The melodic motive of the Romani anthem comes probably from the ancient song popular originally in Romania or Serbia during the 1st half of the 20th century. Sin the 1968 when the director Alexander Petrovič used its melody with the lyrics made by the Romani musician Jarko Jovanovič in the film with the Romani theme The Buyers of Feather (Skupljači peria, 1967, Yugoslavia), the song had became popular once more. The Romani musicians included the song into their repertoir and many times changed its lyrics (sometimes even melody and tempo) according to their own feeling.

created: 29. 05. 2015 08:06 modified: 27. 11. 2020 01:47
Short medallion of an outstanding Roma personality, a carver and sculptor Ondrej Gadžor. Ondrej Gadžor (9. 7. 1956 - 10/19/2013) - a native from Krásna nad Hornádom, he started carving when he was 24 years old. He works with different types of material - stone, even with horn or shells, but especially with wood. He developed a unique sculptural handwriting, influenced by the school of the academic sculptor Vojtech Löfller, in whose atelier he worked for eleven years. The subtle nature of small creation he managed to transfer into of monumental sized works made in sculptors' gatherings. His work is above the common works of non-professional sculptors. Abbreviations and abstraction reaches beyond normal folk art, and the final shape is somewhere between modern sculpture and African folk statues. His works' form is weightless, percepted as light and airy. His strengths are clean lines, he plays with wood and its structure, using them artfully in his works. Among the main themes stands a woman. He had several solo exhibitions, regularly attended sculpture open air events. He performed at several solo exhibitions at home and abroad. His works are exhibited, inter alia, also in Los Angeles, or the Vatican and many are part of the collections of museums in Slovakia and in the Czech Republic (East Slovak Museum in Košice, SNM-Museum of Roma Culture in Slovakia in Martin, Vojtech Löffler Museum in Košice Museum of Roma Culture in Brno).
