The Balkans: Graffiti Photos

Categories: Eastern & Central Europe, Bosnia Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, Arts & Culture, History, War & Conflict, Youth

Mat Savelli of Roma Roma posts a collection of the Balkan graffiti photos [1]: “So, while “death to all Croats!” might give the impression that, say, Mostar east of the Neretva is a relatively intolerant place, there is every possibility that this was written in 1994. That being said, the fact that some graffiti does not get covered up might say something, but its hard to determine whether it means complacent acceptance of the message by society at large, or just a lack of paint to cover the thing up.”
