Viktor Kova\u010di\u0107 was a very active member of the Society of Croatian Artists. After its dissolution, he joined the Society of Arts led by Izidor Kr\u0161njavi. As a member of the Society, he regularly exhibited at joint events, and for several exhibitions he designed the layout and decoration of the exhibition spaces. During 1904, Kova\u010di\u0107 also joined the newly founded Union of South Slavic Artists “Lada”, at whose exhibitions he also exhibited regularly, set up exhibitions and created catalogs. In addition to exhibitions, Kova\u010di\u0107 also decorated interiors for numerous social events during his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And this time, Viktor Kova\u010di\u0107 really stood out with the extraordinary arrangement of the aforementioned hall. Until the village, our halls were arranged in various ways for the purpose of dances, and most of all these arrangements were characterized by bad taste.
