Reviews

From the Introduction by Laura Barna (pgs. 20-22):

"Lazarevic's art studio emanates the powerful, creative energy of an individual as well as a highly educated intellectual. As a doctor and professor of the history of art and sculpture at Columbia University, Lazarevic is well-positioned to explore all periods in the development of art, from prehistoric times to postmodernism. He therefore employs memorized and recorded signs of civilization's hodograph to authoritatively restore their authentic identity as well as their ability to regenerate and self-regenerate through a process of free transformation. He also affords them the right to freely search for their own entity beyond identity and beyond the so-called social structure. His role as an artist is inevitable as an initiator of the artistic idea of a new renaissance. This, then, could be the circle of the utopian belief in art's humanistic mission that is immune to crises, because it always manages to outwit them with cyclical virtuosities."
