Founder of Zenit journal. The first artist to collaborate with Micić and to contribute to Zenit's original orientation towards Expressionism was Vilko Gecan. Micić's Zenitism was supported only by a small number of the youngest Yugoslav artists, who joined and left after varying period of collaboration. Mihailo S. Petrov did linocuts of an expressionistic-abstract structure, wrote poems and published translations on abstract art for Zenit. From 1922-1925, Jo Klek's (Josip Seissel) drawings, aquarelles and collages were the best representatives of Zenitist art. Micić's important mission was collecting and exhibiting avant-garde arts in Zenit editorial offices in Zagreb and Belgrade, and the organisation of Zenit international exhibition of new art in Belgrade 1924.
