Will Bora Đorđević get a monument on Tašmajdan?
Copied

Bora Đorđević's widow recently banned the showing of a documentary about the legendary rock musician, and now she opposes the musician's initiative to erect a monument to Bora. He believes that "the involvement of the wider community, but also of the competent state authorities" is necessary for this.

"Yes, the 'Bori u čast' concert will be held on November 2, as we announced. We have fulfilled all legal obligations, which means we have reported the repertoire to SOKOJ, and there is no reason to change anything," he told Vreme. Sergej Trifunovic regarding the family letter Bora Djordjevic in which he opposes this concert.

Because of "pure love for Bora's songs", musicians Aleksandar Sedlar, Đorđe Miljenović, Mikri, Krsma, Džorzi, Sergej Trifunović and their guests will hold a three-hour concert of Bora's songs on the Belgrade raft "Zapa baza".

As part of the program, the signing of a petition for the installation of a monument to Boro Đorđević on Tašmajdan will be organized, for the creation of which all income from tickets will be forwarded.

Letter from a widow

Bora Đorđević's widow and the band thanked the organizers of the concert "for their sincere intention to pay tribute to the man who marked the music scene with his unique style and songs that shaped many generations" on the official account of "Fish Stew", but they also wrote that "the way on which this event is realized is not fully in accordance with the values ​​and principles that Bora advocated during his life".

They believe that the idea of ​​erecting a monument is "noble and deserves special attention", but that "an undertaking of this magnitude requires the involvement of the wider community, as well as competent state authorities who recognize the importance of Bora Đorđević for the cultural heritage of Serbia and the Balkans, and who would adequately provided for this worthy act”.

Documentary

This is not the first time that Bora Đorđević's family opposes the popularization of his work by admirers of the musician.

At the beginning of October, Dubravka, Bora's widow, hitchhiked to the screening of the documentary "Fish Stew - Songs You Can't Live Without" by Sandra Rančić and Dušan Vesić, which was on the program of the international festival "Dok en ritam". Although, as they wrote in the announcement, they have "Bora's written consent" for this film, and regardless of the fact that "before the estate hearing is held, where the competent court decides on the legal inheritance, she - from a purely legal point of view - has no opportunity to influence anything." , the authors of the documentary decided to withdraw it from the festival "out of respect for the legendary rocker's widow".

Let us recall that the family of the deceased Đorđe Balašević has a similar attitude towards the continuation of the life of the work of the great Đolet.

In the beginning was virtue.

At the moment when the institutions of the Republic are destroyed, when Vučić's octopus is still alive, when people are disgusted by the injustice and the stench left behind by the Essenes regime, we have, as Machiavelli said, only civic virtue as the fuel with which we can return to the beginning
