The Reason for Blog

Many times during the last year and a half since I created Byzantine Sacred Art web site I wished I could add a quick comment in response to some of the most frequent questions I was receiving through emails, or introduce articles that would relate to current issues, mostly regarding Balkan politics and Serbia in particular. This is not only time consuming (making whole new static html web pages), but also very difficult to incorporate in a web site dedicated primarily to Orthodox iconography, without making a complete chaos of dozens of different, faintly related subjects.

Connecting a blog, which contains a number of various categories on its own and can be quickly and easily updated, to the site seemed a perfect solution. This small section of the web site also allows me some more room to speak about broader subjects of art and design, and offer a view from another angle, the Orthodox one, on current events as they unfold. Another great advantage is that blog opens communication lines and allows visitors to exchange views directly, rather then through private emails. So, feel free to join in and visit these pages from time to time for updates.
