Literary criticism about Jura Kaštelan

More than a decade has passed since the death of Jura Kaštelan. Another war was embedded in the bloody thread of our history and many changes followed it. It seems to me that during that time the attitude towards the poet changed a little; let's say crystallized, although his work is still not fully available and printed in some kind of edition based on solid research. So, he is known, but not through everything he wrote and disclosed. His collected works were printed in three books, and only those that were already well known to us.
There is nothing left for us to continue waiting for that part of the work that remained outside the books, and for that we need curiosity and patience.
Obviously, the poet's stay in literary purgatory is still going on, where finally, in the athanator of modernity, criteria that recognize not only what is characteristic, but also what stands out for originality and excellence begin to be woven into the opus. The path through the national literary purgatory is very complicated, it assumes multifaceted balances not only of the author's works but also of the period to which he belongs and which he himself shaped for the most part.
However, it is still undeniable that Jure Kaštelan is the poet of the Red Horse but also the author of the Preface to the EXAT 51 exhibition, and apparently one of the formulators of the manifesto (the unsigned text that stood at the entrance to the historical exhibition opened at the Society of Architects 1953) which made a strong impression on me.
As wise as he is cautious, Jure Kaštelan knew that as a proven "cavalry without a horseman" his friends could and even had to use him in the role of a Trojan horse in order to make it easier for everyone to expand the necessary space of freedom.
Defending (and explaining) the appearance of abstract painting in us, he varied one of T. S. Eliot's theses with the following words: "Following and developing tradition means to overcome it, to break it. This is confirmed by art and, more fully, by tradition.
