kupio. Naslov je nosila "Er-
geist" u Moi je bilo, osim
"Zdenca zivota", jos nekoliko
reprodukcija cd Mestrovica i
jedan poduzi clanak o MENU,
ali Sc sada ne sjecam autora.
To su prva njegova djela, ko-
ia sam vidio. Nekoliko godina
kasnije, ljeti, kada sam Sc
vracao kupanja, ma solin-

su imali dugu kosu, crne ST.

Splitu sam doznao, da je o.

Sac, da u Splitu podigne spo-
menik Luki Boticu, pjesniku
"Bijedne Mare. Tada sam
prviput, sto Sc sjecam, vidio
Mestrovica. On je kao djecak
dolazio, pricao mi je kasnije,
sa svojim ocem ma Malu Go
spu u Solin, u goste mojemu
ocu, ali ia ga Sc IL toga do
ba ne sjecam; bio sam ma
len. Poprsje Luke Botica je
njegovo mladenacko skromno
djelo, ali djelo umjetnicke
kvalitete. U MENU je Mes
trovic, uz svu snagu, dao
mekocu forme jakim oslon-
Gem ma prirodu, koja daje toj
skulpturi posebnu toplinu i
zivot.
Povodom izlozbe dru s tv a
"Medulic" u Zagrebu godine
1910, upoznao sam Sc osob-
no S Mestrovicem. Cd toga
doba do dana danasnjega sa-
cuvali smo drugarstvo i pri-
jateljstvo. Mnoge pro S ! a v e
proslavili smo zajedno, mno-
ge Bozice bozicevali i mno-
ge Uskrse uskrsevali zajedno.
Sprovodili smo zajedno i svo-
je rodjene ma zadnji pocinak.

leko jedan cd drugoga. Jedni

Ii IL svoje Domovine, drugi
barbari su krivi. da sc nismo
vratili u svoju Domovinu.
Ne poznam covjeka, koji je
toliko vezan uz svoju zemlju,
uz svoj jednostavni svijet i
uz njihov patrijarhalni zivot,
kao Mestrovic. Mega cd te
zemlje i tog svijeta nije mo-
gao odvojiti nj njegov veliki
uspon, nj njegova slava. U

SINE nadahnut svetom histo-
rijom. Zato je u mladenackim
svojim djelima donio stoljet-
ne patnje nase, stoljetne bor-
be nase j stoljetne teznje ma
Sc. Junaci, koje je on tada
modelirao, bill su zajednic-
XII cijelom zapadnom krscan-

di svojoj branili mas narod
nasu vjeru. U zrelim godina-
ma je osjetio nistavilo svake
pobune prema misteriju, u
kome Sc smiruje sve i izmiru-
je sve, i dao je u svojim die
lima zivot Isusa, u kome sve
vjecito zivi.
U svome stvaranju on ma
dovezuje ma proslost. Ali sc
mora istaci, da Sc uvijek ma
dahnjuje ma izvorima najsta-
rijih likovnih civilizacija Sre-
dozemlja - egipatskom pla-
stikom, arhaicko grckom i
klasicnom. Mega instinkt vo-
di ma te izvore, da nadoknadi
onu prazninu kod mas, u ko-
/ joj su mas razne najezde bile
zaustavile u nasem stvara-
nju. Nu uza sve to, sto Mes
trovic polazi cd pocetka, sre-
| dozemnog likovnog izraza; u
"a sve to, sto Sc osjeca pro-
slost u njegovoj skulpturi, i
ma u Moi mnogo vjecnih ele-
menata, i zapravo elemenata,
koji su izvanvremenski. Ina
jos nesto, sto je najbitnije "a
mas: ona je prozeta najdub-
linn izrazom naravi nasega
covejka. Ona je nasa. Cd ME
pocinje mas hrvatski likovni
izraz.
Pojavom m Mestrovica mi
prestajemo biti robovi tudjeg
izraza, mi presttajemo biti
, kmetovi, postajemo vlastela
u likovnom stvaranju. Njego-
va skulptura, koju on il Pa
RIA, nakon izlozaba u Muen-
chenu i Becu, donosi u "a
greb j il Zagreba prenosi ma
izlozbu u Rim, zadivljuje svi-
jet i zacudjuje smirenog gra-
djanina svojom snagom i di-
namikom. "Barbarus ct fan
tasticus" moglo Sc je tada
MEGA nazvati. Medjutim, kroz
dugo vrijeme svoga plodonos-
nog stvaranja razvio je Mes
trovic svoje kiparstvo do We
likih visina povezao sadas-
njicu, preko Rodina i Michel
angela, do najstarijih vreme-
ma. Nakon svoje epske dina
mike, smirene ljepote helen
skin mramora, liza monumen-
talnih svojih spomenika, on
je spoznao duboku religioznu
misao, prozetu poboznoscu,
koja je pocetak svakog u
mjetnickog stvaranja.
Mestrovic je tehnicko zna-
ME, u kome je dosegao od-
NAH u pocetku svoga stvara-
MIA zavidnu visinu, vjesto u
potrebljavao, da izrazi svoje
