Beograd - Nationalists break up exhibition
Members of Obraz, nationalist movement, broke up the opening of an exhibition of works by Priština artists in Belgrade.

you can see that the exhibition "Exception / Contemporary art scene of Prishtine" opening n Kontekst Gallery in Cultural Centre "Stari Grad" in Belgrade was not only interrupted by one Nationalist guy, there were also
massive protests going on outside. The police was closing the streets in
order to prevent the hooligan mob from reaching the gallery (in the same
time they also prevented the visitors to attend the exhibition opening so it
was mainly media and police in the space).
The violation of the opening was tolerated by the police (the whole gallery
was full of policemen but they didnt react for around 10min although they
were asked to do so several times). Police was even a protagonist in the
action of closing down the exhibition. They were in the gallery all day long
when the exhibition was constructed and in informal talks it turned
outthat most of them were in kosovo theirselves (kosovo war was mainly
fought by serbian police, not by army), they made remarks like "I will not defend that exhibition". after the violation of the opening some of them
went into ideological discussions with the curators. Immediately after the
violation they asked the director of the space to sign an agreement not to
use the space in the next days and not to open the exhibition again.
So the police's plan was to prevent the mob from reaching the gallery which
would have meant uncontrolled riots (happened at gay pride in 2001
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_pride_parade#Belgrade,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MTQm0jEfDw).
But they wanted the opening to
be stopped and the exhibition not to take place. This was a political
decision, taken by high political representatives, supported by almost all
political parties and almost all media and accomplished by ultra-radical
forces (obraz http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obraz, Stormfront, Football
Hooligans) with the help of the serbian police.
Before the exhibition was supposed to be opened in Belgrade a big scandal
was produced because of the work you can see on page 40 of the catalogue on
www.kontekstgalerija.org, it
shows adem jashari ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adem_Jashari), an
UCK-leader who is considered as freedom fighter by albanians and stylised to
a national icon in kosovo whereas serbs consider him as a war criminal and
terrorist. The work was destroyed at the opening.
But of course it is not about the work itself, the work is replaceable. It
is about the fact that nationalistic forces in serbia cant stand that the
exhibition shows contemporary art from kosovo, and thereby implifies, that
kosovarians are "civilised people" and not "primitive barbarians" as what
they are considered in serbia for ages.
