual expression and poetic approach. The Park has become a kind of a northern counterpart  to the older Mediterranean Sculpture Symposium in Labin in the Istria region.  But while the latter is dedicated to the stone, the Colony in Jakovlje is from its beginnings programmatically  committed to the diversity of approaches. Sculptures are placed around the  castle and on a gentle slope before it, "breathing" freely in the open space with their form, material and concept.
