Celje

War and Peace

  Gledališki Trg     more than a year ago
Celje's Gledališki Trg is home to one of the finest public sculptures in all of Slovenia. Created in 1956-57, by the Slovene sculptor, illustrator and poet Jakob Savinšek, the bronze and stone monument stands some five metres tall and is a tribute to the World War II era as well as a more general reflection on the oppositional states of war and peace. The work was given even more poignancy by the artist's untimely death, at the age of 39, shortly after its creation.
