Promena paradigme arhitektonsko-urbanističkih koncepata na objektima kulture u procesu konstituisanja jugoslovenskog kulturnog prostora u periodu od 1947. do 1974

Problems of spatial concepts of an architectural work represent one of the crucial topics of contemporary architectural theory and practice. The research of spatial concepts of representative structures built for cultural purposes in the region of former Yugoslavia performed in this paper represents the necessary starting point for studying contemporary architectural theory and practice in Serbia at the beginning of 21st century besides its contribution to the studies of architectural work in Serbia in 20th century. The research starts from the moment when cultural politics of the new socialist Yugoslavia demands the creation of a specific architectural expression characteristic of new Yugoslav social system thus marking a clear discontinuity with modern architecture of period between wars. The first part of the paper deals with research of complex process of theoretical definition of new Yugoslav architectural expression through a detailed analysis of theoretical texts of experts who engage themselves in the thematic, designs for competitions for representative objects of government administration and objects for cultural purposes in the context of cultural politics in the researched period. Architectural expression of socialist Yugoslavia was, in the complex and changing socio-political circumstances of after-war years, theoretically defined at the beginning of the sixth decade of the last century and finally positioned as ‘the third way’ between the two dominant practices of the period and with a clear distinction, the West European discourse of modernism model and the Soviet socialist realism model. The second and third parts of research critically analyses the constructed cultural structures as representatives of specific Yugoslav architectural expression which have, as proven by research, completely realised contemporary spatial concepts of objects used as museums or of memorial character. The specifics of concept in Yugoslav architectural expression stems from the basic concept modernism with ideological annex of socialist society where development, transformation and mutation of spatial concepts in cultural structures in Yugoslavia were realised in relation to dual dependency, from fundamental paradigms of modern movement and socio-political changes within Yugoslav cultural space.
