MARIO NOVAK'S West Coast promotion of the book "Croatia" and “Breaking Boundaries” Exhibit

" Croatia is not a collection of images, it is the experience of Croatia in one long breath, one uninterrupted journey, from Ilok to Savudrijia to Dubrovnik: breathing, living, meeting the people of Croatia, seeing the land through their eyes, their soul. The journey was, for me, a pilgrimage through the country of my roots, the country that was, and always will be my home. I believe that there are many Croatians throughout the world who feel the same. They will find themselves here, in the pages of this book, where it is possible, even from afar, to immerse oneself in the extraordinary land of our origins. A traveler, as well, will enjoy this journey, will revisit many cherished places - and even discover Croatia anew."
Mario Novak

Breaking Boundaries is the new exhibit by Mario Novak, exploring the concept of "never before." A powerful combination of bringing state
of the art equipment to remote and challenging locations in Turkey, Croatia, and Central America, and quality printing in sizes and resolution that will blow you away. 2Gb images printed 30 feet wide; printed, mounted and framed in Mario's studio. With this work Mario demonstrates his mastery of photography, printing and studio work.
With the generous help of Calumet, who supplied every piece of equipment Mario is using, this showcase is a glimpse of a new dimension of photography.

Meet Mario Novak, Croatian writer as he presents his award-winning book of photography from Croatia.
3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.
