The School of Applied Arts and Design was founded in 1882 as the Royal Land Craft School and is the oldest educational institution of this type in Croatia, from which other schools and faculties were later created. It is precisely the long tradition and many internal reforms of the school that favored its adaptability to new paradigms of education, creating a place and practice that in the educational approach of the art school creates a stimulating environment for the creativity of current and future generations.
Today, ŠPUD works as a fourth-year art school. The first year of education is preparatory, and in the second year, students choose one of the nine departments where they continue their education: Arranging and scenography department, Interior architecture department, Photography department, Graphics department, Ceramics design department, Sculpture department, Metal design department, Painting department , Department of Textiles.
Shared Realities for the School of Applied Arts and Design in Zagreb represent the dynamic processes of secondary school art education taking place across multiple locations in the city, as a result of post-earthquake circumstances. Over the past year, this dynamic has become even more intense and challenging. Art classes are being held in temporarily adapted spaces at the Zagreb Fair, in the Chinese and several auxiliary pavilions, while the School’s main building awaits renovation and is undergoing demanding preparatory procedures.
The School’s exhibition activities, along with those of its gallery, have been spreading throughout various city spaces, undergoing new transformations, experiments, and adaptations. In the previous edition of the festival, the focus was on the experience of “all at once,” presenting simultaneous events and images in which the School’s community remained recognizably present, yet at a safe distance. This year, the audience is invited to come closer to these realities and engage with them, through two different exhibition spaces under the title Revival Field – an inner, small, and intimate one, where emotions will be shared, and an outer, unfinished one, full of expectations.
