“Što Te Nema?” (“Why Are You Not Here?” in Bosnian) is a public monument created as a response to Europe’s worst atrocity since World War II: the systematic killing of more than 8, 000 Bosniak men and boys in the UN-protected safe area of Srebrenica and the surrounding areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina in July of 1995.

“Što Te Nema?” translates into English as both, “Why are you not here?” and “Where have you gone?”. The title is borrowed from an old Bosnian song about waiting and longing for a loved one.

“Što Te Nema?” is collectively assembled and disassembled by people on city plazas and squares on the anniversary of Srebrenica genocide each year. The public participates by placing small, porcelain coffee cups on the ground and filling them with Bosnian coffee prepared on the spot throughout the day. The thousands of small porcelain coffee cups called fildžani are continuously collected and donated by Bosnian families all over the world. Their number increases each year, roughly corresponding to the growing number of bodies found, identified and buried to date.

art museum websites when the artist was a communist: ...he continued to paint, despite the fact that every time someone in Soviet Russia made abstract art Joe Stalin would personally storm into their studio and start tearing apart the canvas with his teeth

art museum websites when the artist was a nazi: ...his work flourished from 1937–1945, a time where nothing particularly notable happened, and then he emigrated to the united states where he designed buildings for private universities

Latcho Drom (1993), dir. Tony Gatlif

A documentary following the music, journey, and culture of the Romani people from their genesis in India to many of the countries through which they passed. With minimal dialogue and subtitles/translations, the film lets the music and powerful performances speak for themselves.

These past two days, I've received messages asking how I feel as an Armenian toward israel recognizing the Armenian Genocide. I am not so naive as to think israel's ever-dormant conscience suddenly woke up one day and, after decades of actively denying the Armenian Genocide and using its lobbies to prevent U.S. recognition, decided to finally face the truth and "do the right thing". Anyone who is even the least bit aware of global politics can clearly see israel's negative stance toward Armenia and Armenians. Look at how the Armenian Quarter of Jerusalem is being treated. israelis defecate and spit at the doors of Armenian churches with no punishment. Only three years ago, israel was actively arming and supporting azerbaijan in its policies of ethnic cleansing in Artsakh. It is clear that israel's recognition of the Armenian Genocide has absolutely nothing to do with Armenians. Nor does it have anything to do with justice or historical truth. So why did they recognize the Armenian Genocide, and why especially now? From what I can see, the first reason is the weaponization of the Armenian Genocide against turkey. It's a common practice; whenever any government (israel has done this before, and so has the U.S.) wants to oppose turkey for one reason or another, the Armenian question is always the first weapon used. The second reason might be the fact that israel wants its own share of the tripp. As you might know, the current self-proclaimed "Armenian" government has sold some of our land to the U.S. under the pretense of "peace and prosperity". The transit routes would pass dangerously close to the Iranian border. I don't think I need to explain why israel would want to have a presence here. How do I feel about it? Not surprised, yet livid all the same. The fact that the country actively involved in committing a genocide is sticking its filthy hands in my people's wounds and using the blood to write its own agenda can evoke only one emotion— rage.
