CALL TO ME, BALKANS is a collection of intimate photographic impressions from American documentary photographer and educator Bruce Strong, whose 2023 sabbatical and term as a visiting scholar with the VII Academy in Sarajevo launched him and his camera into the\u00a0<\/span><\/span>rich, diverse and long-interconnected Balkan cultures of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia and Slovenia. With an emphasis on Sarajevo and timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the end of the Bosnian\u00a0<\/span><\/span>War, this exhibit is the result of Strong\u2019s search for an updated understanding of a place where resilience and grace thrive against a complex historical backdrop of conflict and reconciliation.<\/span><\/p>\n
