The chronology of the deconstruction of Sava Centar. Built in Belgrade in 1977, this congress center, with its striking late-modernist architecture, was a vision of the future for the progressive, Non-Aligned, international Yugoslavia. After the collapse of Yugoslavia in the nineties, this monumental building slowly became obsolete and run down. In 2022, it was privatised. During the commercial reconstruction which took place in 2022 and 2023, the original interior elements and the physical traces of the history and socio-political identity of Sava Centar were gradually removed. “Inventory” observes this erasure.
