Kulturna saradnja – primeri iz prošlosti: Jugoslovenske izložbe 1904-1912

The first Yugoslav exhibition was held in Belgrade, 1904. Until First World War, there had been three more held in Sofia, Zagreb and again Belgrade. These exhibitions played a significant part in bringing the artists and people from different nations together, under the idea of creating a unique cultural space. Over 90 artists participated in the first Yugoslav exhibition, from Serbia, Bulgaria, as well as Croatia and Slovenia which were then a part of the Austo-Hungarian Empire. These exhibitions were accompanied by cultural events such as the Congress of Yugoslav Youth, meetings of writers and journaists. The main goal of these cultural activities was the attempt to create one unique cultural space, which would exceed the national borders. Even today, these examples from the past are guidance for building better neighbourly relations, learning from mistakes of the past, pointing out misconceptions and using these as good and informative guideposts.PublishedŠifra projekta
