Jerko Denegri

Born 1936 in Split. As a critic and art historian, he observed and influenced above all the generation of the 1970s, including New Tendencies. His theory of the "other line", in which he came up with a genealogy of the neo-avant-garde that deviated from canonic models, became an influential factor in recent artistic developments.
