...

Neka je djedovska velika kuća Uvijek i širom Otvorena Za one koji nikada ne mare Za starostavne Ni za nove Care Koji ne mare za kralje Niti za bane Ni bojare Za njihova moćna blaga Za dukate zlate Za dinare Za te Zle Pare ...

May the house of our elders Be always and wide Open For those who never tend Upon ancient And new Czars For those who do not tend Upon kings And dukes Or boyars Upon their mighty riches Upon golden ducats Upon dinars Upon those Cursed Coins ...

Mak Dizdar ‘The House in Mile’

Makova hiža spomen-kuća, muzej umjetnosti stećaka, stolački dom

Makova hiža je kulturni centar posvećen životu, djelu i duhu velikog bosanskohercegovačkog pjesnika Maka Dizdara.

Iako je najveći dio života proveo u Sarajevu, Mak nikada nije prestao sanjati o povratku u svoj rodni grad, Stolac. U ispunjavanju ove želje spriječila ga je prerana, tragična smrt u pedesetčetvrtoj godini života. Makova hiža je, najprije, pokušaj da se ova želja ispuni posthumno, simbolično, ona je izraz duga koji Makova porodica, prijatelji i poštovaoci njegovog djela osjećaju prema ovom velikom čovjeku i umjetniku.

The Mak House: memorial house, museum of stećak art, Stolac home

The Mak House is a cultural centre devoted to the life, work and spirit of the great Bosnian-Herzegovinian poet Mak Dizdar.

Although he spent most of his life in Sarajevo, Mak never stopped dreaming about returning to his birthplace Stolac. He was prevented from fulfilling this desire by his too early, tragic death in the fifty-fourth year of his life. The Mak House is, primarily, an attempt to fulfill this wish posthumously, symbolically, it is the expression of a debt felt towards this great man and artist by Mak’s family, friends and admireres of his work.

Soba uspomena Jezgru Makove hiže čini spomen-soba u kojoj je izložena kolekcija Makovih originalnih rukopisa, knjiga sa bilješkama, dokumenata, fotografija i nekoliko Makovih portreta autora Maria Mikulića, Mirze Ibrahimpašića i Magdalene Nuneske. U biblioteci se također čuvaju različita izdanja Makovih djela, prevodi njegove poezije na mnoge evropske i svjetske jezike, eseji i osvrti na njegova djela... Konačno, tu je i biblioteka posvećena različitim aspektima bosanskohercegovačke historije, umjetnosti, kulture i identiteta.

Eksponate možete posmatrati dok slušate snimke Makovih stihova u izvedbi Radeta Šerbedžije, Hasije Borić, Fabijana Šovagovića, Roberta Pehara...

Room of memories

The nucleus of The Mak House is a memorial room containing an exhibition of Mak’s original manuscripts, annotated books, documents, photographs and Mak’s portraits by the authors Mario Mikulić, Mirza Ibrahimpašić and Magdalena Nuneska.

The memorial room also holds different editions of Mak’s works, translations of his poetry into numerous languages, essays and reflections on his work... Finally, there is a library dedicated to different aspects of Bosnian-Herzegovinian history, art, culture and identity.

The exhbition in the memorial room can be viewed while listening to recordings of Mak’s verses spoken by Rade Šerbedžija, Hasija Borić, Fabijan Šovagović, Robert Pehar...

Muzej umjet Poznavaoci Makovog naučnog i poetskog djela svjesni su značaja koji je on pripisivao fenomenu stećaka. U jednom često citiranom intervjuu iz 1970. godine, Mak je izjavio: “Stećak je za mene ono što nije za druge, ono što na njemu i u njemu nisu drugi umjeli ni znali da vide. Jest kamen, ali jeste i riječ, jest zemlja, ali jeste i nebo, jest materija, ali jeste i duh, jest krik, ali jeste i pjesma, jest smrt ali jeste i život, jest prošlost, ali jeste i budućnost.”

Iako su se mnogi autori prije i poslije Maka bavili stećcima kao historijskim artefaktom, svojim naučnim (“Stari bosanski tekstovi”) i poetskim (“Kameni spavač”) radom on je učinio najviše na njihovoj valorizaciji kao umjetničkom djelu.

U skladu sa Makovim shvatanjem značaja stećaka, odlučeno je da se ovdje, u Stocu, gradu u čijoj okolini se nalaze najpoznatije nekropole stećaka, u kući posvećenoj njegovoj poeziji, stvori dom za umjetnike čija djela su inspirisana stećcima i bosanskim srednjovjekovljem uopšte. U galeriji su, tako, izložene fotografije stećaka velikana hrvatske fotografije Toše Dabca iz šezdestih godina dvadesetog vijeka. Na zidovima bašte možete vidjeti crteže i tumačenja motiva sa stećaka švicarskog historičara umjetnosti Rudolfa Kutzlija. Tu su i skulpture slova medijevalnog bosanskog pisma bosančica bosanskohercegovačke konceptualne umjetnice Amre Zulfikarpašić. Dva velika reljefa australskog skulptora Adisa Fejzića predstavljaju savremeni pogled na tradicionalne prikaze sa stećaka. U Hiži možete vidjeti i replike stećaka Halide Emrić i Senada Šabovića.

tnosti stećaka

Museum of Those who are familiar with Mak’s scientific and poetic work are aware of the signficance that he ascribed to the phenomenon of the stećak, the medieval Bosnian tombstone. In an oft-cited interview he gave in 1970, Mak said: “For me, the stećak is something that it is not for others, it is what others did not know how to see on it and in it. It is a stone, but it is also a word, it is the earth, but it is also the sky, it is matter, but it is also spirit, it is a cry, but it is also a song, it is death, but it is also life, it is the past, but it is also the future.” Although numerous authors before and after Mak have written about the stećak as a historic artefact, through his scientific (“Old Bosnian Writings”) and poetic (“The Stone Sleeper”) work he contributed most to its valorization as a work of art.

stećak art In accordance with Mak’s understanding of the significance of the stećak, a decision was made to create a home for artists who are inspired by the stećak and the Bosnian Middle Ages in general precisely here, in Stolac, the town in whose surroundings are located the most significant stećak sites, in the house that is dedicated to Mak’s poetry. In the gallery, there is an exhibition of stećak photos made in the 1960s by Tošo Dabac, one of the greats of Croatian photography. On the walls of the garden, you can see drawings and interpretations of stećak motifs by the Swiss historian of art Rudolf Kutzli. There are also sculptures of letters of the medieval Bosnian script ‘Bosančica’ by the Bosnian-Herzegovinian conceptual artist Amra Zulfikarpašić. Two large reliefs by the Australian sculptor Adis Fejzić represent a contemporary view of traditional images found on the stećak. In The Mak House, you can also see replicas of the stećak by the artists Halida Emrić and Senad Šabović.

Neka je djedovska hiža Širom otvorena Posvunoć i Povazdan Za onog što davno je već pošao I sada po tmuši gazi Veoma trudan Iz daleka Al zna da stići će jednom budan Tamo gdje Nekto ga Čeka ...

May the house of our elders Be wide open All night and All day For those who left long ago And now walk in darkness Toiling From Afar Knowing that once they will reach awake The place where Somebody Awaits Them ...

Mak Dizdar ‘The House in Mile’

Ideja Makove hiže nastala je 2006. godine, za vrijeme priprema za obilježavanje devedesete godišnjice rođenja Maka Dizdara. Tada je odlučeno da se – u skladu sa skromnim sredstvima koja su bila na raspolaganju – otkupi jedan stari, urušeni, tipično hercegovački stambeni kompleks i postepeno krene u realizaciju sna o Makovoj hiži.

U procesu restauracije korišteni su, u najvećoj mogućoj mjeri, lokalni materijali i tehnike, i zaposleni lokalni radnici.

Na taj način, Makova hiža postala je i svojevrsni muzej stolačkog, hercegovačkog načina življenja i bivanja.

Pored stalne postavke, Hiža je služila i služiće i kao mjesto održavanja izložbi, koncerata, poetskih večeri, promocija knjiga i raznih formalnih i neformalnih susreta pisaca, umjetnika, naučnika i drugih putnika namjernika.

Stolački dom

A Stolac Home The vision of The Mak House emerged in 2006, during the preparations for the ninetieth anniversary of Mak Dizdar’s birth. It was decided - in accordance with the limited means that were available - to buy an old, ruined, typically Herzegovinian residential ensemble and gradually start the realization of the dream of The Mak House. During the restoration process, to the extent that it was possible, local workers were hired and local materials and techniques were used. In that way, The Mak House has also become a museum of the Stolac, Herzegovinian, way of living and being.

Besides the permanent exhibition, the house has served and will serve as a venue for art exhibitions, concerts, poetry evenings, book promotions and different formal and informal meetings of writers, artists, scholars and travelers.
