The Astronomical Centre Rijeka houses a permanent exhibition by the famous artist Boris Mardešić under the title "The cosmic cycle" and a collection of star ship models. The late artist Boris Mardešić held his first independent exhibition in Rijeka in 1956. After his exhibition "The infinite universe" which was held in December 2010, he donated his pictures to the Rijeka sport company which manages the Astronomical Centre Rijeka.
