Abstract
The exhibition under the title “Radovan Nikšić: Karlovac - Projects and Realizations” was mounted by the architect Luka Krmpotić on the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of Nikšić’s birth. Radovan Nikšić, Ph.D., the university professor and member of Academy, born in Karlovac, was one of the renowned and most prominent figures of the 20th century Croatian architecture. This exhibition offered an overview of the relatively unknown segment of Nikšić’s architectural work, the one related to the architecture of Karlovac. A range of projects were displayed on this occasion: the designs for 11 residential buildings from the 1950s: residential buildings built for the needs of the Military Post, a residential complex in Kurelčeva St., the competition entry for the Gym Park (1953), a residential building (1954), the design for the Yugoslav Army Centre (1960) and the competition entry for the City Library “Ivan Goran Kovačić” (1971).
