The well-known journalist Željko Žutelija visited our workshop located on Brač island and wrote an extensive text about our family and our work, which was published in Navigare, a supplement of the magazine Nacional:
“In Donji Humac on Brač island, there lives a unique family whose creativity confirms that art can grow from stone. In the centuries-old struggle with stone, gifted individuals were born who, respecting tradition and stone genes, turned their inner quarry into art. Dina Jakšić Pavasović and Lovre Jakšić presented their works at many exhibitions and received high awards. Man, like stone, wants to last. And everything that the struggle does is for duration, said the recently deceased academician Marija Ujević Galetović, the greatest Croatian sculptor. Egyptian pyramids, Dalmatian drywalls, tombs and tombstones on Brač or Zagreb’s Mirogoj show that the path to eternity is marked with stone.”We hereby thank the excellent journalist and our other friend Željko Žutelija for the excellent article about our family.
