of Art History) in Zagreb released an academic publication about the topography of modern architecture from the period between the two World Wars on the territory of Croatia. The book was produced by the Školska knjiga publishing house, supported by the International Working Party for Documentation and Conservation of Buildings, Sites and Neighbourhoods of the Modern Movement (DoCoMoMo), founded in 1988 in Eindhoven. DoCoMoMo works on revitalizing and promoting 20th century modernist art. This book presents the results of a five – year project under the direction of Darja Radović Mahečić from the Institute for Art History in Zagreb. In the course of the project a national register of Croatian modern architecture from the period between 1926 and 1940 was set up. The task was to investigate this period of Croatian architecture, when a national identity was being created and many buildings and conceptswere being developed under the influence of political changes, comparable to events in the traditional European architectural centres. The one hundred selected buildings represent a broad spectrum of types: public spaces, offices, residential and multifunctional buildings, rental villas and family houses, schools, hospitals, hotels, churches and chapels, exhibition pavilions and workers’ districts. Some show close links with local tradition (e.g., the Institute for Biology and Oceanography in Split, by Fabjan Kaliterna, 1930–1931) mainly on the Croatian coastline. After Zagreb, the other cultural centres were Split, also Rijeka and Zadar, which were under Italian rule. Modern architecture also reached the islands of Krk, Hvar, Koločep and Lopud, and also the architecturally preserved town of Dubrovnik (see City Café and cinema at the Great Arsenal, by Mladen Kauzlarić and Stjepan Gomboš, 1931 – 1933). The structure of the book is clear and well–arranged. After the introduction there are chapters on Croatian Modern Architecture in the 1930s and The Internationalization of Croatian Architectural Avant-Garde, followed by a Register of Modern Architecture in Croatia, a bibliography, a typological index, and an index of localities and names. The core material is a catalogue of one hundred selected and in chronologically ordered examples of modern architecture in Croatia. Each building is presented here with its main specifications (name, architect or architects, time of creation and address), black-and-white, illustrations (original and current photos, in some cases reproductions of plans and sketches) and an index of sources. The preconditions for inclusion in the catalogue were that the source documentation had been well researched, the buildings were of highly architectural value, and above all, that their present condition and appearance reveals the original architectural and urban concept. The third condition must have been complicated by the fact that many examples have been damaged e.g., by removal of the flat roof, a typical formal feature. Nevertheless, these
