Putopisi i studije 4: Likovne studije
The collection includes essays and criticisms dedicated to the visual arts, written over several decades. The focus of these texts is on the visual arts, with an emphasis on Croatian and European artists, and on the relationship between art and ideology.
Krleža, as one of the most significant Croatian writers and intellectuals of the 20th century, demonstrates deep erudition and critical sensibility in these texts, considering art in the context of cultural, historical and social movements.
Krleža analyzes the works of artists such as Vladimir Becić, Josip Račić and Miroslav Kraljević, members of the so-called Munich School, emphasizing their contribution to modernism in Croatian art. His essays often explore the tension between traditional and avant-garde approaches, as well as the influence of European artistic movements on the domestic scene. He particularly deals with issues of aesthetics, authenticity and the social role of art, criticizing conformism and superficiality in artistic expression. Krleža's reflections are imbued with philosophical and sociological insights, and his style is characterized by linguistic richness and polemical sharpness.
This collection testifies to Krleža's ability to connect visual art with a broader cultural and historical context, making it a valuable source for understanding Croatian and European art of the 20th century.
