Book excerpt: This is an English edition of the catalogue which was first printed for the exhibition "Avant-garde & Continuity" (Vienna, 2007). The book presents architectural projects in Croatia which can be divided into three effective periods, with distinct styles and conditions. Social and political circumstances had a huge impact on the projects: the 1930s presented Croatian independent production, while the 1950s and 1960s were much influenced by the communist government. Currently, Croatia is undergoing a kind of reorientation, which is an inevitable consequence of the Balkan wars during the 1990s. The book highlights the most important projects from these three periods.

Download or read book Forging Architectural Tradition written by Dragan Damjanović and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the nineteenth century, a change developed in the way architectural objects from the distant past were viewed by contemporaries. Such edifices, be they churches, castles, chapels or various other buildings, were not only admired for their aesthetic values, but also for the role they played in ancient times, and their role as reminders of important events from the national past. Architectural heritage often was (and still is) an important element of nation building. Authors address the process of building national myths around certain architectural objects. National narratives are questioned, as is the position architectural heritage played in the nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries.

Croatia has a population of approximately 4.05 million people, with the majority of residents identifying as ethnic Croats. Croatia has a rich cultural history that dates back to prehistoric times. Its strategic location between Central Europe and the Mediterranean has made it an important crossroads for various civilizations, including the Illyrians, Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans, and Austro-Hungarians. Croatia gained its independence from Yugoslavia in 1991 and has since become a member of the European Union, NATO, and the United Nations. The country is known for its stunning coastline, beautiful national parks, and rich culinary traditions, and it has become an increasingly popular tourist destination in recent years.
