Title A name given to the resource Duro Seder Description An account of the resource Đuro Seder (1927, Zagreb) is a Croatian artist who lives and works in Zagreb. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts of Zagreb in 1951 in the class of Antun Mezdjic, in 1953 he completed a painting course with Marino Tartaglia. In 1981 he became a teacher, and in 1983, a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts. He worked as an illustrator, graphic designer, editor of art magazines and 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 Kozaric, critics Radoslav Putar, Matko Meštrović, Dimitrije Bašičević Mangelos and the 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.

Title A name given to the resource Untitled Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Seder, Đuro Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1991 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Scotti, Marco Zinelli, Anna 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. 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. The two works created by Đuro Seder do not seem to resemble the production of his Gorgona years, as stated by the artist himself in an interview published in the monographic dossier of the magazine Ricerche di S/Confine. In fact, he proposes a drawing with his characteristic use of irregular shapes and semicircular lines, to which he adds a graphic element with the repetition of the word "peace". The second drawing is derived from a previous painting in which two profiles are merging into a single face. Seder himself remembers how during his residency, which immediately preceeded the war in Croatia, there was "a hint of intolerance in the air" and how the work was meant to hilight "the importance of unity among people". <br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/2660/1/Seder_untitled.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more.</a> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource image/jpeg Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Still Image Rights Holder A person or organization owning or managing rights over the resource.
