Otvaranje i popularizacija: Muzej 25. maj i transformacija prostora Dedinja

Author(s): Aleksandar Ignjatović / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

The Museum of May 25 was erected at Dedinje in 1962 and it was the first public building in this, until then exclusive Belgrade neighborhood. As the center of the ritualization of the Day of Youth and spacing of the ideology of the Yugoslav socialism, the museum was just a part of an ambitiously designed whole. In ideological and performing cooperation with the Stadium of the Yugoslav People’s Army nearby, surrounding parks and free space, as well as with the residential complex where Josip Broz Tito lived, the Museum of May 25 was an extremely functional narrative of the new ideological matrix in the old area of Dedinje and Topčider marked by the removed seat of the ruler. However, despite the multiple connections to the traditional pattern of representing political power - concerning the topos, architecture and iconography – the Museum of May 25 re-marked the Dedinje and Topčider area and partly democratized them for the first time in history. After Tito’s death the process of opening and popularization of this area started losing its importance. However, during the last two decades, the new political and ideological context brought about not only the change of the name, the purpose and the importance of the museum compound, but also triggered off a reversible process of repeated closing and fencing-off of Dedinje. The area preserved and fortified the meaning of a removed ruler’s center and of representation of power, but notits populist and democratic character.

The Post-socialist City and the Revaluation of Public Space. Case Study Velenje

Author(s): Daniel Grünkranz / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This text discusses the revaluation of the public space of the so-called post-socialist city by the example of the town of Velenje. Velenje is located in the northeast of Slovenia and has 33.000 inhabitants. Once a small market place, belonging to the vast Habsburg Empire, Velenje became a major industrial hub after the Second World War and a regional economic centre of the newly founded Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. At the same time a new Velenje emerged. Today, after Slovenia's independence a quarter of a century ago, the town stands out as an example of modernist town planning of the socialist period in East and Southeast Europe. Velenje is currently promoted both as an important business location and as a tourist destination emphasising its heritage as a modernist model city. The transition from socialism to market economy has been accompanied by a revaluation of Velenje's modernist architecture and design of public space. This is evident in processes of aestheticisation and reorganisation. On the one hand, the built environment is now associated with a different system of meaning. On the other hand, parts of the public space of Velenje have been reorganised. The effective redesign and reprogramming of a vast pedestrian zone in the centre of the town serve the production of a different form of publicness in contradiction to the notions of the socialist period.

(Un)culture of Remembrance: The Role of Memorials and Commemorative Practices in Post-Conflict Social Recovery

Author(s): Tamara Banjeglav / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

In each post-conflict society which comes into existence and develops after traumatic events, such as wars and other forms of physical violence, there are attempts to suppress the memory of those events in order to “move on” and to “leave the past behind us”. However, memory is instinctive and cannot be suppressed just like that. It will, inevitably, occur, come to the surface in one form or another. For this reason, in an attempt to master the violent past, we are often faced with a challenge how to best use our memory with the aim of learning from past events so that they would never be repeated again.

(Ne)kultura sjećanja: uloga memorijala i komemorativnih praksi u post-konfliktnoj obnovi društva

Author(s): Tamara Banjeglav / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

U svakom post-konfliktnom društvu koje nastaje i razvija se nakon traumatičnih događaja, kao što su ratovi i drugi oblici nasilja, postoje pokušaji da se potisne sjećanje na te događaje kako bi se ‘krenulo dalje’ i kako bi se ‘prošlost ostavila iza nas’. Sjećanje je, međutim, instinktivno i ne može se samo tako potisnuti te će se neizbježno, ipak, pojaviti, isplivati na površinu, u jednom ili drugom obliku. Zbog toga smo, u pokušaju savladavanja nasilne prošlosti, često suočeni s izazovom kako najbolje upotiijebiti/iskoristiti sjećanje s ciljem učenja na prošlim događajima kako se oni više ne bi ponovili.

Procesuiranje kaznenih djela uništavanja kulturnih i povijesnih spomenika

Author(s): Marko Sjekavica / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Uništiti baštinu znači pokušati modificirati, falsificirati, osakatiti, odstraniti i, in ultima linea, ubiti identitet društvene grupe kojoj ona pripada. Raznolikost društvenih grupa reflektira se u mnogostrukosti njihovih identiteta. Identitet predstavlja dinamičnu i slojevitu kategoriju za koju vrijedi pravilo da različite situacije aktiviraju različite vrste i različite segmente identiteta. U toj dinamici društvenih odnosa, identiteti se međusobno sukobljavaju. Identiteti, a time i baština kojom se oni manifestiraju, postaju posebno ugroženi u revolucijama, ratovima, socijalnim previranjima i drugim promjenama težišta društvene moći. Iza sustavnog uništavanja baštine, obično stoji grupa s dovoljno jakom pozicijom moći, koja je u stanju nametnuti se kao dominantna i osigurati si legitimitet i legalitet svojih postupaka.

Muzeografija i historiografija bosanskohercegovačke umjetnosti u postsocijalističkom stanju krize

Author(s): Asja Mandić / Language(s): Bosnian,Croatian,Serbian Publication Year: 0

In the historiographical practice, museum has been viewed more and more as an institution which not only collects and exhibits evidence of historical knowledge, but acts as original contributor and actively participates in the construction of that knowledge. This paper examines the relationship between historiography and museography in the context of curating and writing history of art of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The crowning institution in this country, a paramount example of such relationship, is the Art Gallery of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which was founded by the socialist government of the People’s Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1946, right after WWII, as a mechanism for materialization of its authority and its powers and its conscious political didactic. Established as the most authoritative institution in the field of visual art, it regulated public sphere of art, and along with other museum institutions of the republic, it actively participated in the construction of its distinctive artistic tradition, its history as well as cultural identity. The gallery and is curators, engaged in systematic research, evaluation and presentation of Bosnian and Herzegovinian art, were actively involved in writing its history. The prominence of this institution and its exhibitions, especially the retrospective ones — that provided the curatorial representation of history and the first narratives on the development of modern art in Bosnia and Herzegovina — has been materialized through the four publications that still represent the only surveys of modern art of this country. Along with giving the original contribution to the history of art, this institution also played an important role in repositioning the art of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the margin to the centre of Yugoslav cultural scene in the 1980s. The collapse of socialism, that went hand in hand with the breakup of Yugoslav state and independence of Bosnia and Herzegovina, followed by the brutal war (1992–1995), horrible destruction, human loss and ethnic cleansing, resulted in the complete economic and political breakdown, in the dysfunctional, destabilized and ethnically divided state.

Cultura și patrimoniul cultural în era crizelor globale

Author(s): Mirel-Sorin Ivan / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

We live in an era of big changes and large-scale crises. Against the background of globalization, digitalization and hyper-pragmatization of existence, civilization is undergoing major transformations and evolutions, under such concepts as: ‘post-truth’, ‘post-culture’, ‘post-religion’, ‘post-humanism’, etc. In a broad sense, the notion of ‘post-culture’ can also define the decline of culture in the conditions of the world’s prevalent orientation towards material values and consumerism, under the pressure of an exacerbated pragmatism. At the same time, we are going through a time of big crises, successive or simultaneous: regional conflicts, increasing tensions among the great powers, the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, new epidemics threatening humanity, growing economic crises, etc. The pandemic drastically limited the access to culture, events, exhibitions, shows, archeological sites, etc. for two years. Wars endanger cultural goods, cause their degradation or destruction, also providing a framework for illicit operations. Economic crises, paroxysmal increases in costs overshadow the field of culture in terms of priority and importance. All these processes and global evolutions have an impact in the Romanian space as well, affecting culture and the national cultural heritage. Culture, deeply linked to education, is the means of building the individual spiritually, intellectually and morally, and the cultural heritage remains the background of a civilization’s spirituality, the framework of a people’s identity values in the concert of European and global diversity. Beyond crises and pandemics, culture and the legal protection of cultural heritage must remain a priority for every state. In the Romanian legal system, access to culture is a fundamental right enshrined in the Constitution.

Külliyat-ı Tarih’in XV-XVI. Yüzyıla Ait Nüshaları Üzerine Değerlendirme

Author(s): Gulzoda Makhmudjonova Akay / Language(s): Turkish Publication Year: 0

Kulliyat-ı-Tarikhi has the feature of being a corpus of important history books of the period. It is a historical work prepared by the period historian Hâfız-ı Abru (d. 1430) upon the request of the Timurid ruler Sultan Shahrukh (d. 1447). There are one illustrated and three unpictured copies of the work, which is handled within the scope of the illustrated history tradition, examples of which have begun to be given. Only two of the unpainted copies are illuminated. Only one copy, without illumination and incomplete, has survived. The illustrated copy of Kulliyat-ı-Tarikhi is currently in the Directorate of National Palaces of the Presidency of the Republic of Türkiye, registered in TSM. B.282. Other copies are preserved in Istanbul Süleymaniye Library, Damat İbrahim Pasha (Nr. 919), Hekimoğlu Ali Pasha (Nr. 703) and Nuruosmaniye Library (Nr. 3267). The lack of many copies of the work mentioned in our study, as a world history, indicates that it was not adopted and gained popularity after the completion of Kulliyat-ı-Tarikhi, while it also shows that the text was actually written to meet the interests and purposes of Sultan Shahruh. In our study, the content of Kulliyat-ı-Tarikhi,the preparation process of the illustrated and unillustrated copies, and the codicological features will be evaluated.

Philomelion’dan Roma İmparatorluk Dönemi Adak Hekate Heykelciği

Author(s): Barış Emre Sönmez / Language(s): Turkish Publication Year: 0

This study covers the Hecate figurine, which is located in the region called Phrygia Paroreia in the Ancient Period and is exhibited in the Nasreddin Hodja Archeology and Ethnography Museum, which is affiliated to the Konya Akşehir Museum Directorate, in the Akşehir district of Konya province today. Although there are deficiencies in certain parts of the work, the fact that it is found as a single piece and especially the protection of the head allows us to evaluate the work. The Hecate statuette indicates the existence of local sanctuaries in the area. When evaluated together with the typological and iconographic features determined for the figurine, it is important to determine the belief structure and votive cultures in the region or settlement. The figurine most likely indicates its use either as a domestic cult or as a votive offering. The iconographic and stylistic evaluation of the Hecate figurine has been made, and it is considered suitable for dating to the first half of the 2nd century AD.

Tradicionalna i kulturna tolerancija na nasilje nad ženama: primjer Crne Gore

Author(s): Milena Aćimić Remiković / Language(s): Montenegrine Publication Year: 0

Nasilje nad ženama kao društveni problem, star koliko i samo društvo, proizašao je iz osnova socijalne strukture utemeljene na polugama patrijarhata. Analiza društveno-istorijskih okvira u Crnoj Gori pokazuje da nasilje nad ženama donedavno nije shvaćeno kao problem koji treba rješavati, jer u našoj patrijarhalnoj kulturi vladaju duboko ukorijenjeni stereotipi o rodnim ulogama koji direktno izražavaju autoritet muškaraca nad ženama. Iako prilično zadovoljavajuć pravni okvir, s izvjesnim propustima i prostorima za poboljšanje, problem nasilja nad ženama zadržao se i do danas. Istraživanja govore u prilog rodno zasnovanom nasilju, seksualnom nasilju nad ženama, diskriminaciji žena i nejednakim uslovima u različitim sferama života, brojnim mizoginim i seksističkim komentarima s kojima se svakodnevno susreću žene u crnogorskom društvu, te femicidima kao najdrastičnijim produktima nasilja nad ženama i narušenih odnosa moći između polova. Cilj ovoga rada je da prikaže kako su stereotipi o rodnim ulogama, patrijarhalno nasljeđe i drugi kulturni i društveni postulati, utičući i na pravno uređenje države, kreirali pogodnu klimu za stvaranje i održavanje u životu problema nasilja nad ženama do danas.

Example of the Connection Between Musicology and Music Education for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage

Author(s): Georg Brunner / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

For schools, the fundamental question is to what extent cultural heritage, and here specifically classical music, can play a role. In the scope of this paper, we will take an approach that places aspects of musicological research at the centre of music education. What role can musicological research play at schools and universities? In the following article, we will show how musicological (basic) research methods can be integrated into university teaching and school music lessons through relevant questions in a project-like approach. The focus is on exploring the musical culture of a region through archival work.

Digital curator at the museum of fine arts

Author(s): Lukáš Pilka / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

If we examine a painting in a gallery, we can see it contains an array of different things. When we are looking at it from a distance, we are likely to be drawn to its dimensions or overall composition. When we edge closer, we discern the abstract style of the painting, our eyes follow the lines, surfaces, edges and shapes. When the style of the painting is representative, we start to explore a motif, a figure or the elements and how they are spatially arranged. In the case of a portrayal of a human being, our eyes will naturally turn to the face, the features and gestures depicted, the position of the body or the attributes of the figure. We might also be intrigued by the creative style, the schematic aspect of the image, or the specifics that emerge from the artist’s handwork, such as brushstrokes, contrasts, or the color scheme; we might even pay attention to the unique and defining artistic signature.
