If you ask in Sarajevo, where the synagogue is, everyone will surely direct you to the four-towered, Moorish-style building, built in 1902 for the Bosnian Ashkenazi community. The temple is located on the left bank of the Miljacka River, between Drvenija and Ćumurija Bridges. This is the only active synagogue in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where the now only seven hundred Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews whose grandparents returned from the death camps, pray in Bosnian, regardless of their origin and mother tongue.

“Synagoga et Ecclesia”

This painting made several Christians mad, which means I’m doing everything right. This is my interpretation of a medieval motif, allegorical figures of Church and Synagogue, where the latter is traditionally depicted as old and weak. Here, I’m exploring the themes of Christian antisemitism, a prevalent issue to this day. Many Christians still view Jews as cursed and sinful. / Эта картина разозлила нескольких христиан, что значит я всё делаю правильно. Это моя интерпретация средневекового мотива с аллегорическими фигурами Церкви и Синагоги, где последняя традиционно показана старой и немощной. Я работаю с темой христианского антисемитизма, распространённой проблемой даже в наши дни. Многие христиане до сих пор считают евреев проклятыми и греховными.
