Crystal Facets of Serenity: Ljerka Njerš

Joško Belamarić

Abstract

The author graduated (1960) from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb in the class of sensitive colourist Marino Tartaglia. She expressed her painter’s métier in a traditional way through painting on canvas and paper, however she affirmed her creative identity in the painting of ceramics, porcelain, enamel and glass. The author’s works of art often have utilitarian characteristics (platters, vases, bowls), and so historical-art criticism places them within the applied arts. However, in the core of the author’s morphology, these are only planes of free forms whose plasticity contributes to the core of her artistic form of expression.
