Balkan Photography
Balkan Photography refers to the photographic practices and styles that originate from the Balkans, a region in Southeast Europe. This genre often captures the diverse cultures, landscapes, and historical contexts of countries like Serbia, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Photographers in this area frequently focus on themes of identity, conflict, and the rich traditions of the local communities.
The work of notable photographers, such as Dušan Kovačević and Maja Babić, showcases the unique perspectives and narratives found within the region. Balkan Photography not only documents everyday life but also serves as a medium for social commentary, reflecting the complexities of post-war societies and their ongoing transformations.
