Fićo tramples a tank!, Public art installation in Osijek, Croatia.
The outdoor sculpture presents a red Zastava 750 car positioned victoriously above a military T-55 tank at the intersection of Vukovar and Trpimir Streets.
Created in 2011, this installation commemorates a 1991 incident during the Battle of Osijek when Yugoslav forces crushed a civilian vehicle with their tank.
The red Zastava 750, known as Fićo, represents Croatian civilian resistance against military aggression during the Croatian War of Independence.
Visitors can explore the installation freely throughout the day and read information panels that explain the historical context of the artwork.
The sculpture transforms a moment of destruction into a symbol of triumph, inverting the original event by placing the civilian car above the military tank.
