Veronikin rubac
What does it look like when one artist judges the works of other artists and when he investigates, as the art critic and poet Gordana Benić writes, "mysterious connections in art as a space where image and word come together"?
Painter, sculptor and graphic artist Dimitrije Popović (Cetinje, 1951), one of the most famous Croatian artists in the world, interprets the canonical works of fine art by introducing the reader through the themes and symbols that characterized his drawing career.
The result is an atypical art book that, unlike classic historical-art studies, approaches the work of art from the inside, based on the experience of the creator, so in the end we read a kind of Popović's dialogue with the great masters and their works, a dialogue that is shaped in the book like some peculiar dictionary of symbols, that is, as "an imaginary museum of role models and models, a Malroian overview of prominent peaks and significant stylistic ranges" (Tonko Maroević).
