Zagreb Triennial

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Zagreb Triennial (Croatian: Zagrebacki Trienale) was a short-lived art and design festival, held in Zagreb, Croatia. It took place just twice, in 1955 and 1959.

The first Zagreb Triennial was organized by Vjenceslav Richter, and sought to bring together a wide range of design disciplines, including applied arts, industrial design, and fine arts. The second triennial was not held until four years later, and was equally unsuccessful in its aim of popularising modernist design.
