Staro Sajmište
Staro Sajmište, Belgrade
Interwar fairground pavilions turned wartime camp, then decades of artists' studios.
This guide to Staro Sajmište in Belgrade follows the painters and sculptors who were handed studios on the grounds of a Nazi concentration camp in the early nineteen fifties. It turns on Mića Popović, a painter with a studio in one of the towers, and a night in nineteen fifty-four when that studio stopped being a studio. You'll also hear about the camp the Gestapo ran in these same pavilions. Best heard standing between the Italian and Czechoslovak pavilions.
