About the Item
Abstract, modernist sculpture done in bronze by pne of the leading Yugolsav artists, Ivan Kožarić. The work is signed on the back of the sculpture.
Modernist sculptor Ivan Kožarić, a leading figure of contemporary Yugoslav, and later, Croatian art for more than six decades, and who repeatedly defied convention through playful, sometimes impossible encounters in public space, has died at age ninety-nine. After taking a central role in the avant-garde of late-’40s former Yugoslavia, Kožarić in 1959 cofounded Gorgona, a widely influential Croatian collective (and short-lived “anti-magazine”) premised on spiritual kinship and artistic autonomy. “I am not an artist,” he once said. “I came to a position where I now can say I am on the trail of art, and this is enough for me.” Although his searching practice would attract an international following, Kožarić remains best-known in his home country, especially in his longtime base of Zagreb, which hosts many of his simple but exuberantly open-ended public sculptures, such as a bronze sphere titled Prizemljeno Sunce (Grounded Sun), 1971, which sits in the heart of the capital.
In 1959, alongside painters Marijan Jevšovar, Đuro Seder, and Julije Knifer; critic Radoslav Putar; and architect Miljenko Horvat, Kožarić cofounded Gorgona, whose members sought to forge aesthetics—and a language for them—outside of the state’s socialist practices, often by subverting public space, which was rarely truly public in Yugoslavia; one of Kožarić’s memorable proposals involves slicing off the top of the local Sljeme mountain (the project remains unrealized).
