Sažetak
The activity of the Independent Artists Group between 1921 and 1927 consisted mainly of participating in group exhibitions or of individual exhibitions of the majority of group members. The Group insisted on exhibiting their works in places outside major artistic centres of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, especially in Croatia and in Vojvodina. In the course of 1924 and 1925 the Group organized two series of exhibitions, first in Novi Sad and Sombor, and then in Stari Bečej, Novi Bečej, Senta, Velika Kikinda (Kikinda) and Veliki Bečkerek (Zrenjanin). The Independent Artists Group also participated in the 5th Yugoslav Art Exhibition (V jugoslovenska umetnička izložba) in Belgrade, where they exhibited alongside artists of the Spring Salon (Proljetni salon), as well as in Novi Sad in the 6th Yugoslav Art Exhibition (VI jugoslovenska umetnička izložba), which was their last exhibition. Members of the group changed, so that all exhibitions in question included the works of Jerolim Miše and Vladimir Varlaj, and some of them the works of Ljubo Babić, Jozo Kljaković, Zlatko Šulentić, Frano Kršinić, Marin Studin, Ivan Meštrović, Vladimir Becić and Krsto Hegedušić. The Independent Artists Group represents one of the artistic collectives active during the interwar period, brought together solely on the basis of artistic criteria. Furthermore, incited by the ideas of de-metropolisation of art, of bringing culture closer to wider public in light of the influence of post-revolutionary Russia, as well as by the intention to exert a commercial effect, the Group started the aforementioned series of travelling exhibitions. New findings enabled the identification of Jeronim Miše as the ideator of the said process, while the research of archival documents and media coverage permitted the analysis of these exhibitions and the attempt of identifying the exhibited works, as well as an inquiry into the afterlife of sold paintings.
