Art Studio Naranča opened its doors in 1983, starting out as a small design studio crafting unique arts and crafts pieces. It wasn't until the early '90s, when the gallery relocated to a larger space on Majstora Jurja Street in the heart of Split's Diocletian Palace, that it truly began to blossom. This move marked a new chapter, expanding its horizons by hosting exhibitions featuring both Croatian and international contemporary artists.
One of the studio's standout events is the "Splitgraphic" International Graphic Biennial, a festival that first took shape a decade ago right here at Studio Naranča. By 2011, the fifth edition of this biennial was in full swing, drawing in a crowd of art enthusiasts and showcasing the talents of esteemed artists from Croatia and beyond.
Inside the gallery, you'll discover the captivating works of Pavo Majić, a graphic artist renowned for his prints and paintings. His creative flair extends to designed items that capture the imagination. Additionally, you can admire the unique jewelry crafted by Maja Mijač Majić, as well as books penned by both Marina and Pavo Majić. These items offer a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of Split and the creative minds that call it home. Strolling through this gallery is like stepping into a world where the past and present collide, offering a unique and inspiring experience for any visitor.
