February 2, 2025

Aneta Georgievska Shine, a distinguished scholar with an Honours degree in Humanities and a Faculty Fellow at the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Maryland presented "Beauty and Art in Our CHurches." Professor Georgievska Shine has an impressive academic background, with co-authored books on Rubens and numerous articles on Northern European, Italian, and Spanish artists published in esteemed academic journals. Her latest publication, Vermeer and the Art of Love (2022), has been widely acclaimed. In this session, Professor Georgievska Shine shared her extensive knowledge of Macedonian iconographers, focusing on Dimitar Krstev Dichov, widely known as Dicho Zograf. Dicho Zograf, one of the most exceptional 19th-century artists in the Balkans,was born in 1819 in the mountain village of Tresonce, then a part of the Ottoman Empire. He is renowned for his work in the Byzantine tradition of icon and fresco painting and was a pivotal figure in the Debar School of painting. Professor Georgievska Shine guided us through Zograf’s life, his contributions as an iconographer, and the current state of some of his most significant works. This event delved into the stories behind the art that graces our churches, revealing the rich history and spirituality conveyed through icons and iconostases. We were also honoured to have Georgi Danevski in the audience who, has painted many of our churches in Canada. Macedonian Orthodox Christian art has and continues to have, a profound cultural and religious significance not only to Macedonians but also, Christianity world wide.
