Summary
Vojo Dimitrijević: Ten days in Paris
"In our community, Vojo Dimitrijević is the originator of modernism and abstraction. In the broader social and artistic field, his merits are countless: he is the founder of the Collegium Artisticum, the founder and first director of the School of Fine Arts in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the founder of the Society of Fine Artists of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and then the Society of Applied Arts. According to his idea, the building in which the Academy of Fine Arts is located was chosen co-founder. For Sarajevo and the whole country, his intervention in 1947 to prevent the demolition of the entire Baščaršija neighborhood is invaluable...
What would my childhood, my life and the lives of many other Sarajevo residents have been like if that place, inappropriate and crazy idea of progress, would have been like at all? Some of these great floating answers found in this book and in my father's art work."
