dc.description.abstract | The aim of this chapter is to examine a number of Belgrade’s freshly
constructed monuments as symbolic markers of the transformation the city has
recently been undergoing. The selection includes statues to Tsar Nicholas II Romanov
and Gavrilo Princip, as well as the fountains at Slavija Square and Topličin
venac. It is argued that by their physical and aesthetic properties, as well as in
how the process of their construction unfolded, these structures embody in a nutshell
the crucial features of the overall urban change in Belgrade lately. These
features may best be described as twin developments of postmodernization and
demodernization. The first refers to an overemphasis on tourism, consumption,
entertainment and “pleasure”, foregrounding visuality and surfaces; as well as to
disposing of previous practices of rational, strategically guided urban development
based on expert opinion and relatively transparent lines of administrative
decision-making. The latter concerns the aesthetic aspect where the legacy of
Serbian/Yugoslav modernism is being discarded and increasingly replaced with
older, more monumental and “literalist” artistic forms of earlier epochs. | sr |
