U Muzej grada Zagreba je Umjetnički paviljon u Zagrebu upravo otvorio zanimljivu izložbu DREZDENSKI DNEVNIK ANKE KRIZMANIĆ.
Izložbu možete pogledati do 20. rujna.
Međutim, Muzej grada Zagreba ne uvažava članske iskaznice AICA Croatia pa će kolege koji misle pisati o izložbi morati platiti ulaznicu, za koju se MGZ pravda da ima malu cijenu, kao da je to tema profesionalnog uvažavanja.
Nedavno smo opetovano molili obrazloženje ove odluke koja je u suprotnosti sa smjernicama UNESCO kako bismo našim članovima objasnili ovu neobjašnjivu situaciju. Odgovor smo prvi p**a čekali nekoliko mjeseci, i na nasu ponovljenu inicijativu dobili vrlo šturi odgovor. Sada čekamo opet. No obrazloženje još nismo dobili. Proslijedili smo u MGZ i pismo AICA International, međutim, sasvim bezuspješno, bez ikakvog odgovora.

Postoji li mogućnost unapređenja odnosa muzeja prema likovnim kritičarima?
Hvala unaprijed!
