25 abandoned Yugoslavia monuments that look like they’re from the future
“These structures were commissioned by former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito in the 1960s and 70s to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place or where concentration camps stood. They were designed by different sculptors and architects, conveying powerful visual impact to show the confidence and strength of the Socialist Republic. In the 1980s, these monuments attracted millions of visitors per year, especially young pioneers for their ‘patriotic education.’ After the Republic dissolved in early 1990s, they were completely abandoned, and their symbolic meanings were forever lost. From 2006 to 2009, Kempenaers toured around the ex-Yugoslavia region with the help of a 1975 map of memorials, bringing before our eyes a series of melancholy yet striking images.”

藤原公任 「葦手歌切」
「あ」や「ぬ」が葦の葉のように書かれ、「や」はあきらかに鳥として描かれている。「の」をその背景、たとえば山にかかる月とみたてれば、歌の中に一幅の絵画をみることができる。 (via 葦手 - 三上のブログ) 『西寺のほとりの柳を詠める / 僧正遍照 : 浅緑糸よりかけて白露を珠にも抜ける春の柳か』
にしてらの ほとりの やなぎを
よめる 僧正遍照
あさみどり いと よりかけて白露を
たまにもぬける はる の やなぎか
