Ognjenka Finci, Prof. Dr. Emeritus, a long-time professor, architect and designer, has passed away in Sarajevo.

Finci was a professor at the Faculty of Architecture and the Academy of Fine Arts of the University of Sarajevo and the author of numerous projects in various fields of architecture and urbanism, unique and graphic design, as well as written professional and scientific papers.

Minister Sanja Vlaisavljević sent her condolences to the Finci family:

“On behalf of the Federal Ministry of Culture and Sports and my personal behalf, I extend my sincere condolences to the family and friends of the esteemed Ognjenka Finci. Ognjenka Finci was more than a professor, more than an architect and designer. She lived art and her architecture. In seeking solutions for urban space, she saw and cared for the less visible, the neglected, the minor. Visible and invisible, small and large, the refinement of space were the path to creating all works. However, the words of students are more important than all awards, and Finci always had the most beautiful and greatest words of them,” emphasised Minister Vlaisavljević.
