Verified by the Dayton Peace Agreement in 1995, the country emerged as a dynamic laboratory for global diplomacy efforts and a variety of social experiments. In that context the question of borders has been a focal point for diverse artistic research. Artists are using state-, regional-, cantonal- or mental borders as an artistic element loaded with various meanings. The spectrum of interpretation of that artistic vocabulary spans from narration to fiction. In the Bosnian case, border has been perceived as isolation, division, enslavement, insecurity, threat and conflict. This presentation examines artworks made by Lana \u010cmaj\u010danin, Gordana An\u0111eli\u0107 Gali\u0107, Lovro Artukovi\u0107, Maja Bajevi\u0107, Nermin Durakovi\u0107 and some others.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Irfan Ho\u0161i\u0107<\/strong> is Associate Professor of art history at the University of Biha\u0107 and founder of the KRAK Center for Contemporary Culture.
