description | The focus of this paper is a research field that has (until now) remained
outside the main academic theoretical frameworks - the question of the
visual identity of Belgrade seen (and experienced) from the perspective of
children. In methodological terms, the paper relies on the results of field
research conducted in March 2021 at the Kneginja Milica (Princess Milica)
Primary School in New Belgrade, which included a sample of 60 children from
Years 1 to 4. The aim of the paper is to discuss from an anthropological
perspective some of the key issues of perceiving the appearance of the
capital as a visual entity per se: 1) Which visual markers of Belgrade, in
the opinion of children, are key to its visual identity and what are the
central points on the symbolic map of the capital?; 2) What is the main
symbol of Belgrade and what criteria guide the participating children when
selecting this central visual marker?; 3) (To what extent) are individual
children’s perceptions of the panorama of the capital compatible with each
other and what are the characteristics of the general children’s image of
the capital?; 4) (In what way) Is the children’s image of the city in
harmony with the ‘official’ image of Belgrade? and 5) Is the child’s
perception of the visual identity of the capital the result of direct or
indirect urban experience? |
