Izložba o arhitekturi Jugoslavije u MoMA muzeju

Najuticajniji muzej moderne umetnosti na svetu, njujorški Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), od 15. jula prikazivaće izložbu Toward a Concrete Utopia: Architecture in Yugoslavia, 1948–1980, čija je tema arhitektura bivše Jugoslavije.

To će biti prva velika međunarodna izložba koja se bavi arhitekturom bivše Jugoslavije, a koja će obuhvatiti više od 400 crteža, modela, fotografija i video radova iz raznih opštinskih arhiva, porodičnih kolekcija i muzeja širom regiona, putem kojih će posetioci moći da pogledaju dela vodećih arhitekata socijalističke Jugoslavije.

Arhitektura koja se pojavila tokom tog perioda - od modernih nebodera, do monumentalnih spomenika i drugih objekata - predstavlja manifest radikalnog pluralizma, hibridnosti i idealizma koji je karakterisao samu jugoslovensku državu, navodi se u zvaničnoj najavi izložbe.

Izložba istražuje teme urbanizacije, tehnološkog eksperimenta i njegove primene u svakodnevnom životu, spomenicima, memorijalizaciji i globalnom dosijeu jugoslovenske arhitekture, u pravcu konkretne utopije, a predstaviće radove važnih arhitekata, uključujući Bogdana Bogdanovića, Juraja Neidhardta, Svetlane Kane Radević, Edvarda Ravnikara, Vjenčeslava Rihtera i Milice Šterić.

Organizatori izložbe su Martino Sterli, glavni kustos arhitekture i dizajna MoMA muzeja, Vladimir Kulić, gostujući kustos i Ana Kats, kustos asistent na Odseku za arhitekturu i dizajn MoMA muzeja.

Izložba "Toward a Concrete Utopia: Architecture in Yugoslavia, 1948–1980" biće otvorena od 15. jula ove do 13. januara 2019. godine.

The Hagia Sophia

The Hagia Sophia

The Mystical Light of the Great Church and its Architectural Dress

by Charalambos P. Stathakis

Dear reader, as you run like the rest of us along the dizzy main road, stop, stay aside for a while. Let the others be dizzy, and take the secret underground trail, which will lead you through the dewdrops of the leaves, the crystal smile of the sun, the city’s underground galler- ies, your knowledge, and your feelings, to the doorstep of the Hagia Sophia. Because all dew- drops, all sunrays, and all beauty lead there. That is what you will be told by my friend, the author, whom I am fond of and whom I send you to, Charalambos Stathakis: the doctor, the warm and humane researcher, the scientist devoted to his work and his patients, who has given a series of scientific papers, who, nevertheless, retains a nest of beauty untouched in his heart, which makes him outstanding—even though he is not a specialist in architecture, nor a historian, nor a theologian, nor a Byzantinist—it makes him stand out in all these together and in entirety.
