This encompasses the further progress of cities, the evolution of cultural industries, the growing use and application of new technologies (particularly in the creative arts), the reconstruction and renovation of cities and the impact of these processes on tourist industries and the service sector in general. The processes of de-industrialization in the Southeast European region have been connected to the fall of socialist systems. The transition periods have involved economic and social decline alongside the initial efforts invested in economic and social restructuring. Quite painful social decline has mainly been caused by the unemployment of large layers of city dwellers, former industrial workers who had been drawn from the rural areas to the cities over only one or two generations. The war over the dissolution of Yugoslavia has also negatively affected the functioning of cities. Break down of city infrastructure has been quite common, either caused by de-industrialization and economic decline or by the war operations. Some cities were damaged and largely de-populated; some fell victim to the heavy inflow of refugees; some became isolated, and this damaged many of their functions, particularly those related to communications, transport, the tourist industry and suchlike. Some were exposed to an overall slow decline reflecting systemic changes heavily linked to value changes and to a kind of de-culturalization experienced all over the region. Indeed, the repositioning of the cities is

  • (2019), the Vardar River As a Border of Semiosphere – Paradox Of
    Geographia Polonica 2019, Volume 92, Issue 1, pp. 83-102 https://doi.org/10.7163/GPol.0138 INSTITUTE OF GEOGRAPHY AND SPATIAL ORGANIZATION POLISH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES www.igipz.pan.pl www.geographiapolonica.pl THE VARDAR RIVER AS A BORDER OF SEMIOSPHERE – PARADOX OF SKOPJE REGENERATION Armina Kapusta Urban Regeneration Laboratory Institute of Urban Geography and Tourism Studies Faculty of Geographical Sciences University of Łódź Kopcińskiego 31, 90-142 Łódź: Poland e-mail: [email protected] Abstract As suggested by its etymology, regeneration usually carries positive connotations while its negative aspects tend to be belittled. However, any renewal results in major morphological, physiognomic, functional or social changes, which imply changes in the meanings encoded in space. These transformations are not always welcome and they may lead to public discussions and conflicts. Skopje 2014 is a project within which such controversial transformations have been taking place. The area surrounding the Vardar River and its banks plays a major role here. On the river banks monumental buildings were erected, bridges over the river were modernised and new ones, decorated with monuments, were built for pedestrians. Bridges can be considered a valuable component of any urban infrastructure as they link different parts of a settlement unit (in the case of Skopje – left (northern) bank and the right (southern) bank; Albanian and Macedonian), improve transport, facilitate trade and cultural exchange. In this context, referring to Lotman’s semiosphere theory, they may become borders of semiotic space, which acts as a filter that facilitates the penetration of codes and cultural texts. Yet, in multicultural Skopje meanings attached to bridges seem to lead to social inequalities as they glorify what is Macedonian and degrade the Albanian element.

The Christmas festivals are always held there and it commonly serves as the site of cultural, political and other events. The independence of Macedonia from Yugoslavia was declared here by the country's first president, Kiro Gligorov. The square is currently under re- development and there are many new buildings around the square being constructed. The three main streets that merge onto the square are Maksim Gorki, Dimitar Vlahov and Street Macedonia. Dimitar Vlahov Street was converted into a pedestrian street in 2011. Maksim Gorki, while not a pedestrian zone, is lined with Japanese Cherry trees, whose blossoms in spring mark a week-long series of Asian cultural events. Finally, Macedonia Street, the main pedestrian street, connects Macedonia Square to the Old Railway Station (destroyed by the 1963 earthquake), which houses the City of Skopje Museum. Along Macedonia Street is the Mother Teresa Memorial House, which features an exhibit of art facts from Mother Teresa's life.

  • Apexart International Fellowship Sample Schedule Location: Skopje, Macedonia
    apexart International Fellowship Sample Schedule Location: Skopje, Macedonia This sample schedule reflects the key components of the itinerary that apexart Fellows receive upon their arrival. For International Fellowships, apexart works with local coordinators based in the city to development and confirm activities, meetings and daily events. Depending on the Fellowship location, there are about three events per day. The places, people, and events selected provide insight into the city’s culture, language, routines and current events. Similarly, the schedule aims beyond the art world, and highlights the often overlooked and potentially inspirational aspects of a place. It is a geographical, historical, and intellectual exploration that combines the high with the low and the mundane with the extraordinary. This sample schedule is inspired by an International Fellowship coordinated by Yane Calovski and Jovanka Popova in Macedonia. Monday 11:00 AM Visit "The Fascinating World of Spiders" Exhibition Where: Macedonian Museum of Natural History Address: Blvd. Ilinden 86 Macedonian Museum of Natural History was founded in October 1926 following an initiative of the wellknown biologist Dr. Stanko ​ Karaman. The Museum collects, studies, and displays the natural heritage of Macedonia. The Museum collections totals more than 270,000 specimens of rocks, minerals, fossils, plants, fungi and animals from Macedonia. Through numerous scientific projects, the Museum undertook numerous studies of the fossil and recent fauna of Macedonia. 3:00 PM Personal development session with Ivana Stankoska Where: LUX Integra, Str. Gorgji Kapchev 21a One psychotherapy session each week gives Fellows an opportunity to discuss any issues, questions and thoughts while on the Fellowship. This is one of the activities that Fellows speak of as being one of the most interesting and important to them, and provides skills and results in a willingness to explore more after the program.
