 May 2nd 2007 // by Vedrana Lukačević
With
her new collection of paintings, titled “Young Ladies of the
Catalogues“, the already well-established younger-generation artist
Petra Grozaj continues with her sequence of visual imagery and the
inner laws of the compositions which she uses to interconnect and
further develop the artistic elements that she has been using already
in her line of work.
In other words, in the matters of image and technique she insists upon maintaining the unity of polarity contained within the linear, or to say sketching principles (noticeable in the black outlines), placed in juxtaposition with the features executed in a painterly manner, using transparent as well as rich and thick layers of paint.

Feminist Forensic in Action!
Fine Dead Girls: Why First Croatian Celluloid Lesbians Had To Die
From Visual Pleasure to Passionate Detachment
Final Paper
Although celluloid depiction of lesbianism can hardly raise any
Hollywood eyebrows these days, in certain post-Communist Eastern
European countries you can find on the map only with the help of a
magnifying glass, seeing two women kiss on-screen is nothing short of
a cinematic revolution.

Interviews
|
 On June 2nd, 2006 there was great
koncert in Zagreb
in Kset by
canadian band Lesbians on
Ecstasy.
Cunterview crew had sooo much fun and some questions
for them.
Q: You just came back
from a concert in Ljubljana, what was that like?
A: It was different than we thought it would be. We tried
for a long time to book a show in Ljubljana with the people from 'City of
Women', and the only day we had free was June 1st when there is a big festival
of music. So all the clubs were saying 'no no no don't do a show, don't do a
show', nobody will come.

Vox Feminae eng
|
 January 15th 2007 by Đurđa Knežević
If a feminist workshop asked its
participants to recount some of the pervading stereotypes about
women, they wouldn't nearly be able to call to mind a half of what a
newly-launched Web portal žena.hr
(woman.hr), ''the first genuine Web
portal for Croatian women'', has listed with a sovereignty of someone
who trully KNOWS. Precisely, someone who is so immersed in the system
of stereotypes, to the point of being utterly unable to grasp an
alternative option of their own existence.
''Žena.hr is the first genuine Web
portal for women in Croatia''. This is the first sentence following
the headline welcoming with which ''the first and the genuine'' (as
in the Bible or in contemporary Muslim societies, where of all the
women at a man's disposal there is yet the One, who is ''first and
genuine'') portal introduces the audience into its own virtual
women's world, which may not even be the first of a kind, but
is definitely ''genuine'', at least according to their conviction.
