Expertise is the child of experience and comes of age with time.
An adequate tool in the hand of an expert is better than an excellent one in the hand of a novice.
The measure of a professional is the profit margin, whereas the measure of a pure artist is the sum emotive power of his work. An artisan, on the other hand, produces functional goods with high degrees of emotive power, valued both for their usability and aesthetic.
“Spomenik is the Slovenian, Serbian, Croatian, Serbo-Croatian word for Monument. In the 1960s and 70s, the former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito commissioned these structures to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place (like Tjentište, Kozara and Kadinjača), or where concentration camps stood (like Jasenovac and Niš). From 2006 to 2009, Jan Kempenaers toured around the ex-Yugoslavia region to photograph these amazing structures. Here’re my favorite ones.”
