Zenitism

Zenit, a monthly periodical about Zenitism, ran from 1921 until it was forbidden in 1926

Zenitism (Serbo-Croatian: Zenitizam / Зенитизам) was an avant-garde art movement in Yugoslavia that lasted from 1921 until 1926, first appearing in Zagreb from 1921 to 1924 and from 1924 in Belgrade.[1] It primarily involved visual arts, graphic design, poetry, literature, theatre, film, architecture and music.[2] Like other avant-garde movements at the time, it held anti-war, anti-bourgeois and anti-nationalist views and rejected traditional culture and art. Micić defined it as "abstract metacosmic expressionism."
