Sažetak (engleski)
Focusing on the period between 1994 and 2006, this study of the Soros Foundation and its spin-offs employs a mixed-method approach to explore the structure of the visual arts’ scene in Croatia and the role of Soros’ organisations within it. Based on a quantitative analysis of network visualisations and a qualitative structural analysis of narrative interviews, which are theoretically framed around the notions of network and complexity, the article moves the research agenda away from assumptions about what Soros’ organisations were supposed to be, to a more embedded understanding of what they actually were in a specific space-time. The analysis foregrounds varying strategies and trajectories of Soros’ Croatia-based organisations. It demonstrates that they served mostly to maintain continuity with the socialist period during the 1990s, while real structural change, at least partially due to Soros’ influence, happened only after 1999 with the emergence of the independent cultural scene.
Metodologija (engleski)
The dataset was partially constructed as part of the PhD research “Digital Art History and Artists’ Networks in Croatia in the 1990s and 2000s”. It includes data from four periodicals published in Croatia between 1991 and 2006 (Kontura, Arkzin, Vijenac, and Zarez). The first dataset included all of the periodical issues and authors of texts, while the second one included all of the art critics and the artists / cultural institutions they mentioned in art criticism. This was expanded in the present article with the addition of the relation ‘co-mention in contribution’, in which two institutions are connected if they were mentioned in the same contribution of a periodical. Both the mentioned PhD and article, give a more detailed explanation on how the dataset was constructed.
