Written by  Jul 12, 2024

On July 12, 2024 at 11:00AM at the Museum of the Homeland War in Dubrovnik, artist Kat Coric officially unveiled her painting titled “Moja Domovina 1991” (My Homeland 1991). The painting was a gift from the artist to the museum to pay tribute to the Veterans of the Homeland War.

“We would like to once again express our gratitude to our donor, the artist Kat Coric, for her painting "My Homeland 1991," created during the early days of the Homeland War amidst wartime destruction, and which she gifted to her father, Captain Ivan Ćorić (1938 - 2015) in 1991. The painting is an oil on canvas, reflecting the deepest thoughts of Ms. Coric during one of the most challenging periods of her life, and it was part of a series titled "The Effects of the War on the Artist." The series was exhibited in Zagreb, Požega, and Dubrovnik in 1996.

Through this donation by Ms Coric, the painting returns to Dubrovnik and becomes part of the collection of the Museum of the Homeland War Dubrovnik, where it finds its place in the museum's collection and remains as a testament to the enduring memory of the Homeland War and the creation of the sovereign and independent Republic of Croatia,” added Ms. Varina Turk, the director of the Homeland War Museum in Dubrovnik.
