Er Srbija » Air Serbia | 5 Reč dobrodošlice Welcomemessage NAPRVI POGLEDNAŠAULOGA JE da svakodnevno prevozimo ljude i transportujemo robu na različite destinacije. Međutim, mi u Er Srbiji verujemo da radimomnogo više od toga. Mi gradimomostove koji spajaju prijatelje, članove porodica i poslovne saradnike kojima se stvaraju nova prijateljstva. Približavamo različite kulture, povezujemo države i ekonomije kroz našumrežu. Čineći sve to, trudimo se da svet učinimo boljimmestom. Želimo da ostavimo trag, ali da smanjimo karbonski otisak. Održivost, zaštita prirodnih resursa, briga o široj društvenoj zajednici, kao i bezbednost i dobrobit naših putnika i zaposlenih utkani su u svaki segment poslovanja Er Srbije. Fokusirani smo na redukciju emisije gasova koji stvaraju efekat staklene bašte i na poboljšanje uticaja na životnu sredinu. To postižemo unapređivanjemoperacija, uvođenjem inicijativa za recikliranje, angažovanjemnaših zaposlenih, radomsa institucijama Vlade Srbije, optimizacijompilotskih procedura, promenama u zemaljskimpripremama za let, usmeravanjemprocedura održavanja, kao i smanjenjem težine aviona i svega što ulazi u avion. Ukoliko ste zainteresovani, o tome postoji posebna stranica na našemsajtu. Tokomproteklih 12meseci uspeli smo da emisiju ugljen-dioksida smanjimo za gotovo 3.000 tona. Pratimo i merimo postignute rezultate i uvek se trudimo da učinimo više zato što i najsitnija poboljšanja prave razliku. Želimda naglasim– zajedno smo jači; ostvarujemo bolje rezultate kada radimo zajedno. Kada svako pruža svoj doprinos, postižu se najbolji rezultati. Možda ste primetili da jemagazin sada u smanjenom formatu i na izmenjenoj vrsti papira. Ništa revolucionarno, ali ipak ćemo zahvaljujući toj maloj promeni doprineti smanjenju emisije ugljen-dioksida za 14 tona na godišnjemnivou. Pozivam i vas da svakodnevno činitemale korake da bismo našu kuću sačuvali za buduće generacije. Kad god imate priliku, koristite stepenice umesto lifta i bicikl umesto automobila; ne ostavljajte vodu da teče dok perete zube; gasite svetlo kada niste u prostoriji; reciklirajte, jer svaka tona recikliranog papira spasava 17 stabala. Budimo odgovorni jer zajedno možemo sve! Jedna od destinacija na kojimamožete zaista da uživate u prirodi jeOslo, naša najnovija destinacija u Skandinaviji. Umagazinumožete da se upoznate sa prirodnim lepotama i fenomenimaNorveške – glečerima, slapovima, fjordovima... Verujemda će nasmoćne i uzvišene, a ipak tihe i spokojne snaga i lepota prirode još jednompodsetiti na to koliko je važno da ih čuvamo! Uživajte u letu i srećan put. AT AGLANCE, OUR TASK IS to transport people and goods to different destinations around theworld every day. However, we at Air Serbia believe that we do somuchmore than that. We build bridges that connect friends, familymembers and business associates, andwhich create new friends. We bring different cultures closer together, linking countries and connecting economies through our network. And in doing this we strive tomake theworld a better place. Wewant to leave our mark, but to reduce our carbon footprint. Sustainability, the protection of natural resources and care for the broader community, aswell as the safety andwell-being of our passengers and employees, are firmly embedded in theDNA of Air Serbia’s operations. We are focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving our environmental impact. Andwe deliver on this through improvements to our operations, through the introducing of recycling initiatives, engaging our employees, cooperatingwith government institutions, optimising pilot procedures, modifying ground preparations for flights, streamingmaintenance procedures and reducing theweight of aircraft and everythingwe place aboard aircraft. If you are interested, we have a dedicated section on our official website. We havemanaged to reduce our carbon-dioxide emissions by almost three thousand tonnes over last 12months. Wemonitor andmeasure the results achieved, andwe always strive to domore, because even the slightest improvementsmake a difference. I would like to emphasise that we are stronger together; that we deliver morewhenwework together. When everyone contributes, the best results are achieved. Youmay have noticed that thismagazine is nowsmaller, with a different type of paper. That’s nothing revolutionary, but we are helping to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions by 14 tonnes annuallywith this small change. I invite you to take small steps every day, so that we can preserve our home for future generations. Whenever you have the opportunity, use stairs instead of lifts, ride a bicycle instead of driving a car; don‘t leavewater runningwhile you brush your teeth; turn the lights offwhen you leave a room; recycle, because every tonne of recycled paper saves 17 trees. Be responsible, becausewe can do everything together! One destinationwhere you can truly appreciate nature is Oslo, our latest destination in Scandinavia. Youwill see the natural wonders and phenomena of Norway later in thismagazine – glaciers, waterfalls, fjords... I believe that the awesome andmighty, yet silent and calm, power and beauty of naturewill again remind us of how important it is to protect it! Enjoy your flight and have a good trip.

14 | Er Srbija » Air Serbia NASLEĐE HER I TAGE 1928. Na krilima poteza 29-2 Prvi avioni Aeroputa stigli su na Vazdušno pristanište Beograd početkom februara 1928. godine. Uprava Aeroputa je od francuske kompanije kupila četiri aviona dvokrilca tipa potez 29/2. Bio je to više nego solidan putnički avion za to vreme, sa dva člana posade i sedištima za još pet putnika. Francuski jednomotorni putnički dvokrilac drvene konstrukcije proizvodila je firma Aeroplani Anri Potez dvadesetih godina 20. veka. Prototip je poleteo početkom 1927. godine, a prvi primerci isporučeni su korisnicima 1928. Proizvodnja ovog aviona trajala je do 1931. godine. U Aeroputu je ovaj avion imao oznaku potez 29-2 i leteo je do početka 1937. Njime je u to vreme otvorena prva domaća linija vazdušnog saobraćaja između Beograda i Zagreba. ON THEWINGS OF POTEZ 29 2 Aeroput’s first planes arrived at the Belgrade Airport in early February 1928. Aeroput’s management bought four “Potez 29/2” type biplanes from a French company. It was a more than capable passenger plane for the period, with two crew members and seating for another five passengers. This French single-engine passenger biplane with a wooden structure was produced by company Avions Henri Potez in the 1920s. The prototype was launched in early 1927, with the first finished products delivered to customers in 1928. Production of this aircraft continued until 1931. At Aeroput this plane carried the mark Potez 29-2 and flew until the beginning of 1937. It established the first domestic air transport route between Belgrade and Zagreb at that time. Maksimalna brzina – 219 km/h Putna brzina – 185 km/h Najveći dolet – 500 km Plafon leta – 4.500m Maximum speed - 219 km/h Cruising speed - 185 km/h Maximum range - 500 km Flight ceiling - 4500 m

Reč je o pešačkoj stazi dužine više od četiri kilometra, kreirane tako da promoviše istorijski centar grada i omogući socijalno distanciranje za pešake. Tako će područja Plake i poznatog trgovačkog trougla, kao i ulice Atinas, Ermu, Herodu Atiku i Mitropoleos u okviru projekta biti pretvorene u pešačke zone. Takođe, u izradi je i nova biciklistička staza, koja će pratiti pešačku. ATHENS GREAT WALK The Athens city authorities have approved its “Great Walk” project, which will see the capital of Greece gain a large promenade. This pedestrian walkway is longer than four kilometres and is being created in such a way as to promote the historical centre of the city and enable social distancing for pedestrians. Thus, the neighbourhood of Plaka and the famous shopping triangle, as well as the streets of Athinas, Ermou, Herodou Attikou and Mitropoleos, will be converted into pedestrian zones under the scope of the project. Moreover, a new bicycle lane is also being built that will follow the course of the pedestrian zone.

Air Serbia » Er Srbija | 23 NJUJORK NEWYORK Igraće se US Open Otvoreno prvenstvo Amerike definitivno će se održati prema planu od 31. avgusta do 13. septembra, saopštio je Endru Kuomo, guverner države Njujork. Turnir će se održati pod posebnim uslovima, a u ovom trenutku nije poznato da li će na US Openu igrati Novak Đoković i Rafael Nadal. Neizvesno je i učešće Rodžera Federera, koji je ove godine čak dva puta operisao koleno. Ipak, organizatori su odlučni da održe turnir jer veruju da će biti od koristi i njima, i teniserima, i kompletnomteniskomsvetu. U.S. OPEN TO BE PLAYED Tennis’s U.S. Open will definitely be held according to plan, from 31st August to 13th September, according to an announcement given by Andrew Cuomo, governor of the state of New York. The tournament will be held under special conditions and at present it’s unknown whether Novak Đoković and Rafael Nadal will compete. Also in question is the participation of Roger Federer, who underwent knee surgery twice this year. However, the organisers are determined to hold the tournament because they believe it will benefit them, the tennis players and the entire tennis world. NIRNBERG NUREMBERG Čari Carske tvrđave Kao drugi najveći grad u Bavarskoj, Nirnberg često ostaje u senci Minhena, ali i te kako ima šta da ponudi posetiocima. Malo je poznato da od svih nemačkih velikih gradova ima najviše muzeja po glavi stanovnika, a tačka sa koje se pogledom grli ceo grad je Carska tvrđava. Deo je zamka Kajzerburg, smeštenog na brdu, koji predstavlja simbol grada još od srednjeg veka. Turisti se uglavnom zadržavaju na zidinama zamka i uživaju u pogledu, iako imaju mogućnost da posete rezidencijalnu carsku palatu, kapelu i toranj. CHARMS OF THE IMPERIAL CASTLE As the second largest city in Bavaria, Nuremberg often remains in Munich’s shadow, but it also has plenty to offer visitors. It isn’t common knowledge that it has the most museums per capita of all major German cities, and the point from which views embrace the entire city is the Imperial Castle. Part of the Kaiserburg fortress located on a hilltop, it has represented a symbol of the city since the Middle Ages. The majority of tourists usually stay on the castle walls and enjoy the views, although they can take advantage of the available tour of the residential imperial castle, chapel and tower. SALCBURG SALZBURG Dvorac koji je inspirisao Mocarta Na svakom koraku ovde možete videti bisere arhitekture u baroknom stilu, a jedan od njih je svakako dvorac Mirabel, koji karakterišu predivni vrtovi, fontane i statue rimskih i grčkih bogova. Vrtovi Mirabela su biser hortikulture i turisti uživaju u šetnji predivnim ambijentom u kojem se tokom letnjih meseci često organizuju koncerti. Najlepša prostorija u dvorcu je Mermerna dvorana, a zanimljivo je da žitelji Salcburga ponosno ističu da su cvetni parkovi tog dvorca inspirisali Mocarta da komponuje Čarobnu frulu. PALACE THAT INSPIRED MOZART At every step here you can see gems of Baroque style architecture, amongst which is certainly Mirabell Palace, characterised by its beautiful gardens, fountains and statues of Roman and Greek gods. Mirabell Gardens are a pearl of horticulture and tourists enjoy strolling in the beautiful ambience, where concerts are often organised during the summer months. The most beautiful space in the palace is the Marble Hall, while it is also interesting that natives of Salzburg proudly note that the floral parks of this palace even inspired Mozart to compose his opera The Magic Flute.

24 | Beograd » Belgrade Kultura Culture Beograd Belgrade I Z MOG UGL A ZOR AN KUZMANOV I Ć, VA JAR Pobednik para beogradsko nebo Brojni su razlozi zbog kojih je Pobednik toliko važan. Osim neosporne umetničke majstorije Ivana Meštrovića i povoda zbog kojeg je poručen kao simbol slobode nakon viševekovnog ropstva, presudan momenat bilo je pozicioniranje na visokom stubu na Kalemegdanu Da je skulptura bila postavljena na Terazijama, kako je prvobitno bilo planirano, možda ne bi bila toliko upečatljiva. Nalazila bi se između visokih zgrada, konkurentnih formi gradskog ambijenta. Međutim, njenim postavljanjem na Kalemegdanu, na horizontu između zemlje i neba, samim načinom na koji je postavljena, a koji potencira vertikalnost, učinjeno je da jednostavno na toj poziciji para nebo, deluje antigravitaciono. To što je sagledavamo iz velike udaljenosti i naročito zbog načina na koji je Meštrović stilizovao samu formu skulpture, učinilo je da postane simbol i prepoznatljivi znak Beograda. Radovi koji su izvršeni na površini forme skulpture krajem prošle i početkom ove godine povezani su isključivo sa dugoročnimočuvanjemspomenika. Apsolutno nikakvih intervencija nije bilo na samoj formi skulpture, osim na mestima koja su imala mehanička oštećenja. Odgovornost je sigurno bila velika, iako imam više od 20 godina iskustva u radu sa bronzom i poznajem dobro tehnološke procese u vezi sa njom. Posao jeste bio veliki izazov, ali nijednog trenutka nisam osetio strah da neću moći da ga uradim jer i sam u svom umetničkom radu najviše koristimbronzu, koja je tradicionalanmaterijal. Bronza je od samog početka prepoznata kao materijal koji se koristi i u svetovne i u sakralne svrhe. U umetnosti je upravo najčešće korišćena u gurativnoj skulpturi, u predstavljanu ljudskog tela.

Belgrade » Beograd | 25 Sivi soko na levoj ruci Pobednika govori o budnosti, on pazi da se neprijatelj ponovo ne pojavi, dok mač u desnoj ruci simbolizuje novu pobedu The grey hawk on the Victor’s left hand speaks of vigilance, with himmaking sure that the enemy does not reappear, while the sword in his right hand symbolises a new victory Ko je Zoran Kuzmanović Jedan je od najznačajnijih vajara u bronzi. Rođen je 1967. u Smederevu. Diplomirao je na FLU u Beogradu 1993, a završio je magistarske studije 2002. Osnivač je i rukovodilac Radionice za skulpturu Kuzman, koja postoji od 2003, a umetnički saradnik na FLU u Beogradu bio je od 2010. do 2015. godine. Doktorirao je na Umetničkim studijama Univerziteta umetnosti u Beogradu 2014. Njegove skulpture i vajarski radovi nalaze se u mnogim gradovima regiona. Osim Pobednika na Kalemegdanu, obnovio je skulpture Žetelica u Topčiderskom parku, Dečak sa krčagom na Čukur-česmi, spomenik Sloboda na Iriškom vencu, Spomenik zahvalnosti Francuskoj na Kalemegdanu i mnoge druge. WHO IS ZORAN KUZMANOVIĆ One of the most important sculptors working in bronze, he was born in Smederevo in 1967. He graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade in 1993 and completed his master‘s studies in 2002. He is the founder and, since 2003, the head of the “Kuzman SculptureWorkshop”, while he was also an artistic associate at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Belgrade from 2010 to 2015. He received his Ph.D. from the Art Studies of the University of Arts in Belgrade in 2014. His sculptures and sculpture works can be found in many cities of the region. Apart from the Victor monument in Kalemegdan, he also renewed the Reaper sculpture in Topčider Park, The Boy with a Pitcher on the Čukur fountain, the Freedommonument on IrigWreath, Kalemegdan‘s Gratitude to France monument and many others. Pobednik u ateljeu Zorana Kuzmaovića The Victor in Zoran Kuzmanovic’s studio F ROM MY P E RSP ECT I VE ZOR AN KUZMANOV I Ć , SCU L P TOR The Victor breaks up the Belgrade sky There are many reasons why the Victor monument is so important. Apart from the indisputable artistic mastery of Ivan Meštrović and the reason why it was ordered - as a symbol of freedom after centuries of slavery - the crucial moment was its positioning on a high pillar in Kalemegdan Fortress. Had the sculpture been placed on Terazije, as was originally planned, it perhaps wouldn‘t have been so impressive. Itwould be located between tall buildings, competitive forms of urban ambience. However, its placement in Kalemegdan Fortress, on the horizon between earth and sky, with the very way in which it was placed, and which emphasises it verticality, ensured that it simply breaks apart the sky in that position, acting like antigravity. e fact that we view it from a great distance, and particularly due to the way in which Meštrović stylised the very form of the sculpture, ensured that it simply became a symbol and a recognisable sign of Belgrade. e works undertaken at the end of last year and the beginning of this year on the surface forms of the sculpture are related exclusively to the longterm preservation of the monument. ere were absolutely no interventions on the form of the sculpture itself, except inplaces that had sustained mechanical damage. e responsibility was certainly great, even though I have more than 20 years of experience working with bronze and am very familiar with the related technological processes. e job was certainly a great challenge, but at no point did I fear that I wouldn‘t be able to do it, because in my own artistic work I mostly use bronze, which is a traditional material. Bronze has been recognised since the very beginning as amaterial that‘s used for both secular and sacral purposes. In art it is the most commonly used material in figurative sculpture, in representations of the human body. ere were several parallel jobs to do on the Victor sculpture, with the primary one being solving statics. We estimated that the monument is statically risky and that it could even collapse if hit by a stronger wind. e sculpture is four metres and 20 cen- Mitar Mitrović Snežana Krstić
26 | Beograd » Belgrade BEOGRAD BELGRADE Na skulpturi Pobednika bilo je nekoliko paralelnih poslova, a primarno je bilo rešavanje statike. Procenili smo da je spomenik statički rizičan i da bi pri jačem udaru vetra mogao čak i da se sruši. Skulptura je visoka četiri metra i 20 centimetara, teška oko tonu, a sada, sa dodatom konstrukcijomod 400 do 500 kilograma, ima oko tonu i po. Vodili smo računa da obezbedimo statikukoja će joj dati najveći stepen sigurnosti. Cela forma je sada konsolidovana, a podkonstrukcija iznutra učvršćena. Pobednik je, inače, izliven u Češkoj i odlivak je značajno bolji od Spomenika zahvalnosti Francuskoj, na čijoj sam rekonstrukciji takođe radio. Što se tiče oštećenja na samom Pobedniku, oštećen je zbog popuštanja veze u postolju i zbog u originalu tanko livene plinte na kojoj su gvozdenim šrafovima bila pričvršćena stopala skulpture. Spomenik je, takođe, imao i više od 30 rupa od metaka. Statika je, dakle, bila jedan deo posla, a sanacija rupa drugi. Rupe su zatvarane materijalima sa istim ili sličnim hemijskim sastavom, a treba reći i da od postavljanja spomenika 1928. na njemu nije bilo značajnih intervencija ovog tipa. Ivan Meštrović je rad na spomeniku počeo 1913, a radio ga je osam meseci. Vajao je i oblikovao skulpturu u skulturnoj sali osnovne škole u Ulici kralja Petra Prvog u Beogradu. Na sreću, spomenik je izbegao uništenje za vreme Prvog svetskog rata jer je pred sam početak bio poslat u Austrougarsku, u Češku, na livenje, gde je ostao do kraja rata. Pobednik predstavlja oslobođenje, pobedu nad feudalizmom, ropstvom, dok njegova nagost simbolizuje ulazak u renesansu. Sivi soko na levoj ruci govori o budnosti, on pazi da se neprijatelj ponovo ne pojavi, dok mač u desnoj ruci simbolizuje novu pobedu. Spomenik je svečano otkriven 1928. godine, za vreme proslave desetogodišnjice proboja Solunskog fronta i srpske pobede u ratovima od 1912. do 1918. Radio sammnogo različitih poslova u vezi sa skulpturama i restauracijom, ali svakako bih svoj rad na Pobedniku izdvojio kao veoma važan i nekako najvidljiviji. Stoga sam veoma ponosan na to. Pobednik je skulptura koja je u svakom vremenu izazivala ogromnu pažnju. Kako u vremenu u kojem je nastao, tako i početkomove godine, kada je završena njegova rekonstrukcija umomateljeu u Smederevu
Belgrade » Beograd | 27 The Victor is a sculpture that has attracted great attention at all times – both at the time when it was created and at the beginning of this year, when its reconstruction was completed at my studio in Smederevo Kultura Culture timetres high and weighs about a tonne, and now – with the additional construction of 400 to 500 kilograms, it weighs about 1.5 tonnes. We took care to provide statics that would give it the highest degree of security. e entire form is now consolidated and the substructure has been strengthened internally. Interestingly, the Victor was cast in the Czech Republic, and the casting is significantly better than the Monument of Gratitude to France, the reconstruction of which I also worked on. When it comes to the damage to the Victor itself, it was damaged due to the loosening of the links in the pedestal and due to the thin cast iron plinth of the original, to which the feet of the sculpture were fastened using iron screws. e monument also had more than 30 bullet holes. us, statics were one part of the job, while repairing the holes was another. e holes were closed using materials with the same or a similar chemical composition, and it should be said that since the erection of the monument in1928 it hasnot been subjected to significant interventions of this type. IvanMeštrović started working on the monument in 1913, working on it for eightmonths. He sculpted and shaped the sculpture in the sports hall of the primary school in Kralja Petra I Street in Belgrade. Fortunately, the monument escaped being destroyed duringWorldWar I, because prior to the outbreak of war it was sent to Austria-Hungary, to the Czech Republic for casting, where it remained until the end of the war. e Victor represents liberation, victory over feudalism, slavery, while his very nakedness symbolises the entry into the Renaissance. e grey hawk on his left hand speaks of vigilance, with him making sure that the enemy does not reappear, while the sword in his right hand symbolises a new victory. e monument was ceremoniously unveiled in 1928, during the time of celebrations commemorating the tenth anniversary of the breakthrough on the essaloniki Front and Serbia‘s victory in the wars that raged from 1912 to 1918. I‘ve done many different jobs related to sculpture and restoration, but I would certainly single out my work on the Victor sculpture as being very important and somehow the most visible, and that‘s why I‘m very proud of that.

Takođe je zovem Lajonet, zato što kada se naljuti, reži kao lav“. Tako je Dali voleo svoju suprugu – ludački, opsesivno, do bola, do smrti, opraštajući joj sve, idealizujući je, poklanjajući joj dušu, telo, nebesa i carstva... KULTURA CULTURE
Love story » Ljubavna priča | 29 Preskočićemo dosadne uvode i biografske podatke, svako ko voli i ceni rad legendarnog Dalija, zna ih, makar u načelu. Ljubavna pričaDalijevog života, njegova istinita bajka, to je jedna odnajbizarnijih, najinteresantnijih i najljubavnijih ljubavi 20. veka. Ko je bila Gala? Gala jezapravobilaElenaIvanovnaDijakonova,prelepaRuskinja izKazanja, tajanstvena, strastvena i intuitivna žena, atraktivnadama samaslinastomkožomi crnim očima, omiljena u krugovima intelektualne elite. Umela je da namiriše kreativnog genija na kilometar, rado je provodila sate i dane sa njima, šarmirala ih i inspirisala. Gala je uplovila u bračne vode sa francuskim pesnikom PolomElijarom, sa kojim je dobila i ćerku Sesil, ali umesto mirne luke, za nju je ta veza predstavljala samo kartu za poznanstva sa najvećimumetnicima tog vremena. Aonda je srela25-godišnjeg SalvadoraDalija, sasvimneobičnog, ekscentričnog i čitavu deceniju mlađeg od nje. Susret kao udar groma Dali je u svomdnevniku opisao taj prvi trenutak, taj eksplozivni susret koji je odredio njihove živote i obojio ih ludilom, uspehom i strašću. „Ona je suđena da bude moja Gradiva (junakinja iz romana V. Jensena), ona kojame gura napred, moja pobeda, moja žena“, napisao je on. I zaista, od tada pa do same smrti Gala je bila Dalijeva do srži, do kostiju, ona je bila izbor njegovog života i neophodnost –kaovazduh ili hrana. Za Salvadora je poznanstvo sa Galom bilo kao udar groma–ona se tačnouklapalau slikunepoznate, elegantneženekojaga ječestoproganjalausnovima. Pričakazuje kako se legendarni slikar, prenego što je krenuona sastanaksa lepomRuskinjom,namazaosopstvenomkrvlju, pocepaoodeću i premazao se odvratnimribljimlepkom. To je bio trenutak slabosti i ludila i to je opisivalo kako sam se osećao pre nego što sam upoznao Galu. Da, ja sam bio potpuno lud pre nje, moj mozak je bio blizu mozga jednog patološkog bolesnika. Ona je odmog života stvorila pravi misticizam i pravi klasicizam, rekao je Španac u jednom intervjuu. Ljubav kao centar univerzuma Za Dalija je Gala bila nepresušna i večna inspiracija, tajni sastojak poleta i sreće u njegovom životu. O tome kolika je bila njegova ljubav, svedoči i podatak da su svi ženski likovi naDalijevimslikama inspirisani upravo njom, a većinu svojih slika potpisao je saGala – Salvador Dali.Ona sepostavilakaonjegovverni pratilac, saveznik i prijatelj, kao i dobar organizator, sjajanasistent i zastupnik, zapravo jednavrstamenadžera.Njegovuumetnost je pretvorila umašineriju za zgrtanjenovca i u trci za bogatstvom bila je lukava, predana i direktna – nikada se nije stidela da traži još novca za dela svog muža. Često mu je čitala dok je slikao, ali mu i govorila šta da slika, koje boje da koristi i koje greške da ispravi. SALVADOR AND GALA LOVE ENDURING HALF A CENTURY Howstrongly the crazy genius loved “I name my wife: Gala, Galushka, Gradiva; Oliva, for the oval shape of her face and the colour of her skin... I also call her Lionette, because when she gets angry she roars like the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer lion.” This is howDalí loved his wife – madly, obsessively, through pain, to death, forgiving everything she did, idolising her, giving her soul, body, heavens and kingdoms...
