= Global Avantgarde Croatia | Serbia | Slovenia 23; Futurisms in the World p.241; Benson p.270f and 287; Mansbach p.216ff. Avgust Černigoj studied for one semester in 1924 at the Bauhaus in Weimar with Kandinsky and Moholy-Nagy. Only two issues of Tank were published between 1927 and 1928: no.1½ and no.1½-3. Ideologically, Tank can be considered the successor to Zenit (banned in 1926), celebrating the "Barbarian Genius of the Balkans". Containing free typography, entirely set in lower case. "Inside both issues, representatives of all "isms" of early twentieth-century art neighbored one another. The poems and essays revealed a similar variety, authored by Micić, Tristan Tzara, Anatoly Lunacharsky, Henri Barbusse, and Kurt Schwitters, to name a few of the most famous" (Benson). "Despite its short life, the journal was among the most influential cultural enterprises of the decade, enabling the Slovenian progressive front to participate in the international modernist movement as a full confederate. Ljubljana became briefly a capital of the European avant-garde through the pages of Tank, one of its principal objectives and accomplishments being the abrogation of traditional borders among the various arts and letters" (Mansbach). Extremely rare highlight of Slovenian avantgarde.
