Bogdanka and Dejan Poznanović were very important people on the Yugoslavian cultural scene in the last decades of the 20th century. With their work on the 'Youth Tribune', they represented the social integrators of the then cultural scene in Novi Sad with the cultural space of Yugoslavia and Europe. Poznanovićs was one of the founders of the 'Youth Tribune', which promoted new understandings in art and literature as opposed to the official propaganda of 'socialist realism. At that time, the 'tribune' was a meeting place for forbearers of new tendencies in culture, such as Vasko Popa, Oskar Davičo, Miodrag Pavlović, Branko Miljković, Tomaž Šalamun, Michelangelo Pistoleto, Marina Abramović, Slovenian, Macedonian, Croatian and artists from all over Yugoslavia. In the period from 1954, the Tribune was a place of integration of artists from Novi Sad and Vojvodina, whose critical and conceptual work influenced the formation of a unique cultural identity of this area. Among these artists are Slavko Bogdanović, Miroslav Mandić, Slobodan Tišma, Mirko Radojičić, Čeda Drča, Vladimir Kopicl, the Bosch + Bosch group, the OHO group, etc.
