%0 Journal Article %T Danica Pinterovi£¿ and Josip Leovi£¿ %A Zec %A Daniel %J - %D 2018 %X Sa£¿etak The paper presents various forms of cooperation and professional work of Danica Pinterovi£¿ related to Osijek artist and restorer Josip Leovi£¿. This cooperation existed primarily in the period of Leovi£¿¡¯s work at the Museum of Slavonia from 1947 to 1963 and included the museum and professional-publicist work of Danica Pinterovi£¿. Even though we have to take into account Danica Pinterovi£¿¡¯s published texts about Josip Leovi£¿, the primary interest of this study are the unpublished and the unknown records by Danica Pinterovi£¿, those from her work diaries, which are today seen as archival material and have its signifi cance. The Work Diary, kept by Danica Pinterovi£¿ who took note of everyday work and work tasks of all Museum employees, is in a sense also a diary of Josip Leovi£¿¡¯s work. Thus, it is an important resource for Leovi£¿¡¯s work biography, but also for the history of restoration works performed by Josip Leovi£¿ on certain artwork displayed in the Museum of Slavonia and Museum of Fine Arts. Using the information from the Work Diaries by Danica Pinterovi£¿, the author chronologically lists and cites the records of Leovi£¿¡¯s museum activities, as recorded by the diary writer. The first significant expert contributions about the life and work of Josip Leovi£¿, important to become familiarized with artist¡¯s biography and his opus, were presented by Danica Pinterovi£¿. She was the one who actually introduces Josip Leovi£¿ in professional literature and thus established later historical and artistic considerations of Leovi£¿¡¯s opus. She wrote and published several professional articles on Leovi£¿¡¯s artistic and restorative work, including a summarized biography. She also wrote about one of Leovi£¿¡¯s biggest exhibitions for daily newspaper and, in the end, wrote an expert review of Leovi£¿¡¯s opus on the occasion of his death %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=317807
