THE STORY OF THE CZECH DESIGN. FROM CUBISM TO THE 21 CENTURY. // full version
Český design je založený na kvalitní umělecko-řemeslné práci, českém kutilství a kvalitním tradičním materiálu. Má za sebou dlouholetou tradici i světový ohlas.
Česká centra připravila výstavu při příležitosti oslav stého výročí založení Československa. Navazuje na reprezentativní publikaci „Design v českých zemích 1900-2000”, kterou vydalo Uměleckoprůmyslové museum v Praze ve spolupráci s vydavatelstvím Academia. Výstavu doplňuje kolekce ikon českého designu – předmětů, které jasně prokázaly svou nadčasovou kvalitu mimo jiné i tím, že se stále, či znovu vyrábějí.

Toyen 2 脫燕 (1902-1980) Surrealism Czech
tonykwk39@gmail.com
Marie Cerminov 瑪麗賽米樂褔á (21 September 1902, Prague – 9 November 1980, Paris), known as Toyen 脫燕, was a Czech painter, draftsperson and illustrator and a member of the surrealist movement.
From 1919 to 1920, Toyen attended UMPRŮM (Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design) in Prague. She worked closely with fellow Surrealist poet and artist Jindřich Styrsky until Štyrsky's death. They joined the Devětsil group in 1923 and exhibited with the group. In the early 1920s Toyen travelled to Paris, and soon returned there with Štyrský. While living in Paris, the two founded an artistic alternative to Abstraction and Surrealism, which they dubbed Artificialism. They returned to Prague in 1928.
Toyen referred to herself in the masculine case out of rejection for gender in true avant-garde fashion. She purposefully cast aside the confining trappings of femininity in order to access the almost exclusively male modernist art world. Toyen's sketches, book illustrations, and paintings were frequently erotic and she contributed erotic sketches for Štyrský's Eroticka Revue (1930–33). This journal was published on strict subscription terms based on a circulation of 150 copies. Styrsky also published books under the imprint Edice 69, some of which Toyen illustrated. For example, she illustrated the Marquis de Sade's Justine. Also of note, she contributed pieces in Die Frau als Künstlerin, Woman as an Artist, the prestigious 1928 survey of women artists in Western civilization.
Toyen and Styrska gradually grew more interested in Surrealism. After their associates Vitezslav Nezval and Jindřich Honzl met André Breton in Paris, they founded the Czech Surrealist Group along with other artists, writers, and the composer Jaroslav Ježek.
Forced underground during the Nazi occupation and Second World War, she sheltered her second artistic partner, Jindřich Heisler, a poet of Jewish descent who had joined the Czech Surrealist Group in 1938. The two relocated to Paris in 1947, before the Communist takeover of Czechoslovakia in 1948. In Paris, they worked with André Breton, Benjamin Péret, and other surrealists.
瑪麗賽米樂褔（1902年9月21日，布拉格 - 1980年11月9日，巴黎），被稱為距離Toyen，是捷克畫家，製圖員和插畫和超現實主義運動的成員。
從1919年至1920年，距離Toyen出席UMPRUM（美術學院，建築與設計）在布拉格。她與其他超現實主義詩人和藝術家英德日赫Styrsky密切合作，直到Styrsky的死亡。他們加入了Devetsil組於1923年，與集團展出。在20世紀20年代初，距離Tøyen前往巴黎，並很快與Styrska回到那裡。雖然生活在巴黎，兩人創辦了一個藝術的替代抽象和超現實主義，他們被稱為Artificialism。他們在1928年回到了布拉格。
距離T0yen提到自己在男性的情況下，出排斥在真正的時尚前衛的性別。她故意唾棄的女人味的服飾限制，以訪問幾乎完全是男性的現代主義藝術的世界。距離Tøyen的草圖，書籍插圖和繪畫經常被色情和她貢獻了Styrska的Eroticka歌劇團（1930 - 1933年）色情草圖。該雜誌刊登報告根據對150份的發行量嚴格訂閱條款。 Styrsky還出版書籍的印記下Edice 69，其中一些距離Tøyen說明。例如，她表示薩德侯爵的海寧。另外值得注意的是，她作出了貢獻模具弗勞阿爾斯Künstlerin，女人件作為一個藝術家，在西方文明的女藝術家的著名的1928年的調查。
距離T0yen和Styrska逐漸成長更熱衷於超現實主義。之後他們的同夥維捷斯拉夫Nezval和英德日赫Honzl在巴黎會見安德烈·布雷頓，他們成立了捷克超現實主義集團與其他藝術家，作家和作曲家雅羅斯拉夫Jezek的一起。
在納粹佔領和第二次世界大戰期間被迫在地下，她庇護她的第二個藝術伴侶，英德日赫海斯勒，誰曾在1938年加入了超現實主義的捷克集團猶太裔詩人兩個搬遷到巴黎在1947年，捷克斯洛伐克共產黨接管之前1948年在巴黎，他們曾與安德烈·布勒東，本傑明·佩雷特和其他超現實主義者。

Episode 3: Czech Cubism
In Prague during the years leading up to World War One an unusual and distinct style of architecture was created.
Developed by a small, radical group of young architects motivated by desires to create architecture originated from the artistic imagination alone, free from external influence. Tragically short lived; only a few examples exist of this idealistic and unique architecture.

Prague In Your Pocket - Museum of Cubism/Kubista
Prague In Your Pocket editor, Jacy Meyer, shows us one of the most striking examples of Czech cubism, the Josef Gocars 1911 masterpiece, the House of the Black Madonna. Originally a department store and so named after the baroque statue rescued from the previous building. Its a feat in itself that he managed to build such a revolutionary façade that somehow manages to fit in the Baroque surroundings.
Pop inside the Kubista shop on the ground floor to browse books and reproductions of Cubist applied art. Head upstairs to have a look at the Cubist spiral staircase and the beautifully reconstructed Grand Café Orient. The second to fourth floors of the building now house the excellent Museum of Cubism, which shows original Czech Cubist paintings, graphics (including a weird Cubist view of Prague), furniture, sculptures, and models and photographs of buildings.

Vladimr Slapeta - Czech Architecture 1918-1938
Lecture date:1997-01-29
The culture of the new-founded state of Czechoslovakia after the First World War was orientated and inspired by the avant-garde movement in the major cities of Europe, especially Paris, Berlin and Amsterdam. The short-lived national movement in architecture termed rondo-cubism was later replaced by the new spirit of White Functionalism, which dominated Czechoslovakian architecture until the beginning of the Second World War and which has subsequently come to be seen as one of the most interesting, though often overlooked, contributions to the International Style.
Vladimir Slapeta is a former Dean of the Architecture Faculty at the Czech Technical University in Prague and a Professor of Architecture Theory and History.
