»Scene for a New Heritage«, 2004 and »Scene for a New Heritage II«, 2006. These two films take place at a Petrova Gora Memorial Park at a monument designed by esteemed modernist sculptor Vojin Bakiç. In Croatia, 2045 a group of young travelers makes a journey to a silver monument which had been erected under the communist government of Yugoslavia to commemorate the Second World War. It is the 25th of May, Tito’s birthday anniversary, and they are on a quest to recollect the monument’s fading promise. Nearly two decades later, in 2063, Petrova Gora Memorial Park is visited for a second time. In both films the monument-museum, once idealised as an abiding testament to ideology, is now perceived as at first a moment embedded with avant-garde ciphers, and ultimately an abstraction.
