📍 Heydukova 11/13, 811 08 Bratislava

About the exhibition
The exhibition at the Jewish Community Museum brings to light the creative background of architect Artur Szalatnai-Slatinský through personal objects, drawings and works of art that reveal both his everyday life and the more intimate side of his personality. Visitors will find authentic equipment from his studio, documents and photographs from the early 20th century, and portraits by contemporaries that complement his architectural legacy. Another special feature are still lifes with floral motifs, exhibited together with original vases from his household. The exhibition thus offers a glimpse into lesser-known aspects of the creator and at the same time recalls the atmosphere of Bratislava, in which he lived and worked. The symbolic climax is its placement in the synagogue on Heyduková Street – a building that he designed himself and which becomes the natural framework for his life story.
