BLAGO 2024: IN REVIEW
BLAGO had an active year in 2024. We visited the monasteries of Ravanica, Koporin, and Sisojevac, creating material for the upcoming public collections. At the same time, we published comprehensive collections of the monasteries Sisojevac, Naupara, Rudenica, and Ljubostinja. The highlight of our work in 2024 was the publication of the new Monastery Grachanica collection, which had been in the making for a few years.
While collecting and publishing heritage is our primary activity, we also actively promote it and our work. By organizing a session at the International Medieval Congress in Leeds, UK, we established a platform for participants from Serbia and scholars of Serbian heritage from the US.
As our material is published under licenses that allow for free usage with attribution, we receive many monthly requests for reprints and republications. Many of our pictures have also found their way into the OrthoPrax app, available on Android and Apple platforms.
2025 promises exciting work, as we will be involved in several projects in Kosovo and Metohija. We also plan and hope for our first visit to several sites around Skopje, Macedonia.
We need help with funding and volunteering to continue our work. If you like what you see, please donate.
