This survey presents more than 400 models, photographs, drawings, and film reels that chronicle how urbanization, consumerism, memorialization, and technology shaped the former Yugoslavia’s postwar construction efforts. Featuring projects from International Style skyscrapers to Brutalist structures to modernist buildings such as Bosnia’s White Mosque, the exhibition examines a wide range of modes and forms undertaken by its local architects, including Bogdan Bogdanović, Juraj Neidhardt, and Milica Šterić.
