Ivo Kurtović (1910-1972) was a well-known Serbian painter, architect and university professor. Born in Dalmatia, Ivo Kurtović is best remembered as the designer of Pavle Beljanski Memorial Collection Museum in Novi Sad and the National Library of Serbia at Belgrade[1]. There were only three architecturally impressive buildings built in all of Belgrade after 1945 (the communist period): the Trade Union Hall, Hall 1 of the Belgrade Fair and National Library of Serbia.[2]
Ivo Kurtović specifically tried as much as possible to incorporate building styles from the Dalmatian and Montenegrin littoral with characteristics of structural functionalism of the pre-war period as well as brutalist architecture of the stagnant, communist postwar period. The National Library of Serbia, located in Belgrade, is an example of Kutović's chef d'oeuvre.[3]
