ABSTRACT REPRODUCTIVE AS
PRODUCTIVE ART
Chromatic fantasies of the composer Alexander Scriabin, painter Alexej Jawlensky and pianist Ivo Pogorelich introduction →
In the book
Collection of essays in which, on the example of three seemingly unrelated artists, the author answer to the question of whether and when reproductive art could be considered as productive art
From the book
Abstract reproductive art is a novelty in art terminology: it is an artistic reproduction that renders the original work completely unrecognizable, despite being completely unchanged

In June 2022, The Wreath featured my essay on Oswald Spengler, the German philosopher of history and culture, and his philosophical-literary masterpiece, The Decline of the West. This was done on the occasion of the 180th anniversary of the founding of Matrix Croatica. In 2023, the essay was selected as a required text for essay writing in the National Matriculation in the Croatian language. Additionally, The Oswald Spengler Society from Germany chose it as the introductory text to the book of scientific papers from the international conference From Herodotus to Spengler: Comparing Civilisations throughout Time and Space, thus it will soon be published in English.
