These tapestries and their unmoved proportions fascinated
Clara Bleibtreu and she gathered a collection unique
worldwide. She use this collection for the creation
presented here. Today these villages are no longer
inhabited; after the 1990’s war, new technologies and
motives replaced the ones perpetrated for centuries. The
memory transmitted for thousands of years is no longer
transmitted. The plastic components of the beginning
of the abstraction are simple, but allow innumerable
variations and express a contemporary visual language in
work of Clara Bleibtreu, during latest 35 years.
In Ex Yugoslavia, Clara Jasna Tomic, as a young artist,
introduced sound and radio as components of a plastic
piece in 1989, on the occasion of her exhibition SQUARE
or the creation of a image through the Radio, which took
place following the fall of the Berlin Wall. This exhibition is
a historical event in Yugoslavia since it foresees its tearing
and introduces for the first time in Art history the radio as
a media in the creation of a plastic work. Critics speak of it
as art of the 21st century.
