Ovakva vrsta saradnje Vojske Srbije sa požarevačkim kulturnim ustanovama nastavljena je današnjim otvaranjem izložbe slika iz Spomen zbirke Miodraga Markovića. Obeležavajući dva veka Vojske u Braničevu, naša ustanova će naredne godine, uz pomoć autora Jasmine Nikolić, direktorke požarevačkog Istorijskog arhiva i pukovnika Milivoja Pajovića načelnika Uprave za odnose sa javnošću i bivšeg komandanta Garnizona u Požarevcu, objaviti knjigu posvećenu ovom velikom jubileju, naglasio je potpukovnik Marković.

Grad Požarevac se legatoru Miodragu Markoviću, odužio tako što je ulicu u kojoj se nalazila njegova kuća, nazvao njegovim imenom. U skladu sa Markovićevom željom i ugovorom sklopljenim sa porodicom, 1982. godine svečano je u Požarevcu otvorena Galerija spomen zbirke Miodraga Markovića.

– Bilo da se nalazimo na dužnosti generalnog konzula Jugoslavije u NJujorku, diplomatskim misijama ili na dužnosti šefa protokola Saveznog sekretarijata za inostrane poslove, Miodrag Marković nikada nije zaboravljao rodni Požarevac. Kroz kataloški prikaz slika i njihovih autora i prezentaciju vrednosti i značaja kolekcije ovih umetničkih dela, odajemo zahvalnost legatoru grada, istakao je gradonačelnik Požarevca Miomir Ilić, koji je zvanično i otvorio izložbu.

Miodrag Marković rođen je 1897. godine. Nakon završetka Prvog svetskog rata, školovao se u Nici, Remsu i Londonu. Preminuo je 1969. godine u Opatiji a sahranjen u Beogradu. Kako je u svom obraćanju istakla autorka izložbe, kustos požarevačkog Narodnog muzeja Violeta Tomić, visoko obrazovanje, istančan ukus, rad i druženje u diplomatskim predstavništvima širom sveta, kod Miodraga Markovića stvorili su ogromnu ljubav prema umetnosti, posebno prema slikarstvu. Držeći se sa slikarima, on je strpljivo i prefinjeno stvarao umetničku zbirku, koju je pri kraju svog života poklonio Požarevcu.

– Kao kolekcionar, Miodrag Marković se opredelio za najznačajniji period u razvoju naše moderne umetnosti-za vreme između dva svetska rata. To je razdoblje kada srpsko slikarstvo dostiže najviše estetske kvalitete i kada stvara svoje remek dela. Autori zastupljeni u ovoj zbirci pripadaju različitim pravcima i poetikama. Posebnu vrednost daju portreti donatora Miodraga Markovića, među kojima se nalaze radovi Mihajla Petrova, Mila Milunovića i Vase Pomorišca. Darujući ovu zbirku svom rodnom gradu, Marković nas je podsetio na večitu istinu da umetnostpredstavlja dušu jednog naroda, neizbrisiv beleg njegovog postojanja i svetionik na neizvesnom putu u budućnost, napomenula je autorka.

Pored brojnih ljubitelja slikarske umetnosti iz Požarevca i Beograda, direktora Milorada Đorđevića i ostalih zaposlenih u Narodnom muzeju Požarevac u okviru koga se nalazi legat, otvaranju izložbe prisustvovali su sin darodavca Ivan Marković i Gordan Pomorišac, sin velikog srpskog umetnika Vase Pomorišca. Izložba je otvorena do 29. decembra.
