Sažetak
During the late 1960s and early 1970s, the younger generation of art critics took interest in new critical and theoretical/artistic patterns. Some Yugoslav artists took part in the international art scene which led to significant changes in the approach to the entire system of art. New forms of artistic expression demanded professional evaluation and the development of art criticism that would actively deal with the new situation. That opened the door to art critics of somewhat different theoretical approach who participated with great interest in the cultural life of their society. Among those with affirmative response to new events were Ješa Denegri, Želimir Koščević, Zvonko Maković, Davor Matičević and a few other critics some of which would be mentioned in this work. With their theoretical insights, criticism and reviews, the above mentioned authors contributed to the dissemination of information about the progressive (neo-avant-garde) stream of Western artistic practice and its repercussions for the Yugoslav scene. The very approach to art criticism also changed mostly due to texts by Italian art historian and theorist Germano Celant and his model of acritical criticism. Influential ideas also came from other theorists such as Giulio Carlo Argan, John Chandler, Joseph Kossuth, Lucy Lippard, Catherine Millet and Sol LeWitt. Primarily dealing with a segment of the progressive stream of art criticism of that time, this work will try to indicate the relationship between the already mentioned art critics and historians and the situation across the Yugoslav borders and how these developments influenced the Yugoslav art scene.
