It was a great pleasure to visit the Central Military Club, so it is an even greater pleasure to have them as guests, said Stella Stanisic.
Nikola Kusovac talked about authors and their works displayed, the exhibition was described as outstanding, though the visitors in Lazarevac represented only a third of the collection.- A choice that we made was focused on our desire to present the most aesthetically pleasing experience, because we live in a time of so-called postmodernism. We tried to preserve the creative spirit, not the destructive one. Our artists who knew what you need to make the picture, and that we have the honour to present this evening, left a serious mark, and never agreed to demolish something without offering values, as the author of the exhibition remarked.
The exhibition will be opened in Lazarevac until 14 June 2013.
