Igor Grubić
(1969, Zagreb, Croatia - lives and works in Zagreb, Croatia)
One of the most significant works in the beginning of his career as an activist artist was the action "Black Peristil in Split," in 1998. Since then, Grubić's work has continued to develop through the use of media provocations. Later in 1998, the artist organized "Book and Society - 22%," a one day multimedia manifestation with 40 participating artists joining in protest against the national 22 % tax on books. His most recent work with the hospital, "Ideas of the Clinic" is part of an ongoing project to break the institutional art system through interventions in public spaces.
