Be CROative!
01 Jan 1970 - 01 Jan 1970
Although it is not always known where they
come from, some of the inventions and
products are simply unavoidable in everyday
life like the polyphase system of alternating
currents invented by Nikola Tesla or system
of fi ngerprint classifi cation invented by Ivan
Vuèetiæ.
Did you know that the necktie – an eternal
symbol of men’s elegance originally comes
from Croatia? Or that the famous Bridge of
Sighs in Venice is made of stone from the
Island of Brac, a material of incomparable
quality also used for the White House in
Washington?
We cordially invite you to discover other
famous Croatian products and creations at
the Be CROative! exhibition and let us unveil
a less-known side of the soon-to-be EU member
state and its contributions to the cultural
and economic dynamism of Europe.
The multi-media exhibition based on the
see-listen-feel idea will give you a taste of
Croatia in the best possible light. Luxurious
glass show-cases containing products and
inventions, a video-wall showing images
of Croatian products, panoramic views
accompanied by typical Croatian sounds of
the sea, sea-gulls and crickets will give you
a chance to see, taste and hear the best of
what Croatia has to offer. Come and Be CROative
with us!
