The Bosniak Institute is an institution of culture and scholarship in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It has a museum and a gallery, a cultural centre and a library, a publishing house and a cultural centre. The institute is the result of its founder, Adil Zulfikarpašić, a donor ( waqf), businessman, politician and promotor of cultural and educational life in Bosnia and Herzegovina. With his wife Tatjana Zulfikarpašić, he collected and preserved cultural heritage and contemporary production about Bosnia and Herzegovina, ranging from documents, photographs, postcards, maps, to books, encyclopaedias, journals, and other archival and library materials. The Bosniak Institute was founded in Zurich in 1988, and after the aggression against Bosnia and Herzegovina the entire stock was moved to Sarajevo, and opened in 2001.

The Bosniak Institute includes a library, archive, art collection, galleries, reading rooms and researcher and scholar study rooms, conference rooms, and other amenities.

Gazi Husrev-bey's Hammam

The institute is situated in the centre of Sarajevo, at Mula Mustafe Bašeskije 21, adjacent to Gazi Husrev-begov hamam (Gazi Husrev-bey's Hammam), a public bath ( hammam) built in 1535. Architects Hasan Ćemalović and Ahmet Kapidžić were awarded the Sixth of April Sarajevo Award in 2001 for the building, library, and a successful restoration of the Gazi Husrev-bey's Hammam. Two endowments (waqfs) are materialised in the Hammam building, first, Gazi Husrev-bey's, established when Islamic culture, education and scholarship were at their outset in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Bosniak Institute.

Library

The library of the Bosniak Institute has over 250,000 items (books, journals, maps, articles and other materials) ranging from the 14th century to contemporary scholarly and trade-specific resources of the 21st century. The library includes the following sections: Bosnica, Croatica, Serbica, Turcica, Islamica, Yugoslavica, manuscripts, reference works, as well as the collections such as Judaica, Bogomils, Sanjak, Emigrantica, and the 1992-1995 war section.

Art collection

The art collection of the Bosniak Institute evolved during several decades, originally as the private collection of Adil Zulfikarpašić and his wife Tatjana, and subsequently as the collection of the Bosniak Institute.

The collection includes more than 1500 artworks (paintings, engravings, and sculptures) by many Bosnian authors, from Ismet Mujezinović, Hakija Kulenović, Rizah Å tetić, Ibrahim Ljubović, Vojo Dimitrijević, Mersad Berber, Affan Ramić, Mevludin EkmeÄić, to Safet Zec, Salim Obralić, Mehmed Zaimović, and others. The donated private collections of Mersad Berber, Mevludin EkmeÄić, Ismet Rizvić, Edo Numankadić and others are particularly significant.

Archive

The archive includes more than 8000 items ranging from the 15th century to the modern age.
