The contributions were specially written for this occasion and this book\, designed as a collection of monographic type\, on the occasion of the 700th anniversary of the death of the Holy King. \nThrough thorough and multidisciplinary scientific argumentation\, in some cases opposing views\, they build a unique synthesis that depicts in layers and in detail the epoch of the golden age of the Serbian Middle Ages. At the same time\, they provide us with an insight into all current knowledge of contemporary historiography and bring fresh new solutions to many open questions of that era. In the end\, before the reader is the possibility of a deeper and more refined understanding of the personality and works of King Milutin. The book reveals to us a man and a ruler who\, at the crossroads of the worlds—East and West\, visible and invisible\, personal\, and general—bravely faced numerous challenges and changed the established paradigms of the great powers. Devoted to the legacy of his own ancestors\, he had a decisive influence on the shaping of our being. \nThis work from the auspices of the publishing workshop of the Fatherland Endowment of the ancient Hilandar\, reveals the greeting letter and blessing of the Hilandar abbot\, a real “key” for the modern reader to understand the mystical dimension of the words that “God gives grace to the pregaoc”. \nThe papers are completed by nine maps and as many as 228 illustrations\, which contribute to a better understanding of the era. The collection ends with an extensive bibliography\, while each author’s text is followed by a summary in English. \nThe warm recommendations of reviewers\, prominent world Byzantologists and historians of the Middle Ages\, further assure that this is an indispensable book both for researchers and for lovers and admirers of Serbian heritage and culture. Participating in the promotion are Danica Popović\, PhD\, editor of the Collection of Papers\, Vladimir Vukašinović\, PhD\, professor of the Faculty of Theologicy of the University of Belgrade\, Milivoj Ranđić\, director of the Foundation of the Holy Monastery Hilandar and\, in the role of moderator\, Gordana Gavrić\, advisor to the director of the Foundation of the Holy Monastery Hilandar.

The arrival of a large number of refugees imposed the necessity of their organized care. \nFor this purpose\, in 1941\, the Commissariat for Refugees and Immigrants was founded\, under whose tutelage in Mataruška Banja on June 3rd\, 1942\, Serbian refugee homes for the care of children begin their work. This has transformed this popular tourist spot into one of the most important and active humanitarian centers in Serbia. Since 1943\, the Studenica Monastery has been included in the system of refugee homes\, as a convalescent home for children with poor health. Caring for children was complex and included accommodation\, nutrition\, treatment\, schooling\, raising children and organizing their free time. \nAlmost all the children arrived very sick\, exhausted and starving. From the beginning of June 1942 to the end of November 1944\, more than 3\,445 children found refuge in Mataruška Banja\, 56 of whom\, despite the efforts of doctors\, succumbed to the consequences of the disease. Along with dozens of authentic photos\, personal memories of former residents of the homes were published for the first time\, and with numerous archival documents\, the exhibition depicts in a picturesque and interesting way the daily life of children and their guardians in the refugee homes of Mataruška Banja during the war years. \nThe authors of the exhibition are Ljubinka Škodrić\, PhD\, senior research associate of the Institute for Contemporary History in Belgrade and Mirjana Savić\, museum advisor of the National Museum Kraljevo.

At the same time\, the expression of stillness\, tranquillity and stability of the rock was given. The artist alludes to the dual nature of the world and man\, which is opposed in the constancy of time. The scarce\, inhospitable\, self-sufficient rocks of the Morača canyon are imposed as a starting point-motif for the “Styx” cycle\, which inspires awe in the artist. Following the research of matter and spirit\, which on this occasion are not mutually exclusive\, the artist consistently\, through respect for the standards of aesthetics\, creates associations with the physical properties of stone\, its texture and fullness\, bringing to the surface stillness\, duration and sublimity. The final result of the entire process of combining matter and spirituality reflects the artist’s feeling for the nature of stone\, which has been sharpened to the highest degree of sensitivity. \nJelena Šalinić Terzić was born (1976) in Kraljevo\, while she graduated in painting from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Arts in Belgrade in 2000\, in the class of professor Anđelka Bojović. She received her master’s degree in 2003 and her doctorate in 2016 from the same professor. He works as a full professor at the Faculty of Arts and Philology (FILUM) of the University of Kragujevac\, at the Department of Applied and Fine Arts. He has been a member of the Association of Fine Artists of Serbia since 2001. She exhibited at 50 solo and over 300 group exhibitions in the country and abroad. The works of Jelena Šalinić Terzić are in museum and private collections\, in the country and abroad.

DESCRIPTION:During the fourth and fifth decades of the 19th century\, the first chemical tests of medicinal waters from some sources in the territory of the Principality of Serbia began. Those first steps towards balneology cannot be observed without the comprehensive context of the creation and birth of certain political\, administrative\, economic\, and social conditions\, with the aim of forming a modern Serbian state. The changes that were reflected in the modernization of the state administration included the transformation of education\, healthcare\, the military and other structures of society. Many researchers believe that following the development of healthcare\, especially balneology\, we can also follow the beginnings and development of tourism. More precisely\, the beginnings of tourism in Serbia should be sought in its spas. From the so-called folk spas\, real spas are created\, the waters of which have been continuously tested and which have been hygienically arranged over time. Then Vrnjačka Banja\, Banja Koviljača\, Sokobanja and Bukovička Banja stood out. \nMataruška Banja\, as a health resort and tourist destination\, began to develop in the first years of the 20th century. Although it is one of the youngest spas\, due to its special natural resources and characteristic geographical-spatial structure\, its development followed an upward trajectory\, especially in the years between the two world wars\, when it was formed as a climatic health resort for rest and recovery. \nAt the exhibition “Mataruška Banja: Beneath the Cold Linden Trees\, Near the Fast Ibar River…”\, the audience will have the opportunity to learn through postcards\, photos\, objects and documents\, about the genesis of the origin and development of Mataruška Banja: from the discovery of healing water\, through the interwar years boom and rise\, then systemic and ideological changes in socialism\, when it developed into a modern health resort\, in accordance with the standards of modern balneology and rehabilitation\, until the beginning of the nineties of the 20th century\, when it experienced a kind of setback. In addition to the chronological presentation\, the exhibition provides an insight into the original urban and regulatory plan\, panoramas of settlements\, architectural projects of spa baths\, hotels and villas\, the appearance of tourist and hospitality facilities\, health and healing institutions\, representative spa villas\, and visually evoking the culture of living\, clothing\, as well as and scenes of rest and recreation. Part of its story is made up of portraits of famous people (doctors\, photographers\, architects\, merchants\, teachers…) who\, with their actions and suffering\, left a permanent mark on his physiognomy\, as well as the characters of those “ordinary” people\, mostly nameless\, who spent some time in the Spa for the sake of healing health problems\, but also for beautiful\, joyful life moments. \nThe author of the exhibition is Suzana Novčić\, museum advisor of the National Museum Kraljevo.

Women on the Balkans in Antiquity DESCRIPTION:The exhibition “Femina Balcanica: Mater\, Matrona\, Augusta\, Dea. Woman on the Balkans in Antiquity” of the National Museum of Serbia\, opens as part of the Statehood Day celebrations in the Gallery of the National Museum Kraljevo\, on Wednesday\, February 14th\, 2024\, starting at 6 p.m. \nThe exhibition “Femina Balcanica” is the result of the studious work of museum advisor Deana Ratković\, the author of the exhibition\, and four museum advisors from the Department of Archaeology of the National Museum of Serbia\, Vera Krstić\, Tatjana Cvjetićanin\, Veselinka Ninković and Mirjana Glumac\, thanks to whom visitors will have the opportunity to carefully selected museum objects introduce the occupations\, family relationships\, fashion\, customs\, position and role of women in the private and public sphere. \nThe exhibition\, talking about femininity\, beauty and social status\, women in Roman fortifications\, possible professional scopes\, women in the household or political life\, aims to familiarize all interested parties with the opportunities in earlier eras\, encouraging reflection on the perception of roles and relationships in the past times as well as in the current age. \nFrom objects for everyday use – horseshoes\, toys\, dishes\, through various jewellery\, medical instruments\, sculptures or epigraphic monuments\, the exhibition “Femina Balcanica” vividly tells different stories about women in the ancient era. Divided into five segments\, each of which deals with one of the spheres of a woman’s life and phenomena related to her position in the family\, cult\, community or art\, the exhibition traces the various roles that women have had.

It was defined as such by the ruling circles of the (male) elite\, and the research of archaeologists and historians for many years presented such a picture. So today we know a lot about the political and military hegemony of Rome over the ancient world\, the organization of the army and armaments\, the organization of government in the provinces\, infrastructure issues\, large construction projects that include aqueducts\, amphitheaters\, temples\, military camps\, etc. However\, the fact that the ancient writers did not leave significant evidence about the female part of the population\, and that women were not sufficiently represented in scientific studies\, does not mean that they were not important and active factors in the society of that time. \nViminacium was founded as a legion headquarters on the fortified Roman border – Limes. In such an environment\, oriented towards the army and the administration\, it is even more difficult to spot the female part of the population and reconstruct their daily activities. \nWhat did it mean to be a woman in the ancient period? What obstacles did the inhabitants of these areas face in the first centuries of our era? How did they overcome them? Aurelia\, a woman you rarely meet\, will help us in our search for answers\, through a lecture by Ilija Danković\, PhD\, scientific associate of the Archaeological Institute in Belgrade.

For poets\, she has always been a primordial inspiration\, the one that was the common source of their love and suffering. Although in Latin literature she is often depicted as a muse who inspires verses about devotion\, beauty and art\, the perception of women did not stop there. Many verses of Roman poets talk about the qualities and values that depict women’s role in society and deepen our understanding of the concept of women in the ancient world. \nThe audience will have the opportunity to learn how Latin love songs sounded\, how poets expressed their feelings through verses\, and what it tells us about the role of women in Roman society at the workshop “Speak Latin So the Whole World Can Understand You”.

However\, men also cooked\, so the most famous book of recipes of that time was written by Apicius\, which is known as “On Cooking”. Many people were involved in the process of food production and preparation\, and women were certainly the most important link. At the exhibition “Femina Balcanica: Mater\, Matrona\, Augusta\, Dea.

Through the efforts of individuals from the sphere of politics\, education and culture who worked in support of the opening of a specialized pedagogical institution for education in the field of fine and applied arts\, in In 2004\, the Art School was opened in Kraljevo. After receiving the Founding Decision\, the School started its work and was\, next to Art School in Niš\, the second institution of its kind south of Belgrade.

Cvetković\, among other things\, investigates the lasting impact of Tito’s cult on the Serbian people. The study primarily deals with the analysis of the formation of the personality cult of Josip Broz Tito as one of the key pillars of authoritarian rule in socialist Yugoslavia. It follows decades of propaganda that allowed Tito to remain loved and adored even decades after his death. In addition to the question of how Tito managed to build his cult of personality\, the book deals with the extent to which the construction of that cult was influenced by social heritage and the tradition of divinization of leaders in Serbia. It is analyzed how the technologies of building a cult of personality were specific in relation to other authoritarian leaders of that time. \nThe book further explores the task of Tito’s cult and the social preconditions for its emergence\, how the cult manifested itself and in what way it was modelled. Of vital importance to understanding the cult of personality in the modern age was the role of the mass media and state propaganda. \nCvetković’s analysis indicates that Tito’s cult was long-lasting\, systematically\, and aggressively nurtured. The role of all state institutions and social organizations is also explored\, which was key to its longevity and influence. \nThe study “How Tito Was Made” represents a significant contribution to the understanding of the domain of propaganda and the technology of building a personality cult\, as well as its successful and unsuccessful attempts to dismantle it in recent times. The introductory chapters of the book deal with the importance of the cult of personality for the establishment and maintenance of power in authoritarian societies and the technologies of building the cult of the leader. \nKosta Nikolić\, PhD\, scientific advisor of the Institute for Contemporary History in Belgrade\, Ena Mirković\, PhD\, scientific associate of the Institute for Serbian Culture Priština – Leposavić and the author\, Srđan Cvetković\, will talk about the book “How Tito Was Created”\, published by the publishing house “Catena Mundi”.

King Milutin had his vineyards in Kosovo and Metohija\, while Emperor Dušan passed laws on the protection of the geographical origin of Serbian wine\, transport\, and imperial cellars. \nAfter Lazar and Đurađ Branković\, and after the strict Ottoman prohibitions\, Serbian wine easily found its way to the Habsburg Monarchy via Sremski Karlovac\, finding its way into the first encyclopedia of Zaharij Orfelin called “Experienced Cellar Owner”) published in Vienna. You will find out who the “Perfect Winemaker” was\, what the path of the autochthonous vine was from Vršac all the way to the soil of America\, and finally how King Peter I renewed the tradition of royal vineyards and cellars on Oplenac in Topola. \nAfter the block about the most beautiful medieval frescoes depicting Serbian wines\, we will make a leap to Serbian romanticism and inspiration from this divine drink\, and find the wine inspired by modern Serbian painters: Katarina Ivanović\, Uroš Predić\, Stevan Aleksić and the unforgettable story of the creation of the famous painting by Đura Jakšić “Girl in Blue”. \nViticulture and Winemaking of the Župa Aleksandrovačka throughout the Centuries\n21:00-23:00 p.m. \nWinery with equipment for processing grapes from the interwar period at the Permanent exhibition of the Museum of Winemaking and Viticulture in Aleksandrovac. \nIn the first part of the program\, through a short presentation by MA Đorđe Živadinović\, an agricultural engineer from the Museum of Winemaking and Viticulture\, the audience will get an insight into the story of the development of this branch of the economy in the Župa area\, from the 12th century to the present day. It is also connected with the monasteries in our immediate surroundings. The first written document in which the Župa vineyard is mentioned dates back to 1196\, it is the Studenica Charter of the founder of the Serbian Medieval State\, Stefan Nemanja. And so throughout the Middle Ages\, Studenica\, Hilandar and Žiča had their vineyards in Župa. In addition to medieval history\, the story includes the period under Turkish rule and after liberation from it\, the formation of meadows in Župa\, the fight against the phylloxera vine disease\, the period between the two world wars\, and the period of socialism during the second half of the 20th century. \nThe second part of the program consists of a smaller exhibition\, prepared for this occasion\, where the audience will have the opportunity to see 35 selected exhibits from the rich winemaking collection of the Museum of Winemaking and Viticulture\, as well as the story of seasonal winegrowing settlements – fields\, created during the 19th century. On the free space in the middle of the vineyard where\, often due to the poor quality of the land\, the plot was left unplanted\, buildings were built that were used for the workers’ stay in the vineyard\, but also for storing tools and wine. \nIn the third part of the program\, the audience will have the opportunity to see the documentary film “Gifts of the Župa Aleksandrovačka”\, which was produced by Snežana Ašanin Šaponjić\, the museum advisor of the National Museum in Čačak\, as part of a project supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia. \n  URL:https://nmkv.rs/event/european-museum-night/?lang=en LOCATION:National Museum Kraljevo\, Trg Svetog Save 2\, Kraljevo\, 36000\, Србија ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://nmkv.rs/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Poster-for-the-European-Museum-Night-2024-in-the-National-Museum-Kraljevo.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Darko Gu%C4%8Danin":MAILTO:darko.gucanin@nmkv.rs END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Belgrade:20240523T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Belgrade:20240621T130000 DTSTAMP:20260403T204103 CREATED:20240515T080907Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240515T080950Z UID:16240-1716465600-1718974800@nmkv.rs SUMMARY:49th Children’s May Art Salon DESCRIPTION:The award competition of the 49th Children’s May Art Salon had a free theme this year\, which provided the participants with a broad conceptual framework for the realization of creative artistic expression. The goal of the Children’s May Art Salon competition is to highlight the importance of art education\, to adequately value the engagement and effort of individual art educators\, and to recognize the creative potential of their students through the public presentation of the most successful works created in school classes. \nThe Children’s May Art Salon\, according to its rules\, involves the participation of elementary school students from the 5th to the 8th grade from the territory of the city of Kraljevo and is of a competitive nature. The primary selection\, i.e. the jurying for the exhibition\, is performed by art pedagogues\, whose selection of works is evaluated by the Museum’s expert jury by awarding the award for the best selection of student works and the award for the most successful school in the field of art education. In addition to 9 equal prizes awarded to the most creative and technically successful works\, the main prize “Milorad Mihailović” named after the art historian\, curator of the Kraljevo National Museum\, who founded this event\, is specially awarded. \nThe jury for the selection and awarding of prizes at the 49th Children’s May Art Salon\, which met on May 7th\, 2024\, was composed of: Silvija Mitrović\, graduate painter of applied arts\, professor at the Art School in Kraljevo\, Jasmina Vasić\, graduate graphic designer\, professor at the Art School in Kraljevo and Jakov Jakovljević\, graduate graphic designer and illustrator\, president of the jury.

Placing the ancient past in an artistic context\, the exhibition covers a number of topics depicting the heritage of this era\, starting from archaeological sites\, epigraphic monuments\, artistic to useful objects from the Ancient Collection of the National Museum in Čačak. Bringing together photographic frames\, poetic expression\, paintings\, drawings and immediate\, original fragments\, the exhibition connects the time depths of an ancient settlement in the Roman province and the contemporary space of the city of Čačak\, imaginary and real. \nThe young people as models in this project are the current residents of Čačak\, but together with archaeological and architectural details\, decorative and useful items from the Antiquity Collection of the National Museum Čačak\, they create a visual ambience in which the differences between past and present\, life and art are blurred. \nThe authors of the exhibition are the curators of the National Museum in Čačak\, Slobodan Bogojević\, conservator\, and Aleksandra Gojgić\, curator of the Antiquity Collection\, who were joined by the fine artist Ivan Đurović. The authors of the photographs are Bojan Pajić and Ivan Đurović\, while the design of the exhibition was done by Miloš Vuk Aleksić.

Its authors look at the Second World War in occupied Serbia from a completely different angle. The horizon of this publication is represented by culture in its extremely important segment – the protection of cultural assets and the work of museums. From a heuristic point of view\, this monograph rests on the solid foundations of primary historical sources\, mostly of German and collaborationist provenance. The starting point of the research is the verification of stereotypes created in post-war Yugoslavia that only after the Second World War in a country whose entire social life is dictated by the Communist Party\, a museum network is developed outside Belgrade as the capital\, that then the first laws on the protection of cultural property are passed and the first institute is opened for the protection of cultural monuments\, as well as to form professional and scientific staff ready to actively work on the protection of cultural monuments. The author’s research denied these stereotypes. True\, they are more acceptable when it comes to the pre-war period\, but not for the occupation period 1941-1944. During the years of occupation\, the Government of Quislin designed a national network of Serbian museums\, on three levels. In addition\, in the spring of 1942\, the Decree on the Preservation of Antiquities was adopted\, which represents a fundamental modern legal act. On the basis of that Regulation\, the Central Institute for the Protection of Antiquities was established. In addition\, since the fall of 1941\, the Belgrade City Institute for the Preservation of Antiquities has been working. During the occupation\, there were also special courses – seminars for museum students\, through which\, either as lecturers or as course participants\, the most famous names of post-war Serbian heritology developed professionally and scientifically. In the official biographies of most of them\, the activity during the war years is completely hidden. In addition to documenting these facts\, along with a detailed historiographical narrative\, the authors paid additional attention to a number of other aspects of the work of heritage institutions in Serbia during the occupation.

The complete story about the Roman baths is specially apostrophized: as a universal story about this special type of Roman urban and social place of public life\, the numerous remains of which are present in Serbia\, as well as about the specific monument of this type found in the center of Čačak. \nThe province is a determinant that\, as a concept of the past and the present\, represents a global phenomenon that embodies passivity and peace\, but also a space far from the center of events. Antique Čačak was located on the border of two Roman provinces\, and the archaeological discoveries of its parts were placed in the center of today’s city\, which allowed the fragments of an ancient time to flow into the present. Hence\, the exhibition was conceived through multiple temporal and visual planes\, combining photographic frames\, poetic expression\, paintings\, drawings and immediate archaeological fragments. Discover how the layers of the ancient horizon are connected to modern man by the same territory\, feelings and substance.

In front of this strange\, slightly beautiful and terribly ugly world\, Joviša swears in this documentary that she will fight honorably\, not looking for any victory in the outcome of her personal life struggle. He finds peace in his modesty. Peace finds wisdom\, and wisdom seems to drive every truth to flight through the bars of Joviša’s store\, sensing its new warm home in the hearts of future generations.

The elite of the Albanian people advocated the idea of creating a “Greater Albania” and in that way ideologically directed the majority of the Albanian population in Kosovo and Metohija\, which was mostly rural and had a low level of education. \nThe goal of the exhibition is to objectively and comprehensively present the suffering of the civilian Serbian and Jewish population in the area of AP Kosovo and Metohija during the period of Italian and German occupation (April 1941 – November 1944) in the context of the state of war and other events in the Second World War. Respecting the historically established facts about the Second World War in occupied Yugoslavia\, especially in the area of AP Kosovo and Metohija\, the author tried to objectively and empathetically present the suffering of Serbs and Jews in the context of wartime events. Also\, in a significant segment of the exhibition\, criminals (inspirers\, commanders\, executors and accomplices) are presented because it is very important to know who they are\, and it is especially important to distinguish the degree of responsibility for the crimes committed. It is important to emphasize that entire nations can never be held responsible for the crimes of specific collective organizations and movements\, armed formations and individuals. \nThe realization of the exhibition was made possible by the Ministry of Culture and the Foundation of the Genocide Victims’ Museum\, and supported by the Museum of Yugoslavia\, the Military Museum\, the Ensemble of Folk Dances and Songs of AP Kosovo and Metohija “Wreath” and the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Priština with its temporary headquarters in Kosovska Mitrovica.

The Italian “experiences” of Serbian artists during the 19th and 20th centuries are visually represented by the selection of works of art from the collection of the Gallery of Matica Srpska. \nSerbian art of the 15th\, 16th and 17th centuries\, as well as earlier eras\, was created in the spirit of the Byzantine artistic tradition\, based on Orthodox spirituality\, which is why today we can only partially and incompletely talk about Italian influences during those eras. Hints of the presence of elements of art created on the soil of the Apennine peninsula begin to be more clearly expressed in the works of Serbian artists of the 18th and 19th centuries. Historical and social changes\, the migration of the Serbian population to the north of Europe and the area of the Habsburg Monarchy influenced the transformation of Serbian art. The Italophile atmosphere that reigned in the cultural and artistic circles of the peoples of European countries encouraged Serbian artists to study the historical-artistic heritage of Italy. \nAlong with copies of paintings based on the works of Italian masters of painting Parmigianino\, Guido Reni and Pompeo Batoni\, the exhibition also includes paintings and drawings depicting the cities\, people and heritage of Italy\, as well as graphic sheets by foreign artists based on the works of Raphael\, Titian\, Anibal Caracci. Over 30 works of art by artists such as Novak Radonić\, Aksentije Marodić\, Jeftimij Popović\, Pavle Simić\, Dimitrije Petrović\, Nadežda Petrović\, Vasa Eškićević and others testify to how Serbian painters saw and experienced Italy\, but also how the attitude towards Italian art contributed to shaping individual works of art. \nThe author of the exhibition is Stanislava Jovanović Mindić\, curator of the Gallery of Matica Srpska in Novi Sad\, and the Italian Institute for Culture in Belgrade\, DDOR Insurance and the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia helped to realize the project. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Amor Carves a Bow by Novak Radonić\, 1852\, oil on canvas\, 137.2 x 66.5\, Painting Collection of the Gallery of Matica Srpska (GMS/U-14).\n \n \n \n \n \n Vesuvius in Flames by Dimitrije N.

From the Collection of the Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia” will be opened in the Gallery of the National Museum Kraljevo\, as part of the Žica Spiritual Assembly “Transfiguration 2024”\, on Friday\, August 16th\, 2024\, starting at 8 p.m. The exhibition will be opened by Bojana Borić Brešković\, MA\, director of the National Museum of Serbia.\nThe thematic backbone of the exhibition by Dragana Kovačić\, PhD\, museum advisor and curator of the Collection of Drawings and Graphics of Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia\, is represented by the depiction of the city as a key place where it began and where modern culture and art developed dramatically and rapidly\, first at the transition from the 18th to the 19th and then from the 19th to the 20th century. \nThe motif of the city in the field of fine arts from the 17th century was mostly represented in printed graphics\, whether it was individual prints or graphic maps with topographic representations of different places. In accordance with the cognitive standards of the modern age\, accuracy and truthfulness are emphasized in the graphic representations of cities. Thus\, city views that were printed in the form of series and maps according to publisher’s orders and in the first decades of the nineteenth century were made in the same way as thematic maps of various scientific disciplines such as botany\, zoology or anatomy. Charles Broke’s prints\, “View of the Kremlin” and “Petrov Castle”\, Friedrich Weber’s “View of Freiburg” or Josef Weixelgertner’s “View of Belgrade from the Sava Side” belong to this type of work. \nA century later\, at the end of the 19th century\, the way artists see the city changes fundamentally\, thanks to the great influence of impressionism and post-impressionism. On the other hand\, the way of observing the city becomes conditioned by the often-accelerated changes in the appearance of the cities themselves and the way people lived in them. In addition to the depiction of individual cities\, a frequent theme is the city as a phenomenon\, without specific identification\, with a sense of alienation in urban areas. \nThe authors of the exhibited works moved expressively through unoccupied spaces\, using the artistic style and language that previous generations have tested and adopted. These are the authors of the so-called middle current in artistic trends. That is why their representation of the city is “certain”\, and there are no turning points in the story. In it\, two ways of understanding the city separated by a century are confronted\, and their works show how the image of the city has changed\, without major breaks and drama. \nThe exhibition “Cities: A Certain View. From the Collection of the Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia” includes 48 works and 36 artists and will be open in the Gallery of the National Museum Kraljevo until October 4th\, 2024. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Street in Dubrovnik by Bouda\, woodcut\, 48 x 32 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-1757).\n \n \n \n \n \n Untitled (Street in the old town) by Unknown engraver\, etching\, drypoint\, 46.5 x 33.1 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-1879).\n \n \n \n \n \n Landscape near Ostrava by Vladimir Silovski\, woodcut\, 38.5 x 43.5 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-1769).\n \n \n \n \n \n Square in Narna (Plazenj\, 1910 Riga\, 1960) by Mario Streti\, lithography\, 37.5 x 45.8 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-1774).\n \n \n \n \n \n Untitled (View of Amsterdam) by Cornelis (Kes) Bolding\, 1926\, etching\, 42.5 x 61 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-2041\n \n \n \n \n \n View of Belgrade from the Sava side by Jozef Eduard Weixelgertner according to Karl Goebel\, 1850\, lithography\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-37-1995).\n \n \n \n \n \n Church of Saint Nicholas in Mostecka Street by Jan Vondrous\, 1913\, etching\, drypoint\, 45 x 23.8 cm Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-1781).\n \n \n \n \n \n Colquier Canal in Amsterdam by Frans Everbag\, etching\, aquatint in color\, 59 x 40 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-2036).\n \n \n \n \n \n On the Bosphorus by Ema Borman\, linocut\, colored\, 33.8 x 44 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-2218).\n \n \n \n \n \n Evening on the Vltava by Viktor Stretti\, color lithograph\, 37.5 x 48 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-1775).\n \n \n \n \n \n Antwerp Cathedral by Gilles de Brijker\, 1929\, etching\, 69.5 x 56.5 cm\, Collection of Graphics by Foreign Authors of the National Museum of Serbia (NM-36-207).

It is the fourth gathering of researchers from the fields of history\, political science\, law and philology organized by the National Museum Kraljevo with the support of the Faculty of Law of the University of Belgrade and the Institute for Political Studies from Belgrade. During the two days of the meeting\, on August 17th and 18th\, 2024\, twenty scientists will present their works. \nThe main intention of the scientific and organizational committee is to improve the knowledge of the role of the printed word in the historical trends of the Balkan areas by presenting and creating scientific papers. The initial impetus for the preparation and organization of this scientific conference\, as well as the previous ones\, was the activity of Slavoljub Maržik\, MSc\, who focused his efforts on preserving the history of our city by collecting newspaper articles about Karanovac\, i.e. Kraljevo in Serbian newspapers. The collected historical material\, published in four books published by the National Museum Kraljevo\, facilitated the research work\, inspired and motivated the professional public to contribute to the set noble goal. \nThe main topic of this year’s scientific conference is aimed at highlighting the role of individuals\, public social and cultural workers as well as scientists and artists who influenced social trends and public opinion\, political attitudes and cultural trends through their work\, social activity or public performances. The researcher’s focus is on public engagements and performances and reactions to published works\, then subsequent analyses that encouraged polemics\, reflections and searches for ideas highlighted in these works and that left a mark on public opinion\, shaping society\, changing previous ideas about certain social attitudes or movements. Also\, in the scientific works that will be presented\, political or cultural echoes in society at the time of the appearance of certain personalities on the public scene\, the development of their ideas\, the presentation and reactions of the public\, expert circles or political and state bodies will be analysed.
