Context and Location, Croatian Architecture Exhibited at MoMA

The idea was to define the Museum not only as a place for preserving the legacies of architects, but also as a gathering place in which topics related to architecture, urbanism, landscape architecture, the aesthetics of space and cultural heritage are continuously followed. An insight into the country's architectural scene was created by the continuous presentation of leading Croatian architects, of their thoughts, wishes, knowledge and abilities. Shedding light on key concepts of Croatian architecture, urbanism, and society by projects, the exhibition in MoMA provides a broader understanding of the history of architectural modernism in Croatia for an international audience.
