The Red Fićo

“The Red Fićo” Art Installation – the image of the JNA (Jugoslav National Army) tank crushing a small red fićo car had travelled around the world and became one of the most recognisable symbols of the Homeland War. Exactly 20 years later, and in celebration of the Day devoted to defenders of the city of Osijek, an installation in the memory of that fićo was revealed. It is located at the crossroad of Vukovarska Street and Trpimirova Street and it symbolically portrays Croatia’s victory over the JNA. How, one may ask? Well ironically, in this instance, it is the fićo which is crushing the JNA tank carrying the date June 27 1991 on its plates. A date which became a part of history.
