He emphasized that it is interesting that artists from abroad who participated in colonies, came with the bigger prior knowledge about Alija Izetbegovic than about B&H, and added that the third international art colony “My escape to the freedom“ will start on 25th September in Pocitelj.
The exhibition was organized by the PI Museum “Alija Izetbegovic“ in the cooperation with the Association of visual artists of B&H, and will be opened until 2nd October.
