Visa-free entry made Serbia an accessible destination for people leaving Russia and Belarus after 2022. Its current rules allow ordinary passport holders from Russia and Belarus visa-free stays of up to thirty days. VISARUN follows people whose temporary lives became a cycle of departures and returns.

At this crossing, Serbian and Bosnian passport checks are separated by a bridge across the Sava. The kiosk stands on the route between them. Both countries were part of Yugoslavia; today this is an international border.

The “white card” records where a foreign visitor is staying in Serbia. It is an address-registration document, not a residence permit. In VISARUN, these sheets become a paper record of a life lived temporarily.

Saša Janez Mächtig’s K67 was conceived as a modular system: small units that could combine to serve everyday street life. It became familiar across Yugoslavia; an example belongs to MoMA. At Sremska Rača, an abandoned burger stand acquired another life: Ivan’s poem made it a shared landmark for people returning to the border.

The work brings together five first-person accounts, Georgy Molodtsov’s scans and photographs shared around Ivan Pezikov’s public poem. The filmmaker is also part of this story: he encountered the kiosk on his own visa runs.

The Kuzmin–Sremska Rača motorway section and a new Sava bridge are under construction. VISARUN preserves more than the kiosk’s surfaces and changing light: it holds the words and encounters that made this place matter.
