The Belgrade International Week of Architecture BINA begins on Thursday with an exhibition about Villa Prendić, which was lucky enough not to be demolished, but rebuilt. A documentary film was made about this, as proof that preserving heritage is possible
The program of this year's edition of the Belgrade International Week of Architecture BINA is extremely current, important and of general interest because it refers to examples of both good and bad practices in today's architectural practice. Specifically, at exhibitions, lectures, workshops... the Sava Center, BIGZ, Vila Prendić, but also at the General Staff and the Belgrade Fair will be discussed.
BINA, whose central theme is "Echoes of Modernism", begins tomorrow with the exhibition "Vila Prendić - a new view, a new duration", in the Art Gallery of the Cultural Center of Belgrade,
The curator and author of the "Villa Prendić" exhibition, Aleksandra Šević from the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments of the city, said that the reconstruction of this villa, built according to the project of Milan Zloković, is an example of good practice that should be emulated in the future by people who own real estate-a cultural monument. or they decide to buy one such monument.

"This is an example of good practice, which should be emulated in the future by people who are faced with having real estate - a cultural monument or who decide to buy it." We have preserved all the original values of Villa Prendić, which is why it was designated as a cultural monument. I think the result restored faith that such types of renovation can happen nowadays, that it is not necessary to redo everything, shape it differently and adapt it to some current moment and model of life," said Aleksandra Šević.
Part of this exhibition is a documentary film produced by Do.co.mo.mo. about the renovation of Villa Prendić. The film is of an educational nature and talks about the fact that it is possible to carry out reconstruction in a way that supports the building itself as a monument and the users who enter that house 100 years later, explained Danica Jovović Prodanović, one of the founders of BINA.
There is great interest in the guest appearance of Wesel de Jong from the TU Delft University, who will hold a lecture and participate in the seminar "Renovation of 20th Century Architecture", which will also discuss the threat of heritage - the General Staff, the Belgrade Fair and Hotel Yugoslavia.
BINA walks, the program for which BINA is recognizable, are dedicated to the reconstruction of buildings created in the 20th century, the works of architects Milan Zloković, Stojan Maksimović, Milorad Pantović, Vladeta Maksimović... Danica Jovović Prodanović announced that some of the newly built buildings will also be visited during the walks our contemporaries.
The organizers of BINA are the Society of Architects of Belgrade and the Cultural Center of Belgrade, and it will last until June 29.
