Mersad Berber, La Mort D'un Artiste De Renommée Internationale Mersad Berber, la mort d'un artiste de renommée internationale Extrait du Bosnie-Herzégovine, toute l'actualité et infos http://bhinfo.fr/mersad-berber-la-mort-d-un-artiste,3052/ IN MEMORIAM Mersad Berber, la mort d'un artiste de renommée internationale - Mag - Date de mise en ligne : samedi 13 octobre 2012 Bosnie-Herzégovine, toute l'actualité et infos Copyright © Bosnie-Herzégovine, toute l'actualité et infos Page 1/4 Mersad Berber, la mort d'un artiste de renommée internationale Né en 1940, en Bosnie-Herzégovine, Mersad Berber a été l'artiste dont le nom est connu et reconnu par les amateurs d'art du monde entier. Diplômé en 1963 de l'école des Beaux-arts de Ljubljana, capitale de la Slovénie, il est, en 1965, pour la première fois, exposé à titre individuel dans cette ville. Depuis cette date, Mersad Berber n'a cessé d'élargir le champ de son activité. Récompensé pour son travail à de nombreuses reprises depuis 1966, le talent de Mersad Berber s'est également affirmé dans d'autres domaines que la peinture. Nommé, en 1978, professeur à la Faculté de Beaux Arts de Sarajevo, illustrateur de livres internationalement salué (1980 - New Delhi ; 1983 - Leipzig), auteur d'un dessin animé, « Tempo secondo » (1985 - Zagreb), le théâtre lui a également permis, notamment aux Etats-Unis (1982 - Washington D.C.- The Merchant of Venice, Shakespeare), de donner, par la création de décors et de costumes, une dimension supplémentaire à son travail de peintre. C'est des villes comme Hambourg, Munich, Cologne, Bologne, Florence, Milan, Trieste, Londres, Istanbul, New-York, Washington, Montréal, Vancouver, Tokyo, Moscou, Madrid, Barcelone qui l'ont accueilli et l'ont célébré pour ses peintures. En 1984, la célèbre Tate Gallery de Londres a fait l'acquisition de son travail et a fait de lui un des grands de la peinture contemporaine. Plus récemment, depuis 1998, Albemarle Gallery de Londres exposent ses peintures, avec notamment l'exposition intitulé Cartes postales et souvenirs de Sarajevo en mars 2007, inspirée de mémoires des images de guerre. Copyright © Bosnie-Herzégovine, toute l'actualité et infos Page 2/4 Mersad Berber, la mort d'un artiste de renommée internationale Mersad Berber avec notre journaliste Sanda Tafic-Droumaguet (Londres 2007) Trait d'union entre l'Orient et l'Occident, l'oeuvre de Mersad Berber est caractérisée par la diversité de ses techniques d'expression. D'abord spécialiste de la peinture à l'huile, il a cependant exploré d'autres techniques graphiques. Dès 1958, il s'essaie à la technique du dessin au fusain (« Deux vieilles photographies, I et II »). En 1960, son travail l'amène à aborder le dessin à l'encre de Chine (« La vieille demeure », « Le vieux carrosse ») et, vers 1963, la lithographie en couleur (« La cavalerie rouge, I et II ») et la gravure sur bois colorée (« Le cheval rouge »). A la fin des années 1960, et durant les années 1970, il s'intéressera à la gravure à l'eau forte, à la gravure sur bois avec sérigraphie (« L'âge du Romantisme », « Jour de fête en Bosnie »), ainsi qu'au travail à la gouache et à l'huile sur bois (« L'infante en blanc »). Au début des années 1990, il s'orientera vers les techniques combinées, la peinture à l'huile sur carton et le dessin au sépia sur papier. Copyright © Bosnie-Herzégovine, toute l'actualité et infos Page 3/4 Mersad Berber, la mort d'un artiste de renommée internationale Tout en demeurant cohérent, le travail créatif de cet artiste a connu plusieurs cycles. Parmi les plus importants, on peut citer les « Chroniques de Sarajevo », « L'âge du Romantisme » , l' « Hommage à Velasquez » et , plus récemment , l' « Hommage à Pierro de la Francesca », les « Motifs florentins » et le « Cycle blanc »,avec le célèbre « Cartes postales et souvenirs de Sarajevo ». Fortement influencé par la culture bosniaque, sa peinture trouve son inspiration dans la culture byzantine, la culture ottomane, et dans les oeuvres de la Renaissance, du Baroque et du 19ème siècle européen. Si, dans l'évolution artistique de Mesad Berber, Francesco Hayez et Goya furent des sources majeures, son oeuvre puise également sa force chez les grands maîtres de la peinture occidentale, tels que Rubens, Rembrandt, Vermeer, Velasquez, Michelangelo, Durer, Da Vinci. Cette interaction et ce mélange de styles, de tempéraments et de traditions sont la caractéristique principale du travail de Mersad Berber auquel ils donnent une dimension universelle. Vivant et travaillant, depuis 1992, à Zagreb (Croatie), c'est dans cette ville qu'il est décedé dimanche 7 octobre 2012 a l'age de 72 ans. par Sanda Tafic-Droumaguet Copyright © Bosnie-Herzégovine, toute l'actualité et infos Page 4/4.

    Letter of Support From: ACADEMICIANS, HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS, POLITICAL LEADERS AND INTELLECTUALS FROM AROUND THE WORLD WHO SUPPORT THE OPEN APPEAL OF OVER 200 BOSNIAN AND HERZEGOVINIAN INTELLECTUALS To: Members of the United Nations, OSCE, PIC, the United States of America, the European Union, and national offices of Bosnia and Herzegovina Sarajevo - Washington D.C. Berlin – London – Paris December 2011 for the RE-ESTABLISHMENT OF THE THOUSAND-YEAR-OLD MULTI-ETHNIC LIFE OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA, DESTROYED OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS This is a public call for support of the Open Appeal from over 200 Bosnian and Herzegovinian intellectuals to the members of the United Nations, OSCE, PIC, the USA and the European Union and the authorities of Bosna and Herzegovina to take all the measures in their power to restore and strengthen the democratic, multi-ethnic, multi- cultural and legally recognized state of Bosnia-Herzegovina. That state was broken and brutally destroyed by the 1992-1995 War. Its recovery has been effectively prevented by the indefinite attempt to implement the Dayton-Paris Accords (of November–December 1995). The state of Bosnia-Herzegovina should now be revived so that it can function again as a healthy European state. The Dayton settlement served unfortunately to consolidate, for the sake of peace, the effects of “ethnic cleansing” (genocide) in half of the Bosnia-Herzegovina territory. This is the major reason that we are now faced with the deepest, long-term, social and political crisis in the modern history of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We remain hopeful that this mistake can be undone by the ICTY and by creation of a new Constitution.

  • Bosnia Guidebook
    BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA PREFACE Bosnia and Herzegovina is a mountainous Balkan country bordering Croatia, Serbia, and Montenegro. Bosnia and Herzegovina are two distinct regions divided by the Dinaric Alps. Bosnia takes its name from the Bosna River; Herzegovina from the word herceg (duke), the title of the region’s late 15th century rulers. The medieval Balkans experienced a bewildering series of population shifts and boundary changes until the Ottomans completed their conquest of the peninsula in the 16th century. Bosnia and Herzegovina remained under Ottoman rule until 1878, when the Congress of Berlin transferred it the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After World War II, Bosnia and Herzegovina was incorporated into Yugoslavia as one of six federal republics. The name Bosnia and Herzegovina is often shortened to Bosnia or BiH. The three main ethnic groups in present-day Bosnia and Herzegovina are Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims), Bosnian Serbs (who are predominately Orthodox), and Bosnian Croats (who are predominately Catholic), and the languages spoken are Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian (formerly Serbo-Croatian). Yugoslavia’s unraveling was hastened by Slobodan Milosevic’s rise to power in 1986. Milosevic’s embrace of Serb nationalism led to inter-ethnic strife. In March 1992, the Bosnian government held a referendum on independence, and Bosnia’s parliament declared the republic’s independence on April 5, 1992. However, this move was opposed by Serb representatives, who favored remaining in Yugoslavia. Bosnian Serbs, supported by neighboring Serbia, responded with armed force in an effort to partition the republic along ethnic lines. The conflict continued through most of 1995, ending with the November 21, 1995 Dayton Peace Agreement, which was formally signed on December 14, 1995 in Paris.
