Joze Plecnik Architect: 1872-1957

By Fancois Burkhardt and Francois Burkhardt

The Yugoslavian architect Joze Plecnik followed what he believed to be a coherent language of architecture in trying to build a better world through architecture. He cannot be classified in terms of any of the movements - modernism, classicism, secessionism, eclecticism, regionalism and the like - that characterize the turbulent aesthetic tendencies of this century. Instead, as these essays and accompanying illustrations show, Plecnik's long career offers an example of the richness and diversity of early modern architecture.
