Alfred Freddy Krupa (14 June 1971,[1] Karlovac, Yugoslavia) is a Croatian painter and book illustrator. He graduated from the University of Zagreb Academy of Fine Arts in 1995. He published New Ink Art Manifesto in 1996 and departed to Tokyo Gakugei University in 1998.[2] He became well known to the general public in 1990 via the then popular Yugoslav weekly[3] "Vikend/Weekend".
