Alfred Freddy Krupa
Alfred Freddy Krupa (Krūppa) (14 June 1971, Karlovac, Yugoslavia) 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 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].
In 2014 Krupa created an artist's book "Modern Ink Painting, what is it? or the Original Art Work", in 2021 collected by the Museum of Modern Art in New York (MoMA)[8][9]
In 2022 Todd Dobbs and Aileen Benedict from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (NC, USA) & Zbigniew Ras from the Polish-Japanese Academy of Information Technology (Warsaw, Poland) in the peer-reviewed article "Jumping into the artistic deep end: building the catalogue raisonné" used in its research dataset, among 90 artists, 598 artworks of Alfred Freddy Krupa.[10]
