Pristina is the capital of Kosovo -- the youngest state in Europe, whose independence declared on 17 February 2008 has been recognised by over 100 countries including the United States and most EU member states, though Kosovo's international status remains subject to ongoing diplomatic processes and UN Security Council Resolution 1244 -- a city of 215,000 inhabitants 113km north of Skopje Airport on the Pristina plain, whose extraordinary combination of the Newborn Monument (the most internationally celebrated single public art installation in the post-Yugoslav space -- the NEWBORN letters erected on the day of Kosovo's declaration of independence, repainted every year since 2008 to reflect a different theme, the most symbolically charged single object in Kosovo and the most internationally photographed monument in Pristina, the most direct expression of the aspirations of the youngest European state in any single sculptural form), the National Library of Kosovo (the most architecturally controversial and most internationally discussed building in Kosovo -- the 1982 building by Croatian architect Andrija Mutnijakovic, described as one of the most extraordinary examples of Brutalist architecture in southeastern Europe, its extraordinary facade of 99 domes and metal mesh curtain walls the most immediately striking single building in Pristina, the most frequently cited architectural curiosity in the Balkans) and the extraordinary energy and optimism of a capital city with the youngest demographic in Europe (Kosovo has the youngest population in all of Europe, giving Pristina the most youthful urban energy and the most forward-looking cultural atmosphere of any Balkan capital) give it a contemporary political and cultural identity of unique fascination.
Pristina's most important historical and cultural heritage is the Gracanica Monastery (10km south -- the most magnificently preserved Serbian Orthodox medieval monastery in Kosovo, built 1315-1321 by King Stefan Milutin, its extraordinary five-domed Byzantine structure the most completely intact and most artistically distinguished medieval Serbian monastery in Kosovo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Medieval Monuments in Kosovo nomination, its 14th-century frescoes the most completely preserved medieval Serbian fresco programme in the country, the most important single Serbian Orthodox monument in Kosovo) and the Imperial Mosque of Pristina (the most important and most completely preserved Ottoman mosque in Kosovo -- the Careva Dzamija, built in the 15th century, the oldest surviving mosque in Pristina, the most historically significant single Ottoman religious monument in the capital). The Kosovo Museum (the most important single archaeological and historical collection in Kosovo, documenting the extraordinary prehistoric, Illyrian, Roman, Byzantine, medieval Serbian and Ottoman heritage of the territory), the thriving bar and cafe culture of Mother Teresa Square (the most vibrant and most internationally diverse cafe scene in any post-Yugoslav capital of its size) and the Kosovo Specialist Chambers context give Pristina a political and memorial complexity of the most serious contemporary European significance.
Newborn Monument -- Most Internationally Celebrated Post-Yugoslav Public Art Installation, Most Symbolically Charged Object in Kosovo, Repainted Every Year Since Independence (2008): The NEWBORN Monument (erected 17 February 2008 on Kosovo's independence declaration day, repainted annually with a new theme since 2008 -- the most internationally photographed single monument in Pristina, the most symbolically charged public art installation in post-Yugoslav space, the most direct sculptural expression of the aspirations of Europe's youngest state) gives Pristina a contemporary political artistic identity of unique importance in post-war European political geography.
Gracanica Monastery -- UNESCO World Heritage, Most Magnificently Preserved Serbian Orthodox Medieval Monastery in Kosovo, 14th-Century Frescoes: The Gracanica Monastery (10km south, UNESCO World Heritage, built 1315-1321 by King Stefan Milutin -- the most magnificently preserved Serbian Orthodox medieval monastery in Kosovo, five-domed Byzantine structure, 14th-century frescoes -- the most completely preserved medieval Serbian fresco programme in Kosovo) gives the Pristina area a medieval heritage of world art-historical significance as the most distinguished Serbian Orthodox monument in the territory.
