Exhibition "City Space - Nature Space"

The exhibition "City Space - Nature Space" presents the protected areas of Belgrade, selected specimens of dendroflora, natural monuments, and landscapes of exceptional characteristics interpreted in the form of video works, photographs, and texts, as well as an eco figure made from secondary raw materials on the topic of protected animal species inhabiting our capital's area.

The city and nature intertwine and permeate each other. In addition to the ecological significance most commonly recognized, the natural values of special features in the urban landscape composition are inseparable from urban, historical, and cultural toponyms. Developing urban space represents the conquest of natural space, while preserving natural resources is simultaneously a necessary condition for survival. The modern inhabitant of urban space is forgetting the innate connection with the natural environment, the whole without which one loses their natural, human essence, neglecting one of the essential needs of human beings to be in continuous communication and touch with nature.

With the exhibition "City Space - Nature Space," the Institute for Nature Conservation of Serbia brings the living monuments of Belgrade closer to the public, as witnesses of the past to which we are connected through history, memories, memorials, traditions, and myths. The exhibition aims to introduce the public to the protected areas - the green oases of Belgrade, selected specimens of protected dendroflora, and animal species of Belgrade in the context of preserving, valuing, and interpreting the natural heritage of urban space.
