To dear colleagues around the world, Belgrade, November 8, 2004

It is a pleasure for me to write to you again. Hope you are keeping well. While working on the preparation of the Eighth Belgrade Triennial of World Architecture, I hope we renew our contacts. This time I would like to let you know about the following:

After a year’s work, since September this year, I can offer to prominent world architects two exclusive CDs entitled:

… Seven Belgrade Triennials of World Architecture (1985, 88, 91, 94, 97)

… Seven Belgrade Triennials of World Architecture (2000, 03)

Within two PowerPoint presentations, on two CDs there are 648 pages. This fact only speaks about the seriousness of the project which cost me 4,000 Eur (5,000 US$).

The world presentation of both CDs took place in the famous Montenegrin resort Budva on September 21 & 22 this year.

A selection of the Seventh Belgrade Triennial of World Architecture was shown in the Gallery-Museum “Citadela” through fourty posters. In the same space I presented 5 different CDs as well as the film “Portrait of an Architect”, about which I am enclosing the relevant information (Invitation card).

The two CDs contain the pages with digital photos of the posters presenting the work of architects featured in selections:

… Fifty Outstanding Architects in the World (1985, 88, 91)

… 100 Architects of the World who have marked the 20 Century (2000)

… The Aga Khan Award for Architecture (2000)

… Architects whose work was exclusively featured at 1994, 97, 2000 & 03

Triennials

In case you are interested in having the two Triennial CDs,

please send me a cheque for 200 US$ or 160 Eur.
