Sažetak
The publications of the club refer to four magazines published in the period from 1910 to 1929. These are collection of works Mi (We - 1910), magazine Književni prilog(Literary Contribution – 1910 –1915), fun publication and calendar Jeka od Osijeka (Echo from Osijek – 1918 –1924) and Jubilarni almanah (Anniversary Almanac –1929). Since the publications encompass all the club’s activities, appertaining research could efficiently evaluate the club’s work in general. On such an occasion, one should state that the club’s activities significantly declined after 1929, which coincides with the political circumstances at the time. The total club’s publications include 2,080 pages of written material. At the end, the club’s work was organized in nine sections (clubs). The fine art section was among the first who announced their activities within the club. Moreover, its importance is disclosed by the fact that the club changed its name, due to the artists that joined it, into the Croatian Writers’ and Artists’ Club. The fine art section was an unavoidable factor of the development of fine arts in Osijek. This is witnessed by the datum that between 1920 and 1940, Osijek hosted 123 solo and group fine art exhibitions directly or indirectly initiated by the club. The exhibitions were supported by the then powerful Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Osijek. The diverse club’s activities contributed to the revival of Croatian national feelings and the cultural life of the city in general, particularly to the part thereof related to fine arts. The club was primarily focused on spreading Croatian literature by means of publications and publishing. In that view, the club remained on the local level. However, the achievements of the fine art section made it known on the national level and thus secured a prominent place thereon.
