A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The paper aim is to present the architecture of Yugoslav pavilions built in four different World Expositions: Barcelona (1929), Paris (1937), Brussels (1958), and Montreal (1967). To clarify the architectural circumstances of great exhibitions the paper starts with a brief overview of the history of World’s Fairs. The core of the paper starts with a section containing four case studies, each of them representing one pavilion, designed by a Yugoslav architect. An analysis of the selected case studies is made from the historical perspective with the emphasis on the architect’s point of view. National pavilions of guest countries are still prevailing in recent World Expositions. They are usually planned and designed by the architects of a certain country, since each country wants to show its own priorities on lifestyle, industry, technology, and art. The discussion shows the influence of World Exposition pavilions on contemporary architecture, and the characteristics of architecturally successful pavilions. At the end, some general architectural observations about pavilions at World Expositions are given.
