CONTRIBUTION OF SLOVENIAN ARCHITECTS TO THE MONTENEGRO ARCHITECTURE IN THE 1960-1990 PERIOD

Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the contribution of Slovenian architects to the architecture of Montenegro in the period of 1960- 1990. This is a period of construction of more quality architectural objects on the territory of the Republic of Montenegro, from the end of the World War II up to the disintegration of the common state of Yugoslavia. The observed time period is characterized by intensive construction of objects intended for tourism and culture. Introduction of an institution of the architectural competition by the Association of Architects of Montenegro, has allowed the arrival of new ideas by architects from other republics of former Yugoslavia. This chance was considerably utilized by Slovenian architects Edvard Ravnikar, Marko Mušič and Janez Kobe, and with their works they have made significant contributions to architecture on the Montenegrin area. The time distance shows that the architectural works of Slovenian architects realized in Montenegro have significantly and permanently enriched the architectural heritage and influenced the development of the architectural thought in the local environment. This study uses the term "architecture in Montenegro", according to the authors' point of view that the architectural opus in this area doesn't have the necessary attributes in order to use the qualification "Montenegrin architecture."
