European Resistance Archive/European Resistance Archive (ERA)
-
I had to change homes several times because I’d sneeze in the room I was hiding in.
-
Someone outside would happen to hear it and comment that someone must be home.
-
Then I’d have to leave the next day or night.
-
I was staying with strangers when,
-
after four months of hiding from house to house,
-
that one afternoon my friend Neda Grzinic finally came to see me.
-
She told me that a LF courier would bring me a fake passport that evening
-
and I’d be leaving to join the partisans in the morning.

A Bicycle Becomes a Tricycle
-
It felt truly horrible to me that Ljubljana was surrounded by barbed wire,
-
because I’m incredibly attached to nature.
-
Especially now that I understand who I am as a painter.
-
Above all I’m a landscape painter, because it’s my world.
-
Before the war, I’d cycle out of Ljubljana to find some motif to draw and paint.
-
All of a sudden I wasn’t allowed to leave Ljubljana.
-
At first we received a sort of ‘lascia passare’,
-
some sort of legitimation paper, if you weren’t disliked by the occupying police.
-
Later they abolished it.
-
So as long as I still had the lascia passare, I’d cycle to the outskirts of Ljubljana.
-
Then they prohibited bicycles and I couldn’t go anywhere anymore.
