Yugoslavia Pavilion

Exterior view photograph. Yugoslavia Pavilion exterior (lot C-424). The simple yet striking roof lines of the Yugoslavia Pavilion made it a memorable Expo pavilion. The rectangular plan contained exhibition spaces and a theatre. Exhibits shared the country's rich history and culture. Native music playing in the background added to the high spirited mood. The story of Man and his World then moved on to contemporary life of Yugoslavia. Among the display of contemporary art were priceless national treasures. The industry-themed exhibit explored the use of production as a means for democratic life. The theatre featured Yugoslavian films, cartoons and documentaries. It was also the stage for live concerts by Yugoslavian artists. Five vertical, triangular elements. Structural steel with cocoon vinyl coating on plywood. (S: 152' x 127' 6" --- A: 13,892 sq. ft. --- H: 62')
