Art Historian and Pedagogue
Andrea Manenica graduated in Pedagogy and Art History from the University of Zadar. She currently works at the Jaman Art Centre in Split, where she focuses on presenting and promoting the work of a well-known Split-based pop art artist.
She especially enjoys working with gallery visitors and sharing her knowledge and passion for pop art. She finds her greatest inspiration in the youngest gallery visitors, who continually surprise her with their observations and unique experiences of art.
Andrea credits her path into this field to a pop art education programme created within KoHo Pedagogy.
