Ivan Ladislav Galeta: Curriculum Vitae

Ivan Ladislav Galeta b. 1947 in Vinkovci, Croatia. Lives and works in Zagreb. Graduated from the School of Applied Arts (Graphics Department) in 1968, and in 1970 from the Teachers Training Collage in Zagreb; in 1981, graduated from the Faculty of Arts (Department of Education). From 1971-77, Professor of Cinematography and Programmer at the Electronic Workshop of the Teachers College in Zagreb. From 1977-91, Manager of the Centre for Multimedia Research at the Students Centre, University of Zagreb. Since 1991 has worked as a Manager of the “artKINO” for Filmoteka 16 in Zagreb. During the last several years, I have been committed to building up my own “artistic landscape” according to the principles of traditional agriculture and experiences of Claude Monet (Life at Giverny), Béla Hamvas, Masanobu Fukuoka, Bill Mollison, Rut Stout… Since 1995, I have worked towards the introduction of permaculture principles and to organise agricultural consciousness in Croatia via a Permaculture Center for Croatia.
