Summary/Abstract: Editorial note: As part of this year’s program during the celebration of the first of March, the independence day of Bosnia and Herzegovina, an art exhibition was organized in the Bosnian cultural center in Gračanica under the name “Signs of Bosnia”, where Halida Emrić (plastic) and Halid Emrić (graphics) presented their work. The exhibition aroused considerable interest from the audience in Gračanica. As it is stated on the poster of the exhibition: “Every artifact from this exhibition is based on some sign of the rich cultural history of Bosnia from the earliest times to present day.” This is the first reason why we decided to pay more attention to Sead Emrić’s art in our magazine, as well as to use his graphics and paintings to enrich the pages of our magazine. The second reason being is that we promised to pay more attention to Emrić twenty-three years ago, when we enriched the covers and inside pages of the tenth issue (2000) of our magazine with his art. Although with great delay, we do so in this issue, the promise given was nevertheless fulfilled. In the meantime Emrić worked intensively and enriched his opus with new works, but also expanded his artistic expression with new creations on some forgotten motifs, mostly from the past of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with a recognizable flavor of Krajina and his native Bužim. In the past period, he presented his works at many independent and collective exhibitions; he is actively presented in the art life of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with occasional trips outside of its borders. With his work he aroused equal interest with the audience and art critics. Many art critics and experts of fine art wrote about his opus. For this occasion we have selected several passages from the Bosnian writer and art critic Vojislav Vujanović (1937 – 2018), which were created in the years 1997 – 2005, which were provided by Emrić from his personal archive.
