Underwater Exhibition by ISSA Executive Member Luka Radojević

    Porto Montenegro and Belgrade-based M2Cevent management agency present the underwater exhibition by Montenegrin artist Luka Radojević. The exhibition is set in the Tivat aquatorium, just off the island of Our Lady of Mercy. It is realized by the cooperation between Porto Montenegro Company and M2C.

        The concept of the underwater exhibition deals with time as an abstract phenomenon in the changing civilization.


    The exhibition is dedicated to sculptures of the antiquity. The sculptures in the exibition was largely inspired by torsos of the ancient Greece and ancient Rome. The artist also incorporates abstract elements reminiscent of the civilization of ancient Egypt in their geometric form and colour.

    The Greeks and Romans paid great attention to the portraitures, the proportions of the male and female torsos, to achieve the idealized human body. Through modeling, the Greeks and Romans came one step closer, in three dimensions, to the divine ideal proportions.

    "The best examples of ancient Greek sculptures have been preserved thanks to the sea, as they were found at archeological sites at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea on sunken ships. The bottom of the sea has kept a secret of these masterpieces for thousands of years. It is with the display of sculptures at the bottom of the sea that I, as an artist, wish to revive the mystical ancient times and to see our future through the vision of the past”, emphasizes by artist Luka Radojević.

    The exhibition will be staged until August 18th and can be enjoyed by all who come with diving equipment to Our Lady of Grace. Over 200 guests of Porto Montenegro and Regent Hotel, as well as the players of recently organized polo tournament in Tivat nautical resort, and many others, have been delighted with this extraordinary setting.
