The Annual Umjetnost i mi: Jadranka Damjanov’s Contribution to the Beginnings of Visual Arts Education in Croatia

Abstract

This paper is dedicated to the student journal Umjetnost i mi [Art and Us], an art history annual that was edited and published by the students of the VII Gymnasium in Zagreb under the guidance of Professor Jadranka Damjanov in the 1960s. This valuable and high-quality publication serves as an indispensable source for research into the beginnings of visual arts education in Croatian secondary schools, while its innovativeness and creativity make it relevant within the modern educational context as well.
