Vela Luka: tears, memories and chairs, aged 70, in the town of Oliver Dragojevic

After the death of Oliver Dragojević, his closest friend Boris Gugić, known locally as Brico, opened a makeshift museum in Dragojević's barber shop in Vela Luka, showcasing photographs of the late artist and their shared memories. The collection includes images of Dragojević and Brico over decades of friendship, as well as photos of notable figures who visited the unique barber shop, including sports stars like Dino Rađa, Goran Ivanišević, and Ivica Šurbek. These individuals were chosen by Brico because they represented excellence in their respective fields, much like Dragojević did in music. Dino Rađa revisited Vela Luka two years after Dragojević's passing and reflected on the emotional impact of visiting his grave, expressing deep respect for the artist. Brico continues to operate the barber shop, now retired but still active, maintaining the legacy of both Dragojević and the iconic location.
