Alfred Freddy Krupa (Krūppa) (14 June 1971) is a Croatian contemporary artist (painter, master draughtsman, book artist, art photographer and art teacher)[1][2].

Krupa, the author of the "New Ink Art Manifesto" (1996)[3], is considered one of the pioneers of the New Ink Art movement and as one of the leading representatives of the modern European ink painting[4][5]. The original manuscript of the New Ink Art Manifesto is the property of the documenta (exhibition) archiv, records and papers collection (Aktenarchiv) in Kassel (the access number docA-97)[6]. On 23rd April 2013, the Tokyo-based online magazine Beyond Calligraphy published Krupa's second programmatic text under the title Sumi-e from the Perspective of a Traditional Academically-trained European Artist where the artist further explains his own original views and again declares his artistic program (sometimes it is referred to as The 2nd New Ink Art Manifesto)[7].
