An account of the resource
Marijan Jevšovar (1922 - 1998) was a Croatian artist, born in Zagreb. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts of Zagreb in 1946. Between 1954 and 1956 he resided in France, where he approached the informal research, influenced in particular by Dubuffet. Since the late '50s he created paintings on surfaces which were coated in several layers of grey and white color, defined by the artist as a "negation of the form" obtained by "tainting the white surface of the canvas." During the '70s he also introduced the use of color in his works, though without ever distancing himself from this form of "anti-painting”. In parallel with this research, he has also created posters and art books. He has had exhibitions in Opatija (1959), Monaco (1960), Zagreb (1961, 1972, 1976, 1980, 1993), Dijon (1989), Varaždin (1990) and Umag (1993).
Jevšovar was among the founders of the group Gorgona, active in Zagreb between 1959 and 1966. The group also included Josip Vaništa, Julije Knifer, the sculptor Ivan Ivan Kožarić, critics Radoslav Putar, Matko Meštrović, Dimitrije Bašičević Mangelos and architect Miljenko Horvat. Every one of the artists of Gorgona maintained, developed and enjoyed full creative autonomy. Gorgona has supported various unconventional forms of artistic activity, mainly divided into three sections: the exhibitions at the Studio G (1961-1963, Schira Salon, Zagreb, Croatia), the publication of the anti-magazine "Gorgona" (1961-1966 each edition was a work of art in itself), and the creation of concepts, projects and various forms of artistic communication.

Description
An account of the resource
In March 1991 the collector and publisher Francesco Conz, in collaboration with the Muzej Suvremene Umjetnosti - MSU Zagreb, invited a few artists who had been part of Gorgona, the Croatian avant-garde group active between 1959 and 1966, to an artistic residency at the castle of Brunnenburg in Merano, Italy. This residency should have resulted in a publication linked to the monumental project Conz dedicated to Ezra Pound - <a href="http://www.patriziopeterlini.it/conz/lalivre.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">La Livre,</a> which was never completed. <br />During their residency, the five artists created thirteen works of art as well as fifteen hand-made copies of each work. All of which were created on the same size of paper. These works should have been part of a box, an art edition that initially should have included large-scale reproductions of seven of the group's old works, printed on canvas in Como, in addition to en eight obtained by merging the former in a continuous strip to create sort of a "collective work" - together with photographs documenting the residency, historical photographs and video interviews filmed in Brunnenburg. Conz died in 2010 but the box was never finished, although all of its components had been created, except for the folder that was supposed to contain them. The works of the artists have since remained in F. Conz's Archive. <br />During his stay, Jevšovar created three different works of art. In two of them, both dated March 5th, he placed a quadrangular figure on the center of a white background, while in his third work, dated March 6th, he proposed a rectangular strip of color on a brown background. The works are therefore linked to the central theme of the artist's research, which is an attack on tradition - not ironically as it was in Dadaism, but rather looking at the surface as a central problem of pictorial structure.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/2663/1/Jevšovar_untitled.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more.</a>
