Summary

Josip Vaništa: Gorgona 1

Numbered copy: 6/300 Josip Vaništa, the founder of the Gorgona group, designed the first edition, which consisted of the same photograph of an empty shop window on all 9 pages. A magazine with screen printing and relief halftone prints. Đura Seder, Josip Vaništa, Ivan Kožarić, Miljenko Horvat, theorists Dimitrije Bašićević Mangelos, Radoslav Putar and Matko Meštrović. Gorgona had neither a program nor a manifesto and was not a painting group in the usual sense. It is based on the idea of ​​spiritual kinship in a much broader sense than the framework of a certain stylistic program implies, in it artists sought spiritual and intellectual freedom. Each of the artists in Gorgona maintained and developed complete creative autonomy. She advocated unconventional forms of artistic activity. The forms of Gorgona's activity can be reduced to three groups: exhibitions in Studio G (1961-1963, Salon Schira in Zagreb), publication of the publication Gorgona (1961-1966, an anti-magazine, each issue functioned as a separate work of art), concepts, projects and various forms of artistic communication. The most significant design and painting contributions of that era were concentrated around her. It preceded the later forms of the New Art Practice.
