Serbia-Austria - Aspects of bilateral relations from 1836 to 1914. 09.September 2014. Hannes Leidinger Notes of stormy relationships On Monday, September 8, an exhibition dedicated to Austrian-Serbian relations from 1836 to 1914 under the title "Notes of turbulent relations" was opened in the Konak of Princess Ljubica in Belgrade. The exhibition was organized by the Austrian Cultural Forum Belgrade, the Institute for Contemporary History and the Museum of the City of Belgrade. Authors, Assoc. Dr. Hannes Leidinger from the University of Vienna, Dr. Danilo Šarenac, research associate at the Institute for Contemporary History, and Vladimir Tomić, senior curator of the Museum of the City of Belgrade, tried to make this exhibition of documentary materials and works of art, as well as the accompanying, very exhaustive catalog of the exhibition, present a network of densely intertwined, close, but at the same time complicated relations between two peoples and two countries, not neglecting the political contradictions that led to war in 1914. With the permission of the organizer, we present part of the text from the exhibition catalog written by one of its authors

Zoran Majdin Magi and devils It never occurred to anyone to ask, if nothing else, what goods and services various psychics advertise, how their "shops" are registered and whether the goods they sell have a certificate or origin at least, what is the quality of the goods and whether they have all been settled tax obligations, and compliance, whether the "service providers" are professionally qualified for the activity they are engaged in

Healthy people, healthy society 23.March 2001. Biljana Vasić The rustling of tracksuits and money In the sixties of this century, futurists predicted the emergence of the "encephalon generation", a man with a stunted body and a huge head. It turned out that their theories have no real basis - the coming generations are taller and heavier than their grandfathers.

When Vladimir Arsenijević got out of the taxi, Belgrade was once again loomed over by the same man who prevented Ron Haviv's exhibition, prevented the holding of the first Pride Parade, set fire to the Bajrakli Mosque and the Embassy of the United States of America, and vandalized the city center during the 2010 Pride Parade.
