Maxo Vanka is ALIVE, and tech savvy
133 years young, the painter known for his murals at Millvale’s Saint Nicholas Croatian Church, Maxo Vanka is alive and well in 2022. He’s also hip to 2022 tech. Though he’s shed his earthly body, his soul can be felt through new works of art and his voice heard through the murals on the church’s walls. The murals, who’s messages ring as true today as they did 85 years ago, were created just before the start of Second World War.
Pittsburgh’s public art could be likened to the city’s fingerprint. It is unique, celebratory of local voices, and a testament to its post-industrial landscape.
As public art invites everyone to interact with the creative spirit of Pittsburgh, The (New) Pittsburgh Exposition offers seven public art sites in and around the city that have helped define its civic art scene.
