Exhibit to feature work of Bosnian artist
An exhibit of work by Endi Poskovic, an instructor of art at UB, will
be on view Nov. 12-March 19 in the Burchfield-Penney Art Center.
	Titled "Europa Series -- Alter Crux III," Poskovic's
site-specific installation includes painting, lithographs and found
objects placed in alcoves and on the walls, each serving as a distinct
gathering place or altar.
	A native of Bosnia, Poskovic's installation deals with the
impact of religious ideologies on his heritage, as well as other
cultures of the world. He uses symbols of the four religions of his
homeland -- Islam, Orthodox Christianity, Roman Catholicism and
Judaism -- juxtaposed with architectural fragments to underscore the
ideas of coexistence and diversity.
	Poskovic studied at the School of Applied Arts and the Academy
of Fine Arts in Sarajevo and at Nordmore Folke Hogh Skole in Surnadal,
Norway. He received his M.F.A. from UB in 1993.
