From Mucha to Poetism : Tradition and the Avant-garde in interwar Czechoslovakia
Original language description
In 1928, Czechoslovakia celebrated ten years of its existence. The Exhibition of Czechoslovak Culture that was organized in Brno portrayed the young state as modern and economically and culturally thriving. The exhibition ground was designed by leading progressive architects and the art section contained works of contemporary painters and sculptures. Yet in the same year, Alfons Mucha donated to the state his series of twenty large canvases depicting the journey of the Czech nation and the Slavs through history in a language many described as traditional. This was also the year that the International Ethnographic Congress took place in Prague, as well as the year when the Poetism Manifesto was published. The paper focuses on the idea of traditions in the interwar period, their different interpretations and roles in the political environment of Czechoslovakia in the 1920s and 1930s. It is concerned with their rejection as well as creation of new traditions by artists, art critics and art historians.
