SupetART 2024 – a year in review
This year, we proudly continued SupetART, the artist-in-residence program at Hotel Supetar Cavtat, where our boutique hotel’s communal spaces are transformed into immersive pop-up galleries. In collaboration with SHPIGL, a distinguished Croatian art consultancy, we welcomed six talented artists from Dubrovnik who each brought their unique artistic vision, allowing guests to engage with the art and culture of the region in dynamic, memorable ways.
FEATURED ARTISTS…
Romana Milutin Fabris
A celebrated painter and tapestry artist whose career spans decades, Romana’s works are displayed internationally in museums, galleries, and private collections. Her refined style brings elegance and depth, resonating with viewers on both a visual and emotional level.
Under the title “Homage to Dubrovnik”, Romana Milutin Fabris exhibits works of art inspired by her hometown – Dubrovnik, its streets and landscape, as well as Mediterranean motifs.
Miho Skvrce
Known for his contemplative Polaroid photography series, “On the Edges of Reality,” Miho’s work explores abstract reflections and fogged landscapes. His pieces invite introspection, depicting a blurred yet profound narrative that bridges the natural world with a sense of mystical tranquility.

Until next year…
SupetART fosters a rich exchange between artists and guests, transforming Hotel Supetar into a space where art, culture, and conversation naturally converge. With each artist bringing fresh perspectives, these exhibitions allow guests to experience Croatian art in an intimate setting, deepening their connection to the region’s cultural landscape.
