Agim Çavdarbasha

[1] Çavdarbasha was a major influence on contemporary sculpture in Kosovo.

Born in Peć, Democratic Federal Yugoslavia (modern-day Peja, Kosovo), he graduated from the Academy of Applied Arts of Belgrade in 1969 and the Academy of Arts of Ljubljana in 1971.

[1] His atelier in Čaglavica was put to flame during the 2004 unrests, but was rebuilt and today stands as a museum.

[1][2] His works include the statues of Ymer Prizreni and Abdyl Frashëri displayed at the League of Prizren museum.

During the Kosovo War, Serbian policemen threw the statues into a nearby river and the museum was burnt.
