Yugoslav Art and Culture:
From the Art of a Nation to the
Art of a Territory

 

 

 

 

Introduction

Art and culture have great significance in the creation of nations and national identities. Art was understood as the embodiment of the national spirit and testimony to its existence, as well as a means for creating a nation. The historical processes of creating Yugoslav art and culture, as well as their fates show just that.

in Yugoslavia

 

 

 

 

Case study 1

The end of Empire signaled a new, transformative chapter in the history of Balkan Muslim communities at the turn of the 20th century. The Muslims who became part of the new political frameworks of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia formed a significant population across the region but presented an enduring challenge as regards their modern identity formation.

At the beginning of the 20th century the Serbian Orthodox Church was socially privileged, highly reputed and institution of major national and cultural importance. Under the 1903 Constitution of the Kingdom of Serbia Eastern Orthodoxy was proclaimed official religion, religious training was obligatory in schools, national holidays were marked by religious services and the clergy paid by the state like other public servants.
