More information:

In the centre of Mostar, a building closed down following the war of Bosnia and Herzegovina. During the conflict, this former bank (Ljubljanska Banka) was located near the demarcation line: the people's revolution boulevard (Bulevar narodne revolucije). Scars of the urban guerrilla warfare are still visible with countless bullet holes, mortar and shell fire marks. Henceforth this industrial wasteland - covered with graffiti - has become a Mecca for street art in Mostar. Bâtiment désaffecté suite à la guerre de Bosnie-Herzégovine dans le centre ville de Mostar (Bosnie-Herzégovine). Pendant le conflit, cette ancienne banque (Ljubljanska Banka) était située à proximité de la ligne de démarcation, le boulevard de la révolution populaire (Bulevar narodne revolucije). Les stigmates de la guérilla urbaine sont encore visibles aujourd'hui avec d'innombrables impacts de balles, de tirs de mortier et d'obus. Cette friche industrielle désormais couverte de graffiti est devenue un haut lieu de l'art de la rue à Mostar.
