Signalism

Signalism (in Serbo-Croatian: Signalizam, Serbian Cyrillic: Сигнализам) was an Neo-Avant-garde literary and art movement that rose up in the former country of Yugoslavia during the late 1960s, which later went international by the early 1970s. It was founded in the city of Novi Sad by Miroljub Todorovic, a poet, artist and theoristMiroljub Todorović | innervisions.com.
