This book hinges its central arguments on a microhistorical reading of this unique cultural community that existed simultaneously on the practical periphery of Yugoslav cultural developments and within the center of the state’s fragmentation.
This book follows the lives of Sarajevan visual artists as they responded to the rising instability and political fragmentation that defined the last days of Yugoslavia’s existence.
