What is it
But after the collapse of the country, most of the monuments were destroyed or abandoned. Now they are almost not interested in their fate, funds are not allocated for maintenance, restoration and research, so the monuments are likely to have a sad future.
The monuments stand out strongly against the background of the rest of socialist architecture not only for their brutality, but also for their democratic approach to the choice of works.
The monuments of Yugoslavia are numerous and diverse: ranging from modest plaques that have no special artistic value, to monumental sculptural structures and urban architectural ensembles with significant aesthetic, artistic and architectural significance. The Spomenik project was supposed to perpetuate the exploits of the partisans in the Yugoslav People's Liberation War and the revolution that brought Josip Broz Tito to power. The monuments stand out strongly from the rest of socialist architecture not only for their brutality, but also for their democratic approach to the choice of works.
