Excerpt from Exhibition of the Works of Ivan Mestrovic We heard that Ivan Mestrovi??? the sculptor, who, with the assistance of some Serbian associates and pupils, had designed and modelled the statuary, was still a young man in the early thirties, and that 'the pavilion, statuary and paintings were all the work of a body of young serbo-croat artists gathered from Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Dalmatia, to work together under the ag of Serbia and the leadership of Mestrovic - a national efi'ort inspired by a single fury of national memories and aspirations that is without parallel in modern art.
