Exhibition opening

PREFABRICATING SOLIDARITY

Friday, 16.5.2025. at 6pm

We are pleased to invite you to the opening of the exhibition “Prefabrication of Solidarity: IMS Žeželj between Yugoslavia, Cuba and Angola” on Friday, May 16th at 6 pm at the Museum of African Art in Belgrade.

The exhibition illuminates the fascinating and little-known story of international technological cooperation between three members of the Non-Aligned Movement – Yugoslavia, Cuba and Angola – during the 1970s. The focus is on the IMS Žeželj prefabricated building system, an innovative skeletal structure made of concrete columns and ceiling slabs connected by steel cables, patented in 1957 by engineer Branko Žeželj at the Belgrade IMS Institute. Through photographs, archival material and video interviews with architects and engineers from all three countries, this exhibition explores how “triangular solidarity” created lasting connections between the continents.

The exhibition’s curatorial team includes Vladimir Kulić, Vesna Pavlović, Jelica Jovanović, Fredo Rivera, as well as Ana Knežević and Emilia Epštajn in front of the Museum of African Art.

The first public tour is on Sunday, May 18th at 11 am, when Vesna Pavlović will talk about the exhibition and concept.
