<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hunter S., post: 2196843, member: 13033&quot;]Well if you visited Bosnia it is a multi-ethnic society, many of the people there like to be called Bosnians...it is a very diverse society (it was even before the war)...as many of the people born there have parents from different religions...Serbs (Orthodox) + Croatians (Catholics) + Bosnian muslims + in smaller amounts Slovenians (Catholics) + North Macedonians (Orthodox) + Montenegrins (Orthodox)...its a fun bunch <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie79" alt=":shame:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />...lots of great artists and art came from former Yugoslavia, and they still come from these countries (Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Slovenia and Montenegro).</p><p><br /></p><p>So if you were to ask Bogdan Kršić to whom he belongs, as he was born in 1932...he will probably tell you he feels proud to be born Yugoslavian (as Yugoslavia was founded in 1918)...but that he is also of proud Serbian heritage but also proud to be Bosnian...so...<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie39" alt=":dead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Also there is a possibility he didn&#039;t feel proud to be Yugoslavian, as there is a possibility he was against it and that he was a nationalist...in that case he would be a proud Serbian only...</p><p><br /></p><p>So lots of possibilities...</p><p><br /></p><p>But as he was born in Sarajevo (Bosnia), he is a Bosnian, but as he was of Serbian descent, he worked in Belgrade (Serbia) as a professor on the Faculty of applied arts as a one of the most respected graphic artist of that time, but on the other hand he was also born in Yugoslavia...so:</p><p><br /></p><p>This etching is Yugoslavian-Serbian-Bosnian in a way <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>So if you want to explore, start from Yugoslavian school of art and then move on to the countries separately as well (Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, North Macedonia, Montenegro).</p><p><br /></p><p>All the best,</p><p><br /></p><p>Hunter S.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
