A contribution to the study of architect Vladislav Vladisavljević's interwar period opus in Belgrade

Abstract

The subject of the research presented in this paper is the Belgrade opus of the architect Vladislav D. Vladisavljević (1905-1961), predominantly realized during the 1930s. Given the insufficient attention paid to this topic in previous historiography, the main focus of this paper is that of providing a systematic description and stylistic analysis of individual buildings, which both provides a basis upon which the necessary explication and valorization of the same can be made, and creates a clearer and more complete picture of the positioning of Vladislav Vladisavljević within the domestic architectural scene of the time. Although the methodological framework adopted involves a synthesis of biographical and historiographical approaches, the study largely relies on available material stored in the Historical Archives of Belgrade and the architect's personal archives in the Architecture and Urbanism Collection of the Belgrade City Museum. The ultimate goal of the paper is to contribute to and deepen the existing knowledge, but also to provide certain new information, which will lead to and facilitate more detailed studies of this topic
