Forma viva, this unique collection of stone sculptures under the open sky, is situated in a park on the Seča peninsula near Portorož. It evolved in a series of international encounters of eminent sculptors, in a form of sculptor symposiums, beginning in the year 1961 upon an incitement of two Slovenian artists, namely Jakob Savinšek and Janez Lenassi. In the forty years of uninterrupted activity, have the sculptors from over thirty countries left to the Coast and Slovenian cultural treasury over 120 stone sculptures, of which the majority lies in the Seča park, and some also in parks of Koper, Izola and Piran. Beside the workshop in Portorož stone, you can visit also the other three workshops: Kostanjevica na Krki - wood, Ravne na Koroškem -metal, Maribor-concrete.
