Abstract

Daniel Ozmo rođen je 14. marta 1912. godine u Olovu, u siromašnoj jevrejskoj porodici Haima i Lenke Ozmo, u kojoj je pored Daniela bilo još sedmoro dece. U Sarajevu Daniel završava osnovnu školu i pet razreda gimnazije, pa se poslije pauze od dvije ili tri godine, izazvane nepovoljnim materijalnim uslovima, upisuje na Umetničku školu u Beogradu, gdje studira slikarstvo, u klasi profesora Ljube Ivanovića, od 1930. do 1934. godine. Daniel Ozmo, istaknuti sarajevski umetnik, antifašistički borac i patriota, umoren je 1942. godine u ustaškom zatočeničkom logoru Jasenovac, gdje je prije smrti, raspoređen na prisilni rad u takozvanu keramičku radionicu, uspio da napravi ciklus crteža iz zatvoreničkog života.
