Marina Benažić is a professor of art history and comparative literature. Since 2006, she has been the curator of the Tošo Dabac Archive, and its manager since January 2007. Her position as manager of the Archive means that she is the chief executive of the Archive, the main organizer of all events organized by the Archive, and also makes her the most conversant with the contents of the Archive.
Benažić was not associated with the socialist regime, nor was she involved in the cultural activities of the opposition. Her importance to the Collection rests on the fact that she is its manager.
