Spatial/artistic intervention Spatial Prescriptions

04 Description (not exceeding 50 words):

The city park and Šumarice Memorial Park share the same thematic framework, that is the memory of the Second World War as a connecting narrative of Yugoslav society. By engraving a quotation of the poem A Bloody Fairy-tale by Desanka Maksimović into the work, the intervention becomes homage to the victims. The division of a long transversal (the red line and a couple of posts at every hundred steps) proposed by the concept, opened up the possibility of different programming.

The team of authors consists of the members of the Kragujevac specialist association Urbanium (Natalija Bogdanović, Marija Simović, Aleksa Đurić, Petar Simović), and authors of the work Spatial Prescriptions which was prepared for the Competition for Conceptual Setups of Interventions in Public Spaces in Kragujevac – About Public Spaces – from the Beginning (Tihomir Dičić, Fedor Jurić, Bogdan Đokić) and realised during the Days of Architecture.

Urbanium is a team of architects who deal with architecture from different perspectives – from the perspective of architectural practice, design production, education in higher education institutions, and who treat architecture as an activist practice. Dičić, Jurić and Đokić are graduate architects whose practice covers a wide range of activities, from work in architectural bureaus, through their exhibiting practice and participation in competitions, to publications, graphics and illustrations.
