The paper discusses diplomatic and cultural political conditions for inauguration of the Pavilion of Yugoslavia at the Venice Biennale in 1938. The first and second official participation of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in this international art event (in 1938 and 1940) is analyzed within the context of re-established political relations between Italy and Yugoslavia, as well as according to the exhibition concept laid out by Milan Kašanin, the commissioner of both exhibitions. Particular consideration is given to the exhibition as a field of political dialogue and as the space for articulation of the Yugoslav ideology in the international context.
