A founding member of the Group of Six Artists, active in Zagreb from 1975, he critically examined the relationships between language, ideology, power, money, work, and everyday life, often employing irony, paradox, and visual appropriation. Through an experimental and politically incisive practice, Stilinović became a significant figure in the development of conceptual art in the former Yugoslavia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis unique book embodies this artistic philosophy.
