The canon of Cubism and the case of Vincenc Kramář. On the place of Czech Cubism in the history of modern art
Original language description
The article deals with Cubism in the "other" Europe outside Paris, i.e. in the Czech lands during the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It follows the western historiography of Cubism from the 1960s of 20th century and the role Czech Cubism played in the Westerncanon of art history. It emphasized the role of collector and art historian Vincenc Kramář, whose collection of Picasso served as an example for many Czech artists since 1911. Kramář´s university training in Vienna allowed him to appreciate old masters through the prism of cubism and vice versa, he interpreted cubism through concepts adequate for the old art. Kramář created a transnational construct the world of art history, where medieval art, Caravaggio, Jacques-Louis David, Constable, William Blake and Cézanne become a prerequisite for the birth of Cubism. They are part of the transnational art history with Cubism as its culmination.
