Belgrade National Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art - as stated above; both closed. Both, indeed, had been closed for some time, with little hope of either reopening in the near future. Dulović guided towards the bombed, ruined Government ministry buildings instead, which I’d passed, in the dark, walking up Nemanjina from the station to my hotel. Dulović went on to point out that photographing these sites was illegal and, furthermore, that they were guarded by NATO. Which was rather baffling, especially given that images pop up all over the place online; you don’t have to be James Bond Junior to get at ‘em.
I present, therefore, a fetching dossier style photo from Wikipedia, whose poor quality leaves a good deal to the viewer’s imagination. Close up and at street level? Interesting and slightly evocative, but really, not that impressive.

More illumination, but on the Museum of Contemporary Art
