Forma Viva

Forma viva - an open air sculpture exhibition

Creation of this collection of outdoor stone sculptures began in 1961, encouraged by Slovenian artists Jakob Savinšek and Janez Lenassi. Over more than 50 years of continuous work, sculptors from over 30 different countries left more than 130 stone sculptures standing around the city, surrounded by a grove of indigenous Piran olive tree varieties and a beautiful view extending from the park to the Bay of Portorož and the surrounding area.                    Foto: © Ubald Trnkoczy
