Retrotopia

“Retrotopia. Design for Socialist Spaces” is a collaborative exhibition project It explores the role and influence of design in the countries of the former Eastern Bloc and ex-Yugoslavia from the 1950s to the 1980s. An innovative network of curators and institutions provides new and surprising insights into the complex layers of the design landscape of a region that is still unknown to a broader and especially Western audience. With their extensive research, the actors of “Retrotopia” contribute decisively to an overdue reassessment of global and decolonial design history.
