Summary:

Of course, ideas can only do so much for an art show, and it's the paintings themselves, rather than what they represent, that Milidrag would probably want to engage most viewers.

In the end, though, Milidrag is most interested in being a painter and observer -- an artist -- rather than being a social commentator who provides some definitive essay on the war. The war itself only forms the backdrop, and in this case it's the paintings themselves that are the main attraction.

Milidrag's work isn't necessarily designed to answer questions for the viewer. Like all good art, it intends to lead you to the questions, force you to face them, and then answer them for yourself.
