On June 17th Fisnik Ismaili (Executive Creative Director) of Ogilvy Kosova receives a phone-call late at night from Cannes Lions telling him he has to fly out early in the morning to Cannes to collect Gold for the NEWBORN.
There’s few things in life you can say you’ve done, or rather there’s few things you can add to your “Things I want to do before I reach 30″ list - Gold in the Permanent Environmental Category at Cannes Lions would have topped that. Gold in Cannes comes to Prishtina and joins its buddy Silver Clio received few weeks back in Miami, Florida.
The team at Ogilvy and all who worked on this monument that represents a day etched deep in history of Kosova are proud to say that they were once part of this art piece that moved hearts, and still electrifies chills on my neck.
Writing & talking about this feat seems not to fulfill my appetite towards NEWBORN. Simply enjoying the moment and smiling back in pride seems nice enough to simply say ‘wow’ with a cute little question mark for an intonation.

NEWBORN is growing up and enjoying the breeze outside. I haven’t passed along there in awhile, but to refresh my memory I plan to walk down there and see if anything has changed. I know there’s few spray-painted marks done by some few weeks back, which remind me that nothing is invincible. We must work and protect all that we stand for.
Cheers.
Now that NEWBORN is a week old, we’re thinking of what to do next with it - as far as its permanent location goes. Our discussion on this topic is an ongoing thing, thus we have created a separate page on this website where we’re asking you to discuss your ideas on this topic.
Where do you think NEWBORN should end up?

It has to be “huge“, it must be particular, unique even better.
Everybody wanted to be included, everyone wanted to participate in a way or another just to feel it from near enough so to say loudly and proudly “I even was part of it!“.

Our NEWBORN seems to have raised very much attention, gained a lot of reputation. We are proud of ourselfs for this creature, even I personally feel proud that I helped in in one way or another. It’s something that can never be forgotten.
Joy and happiness is floating above us as those yellow-helium-filled balloons flew up on Prishtina’s sky that night.
I hope that we, you, everybody, in particular people of Kosova enjoy this newborn life within their newborn country.
In a nutshell, on behalf of NEWBORN today we’ve created a new page on this blog on which we are going to include every possible edge we can be aware of where NEWBORN sculpture has been posted, filmed, mentioned at least, let that be a whole article, a small paragraph and/or even a single word though.
Hence, here it is, visit the Newborn on the Media page and enjoy exploring.
Update: seems that the term NEWBORN was very quickly absorbed by the people and every one who displayed something about Kosova that day referred to it usually with this term.
Google proves it more if you wanna know 
Google It! to see for yourself.
