Century of Relativity20th Century Fine Arts Permanent Exposition
as from November 14, 2013 / Museum of modern ArtAttic (1890–1946), Picture Gallery (1947–2000)
The presentation portrays the best of our rich collection of 20th century art. This is, in brief, the basic aim of the new per-manent exposition located on two floors of the Museum of modern Art. One exhibition hall would not suffice for a per-manent exposition since the Museum’s collections include a broad spectrum of works – often contradicting in ideas and styles of which we can identify as important, or even without exaggeration, crucial not only for Czech modern and contem-porary art.
The Attic exhibition hall has been assigned for the 1st
half of the 20th century. We namely emphasize the paintings and sculptures which represent the basic streams in Czech modern art of this period. The introductory part uses se-lected works to document the echoes of impressionism (A. Hudeček, V. Radimský, A. Slavíček), and, as a contrast, we exhibit the representatives of the symbolist and deca-dent tendencies of the early 20th century here (F. Schön, J. Preisler). The exposition is however, based on a thorough and rich presentation of modern trends seen from expre-ssionism (E. Filla, O. Nejedlý), cubism (E. Filla, O. Gutfreund, B. Kubišta, A. Procházka), cubo-expressionism (H. M. Davringhausen, O. Gutfreund) up to civilism (J. Čapek) or, on the contrary, the exotism of the 1920s (A. Hoffmeister, J. Hněvkovský) without forgetting abstraction (F. Foltýn, A. Diviš, H. Wichterlová) and surrealism from the turn of 1920s and 1930s (V. Makovský, F. Muzika, Z. Sklenář, Toyen). The final chapter is then formed by works of Group 42 (F. Gross, F. Hudeček, K. Lhoták, J. Smetana) and by works re-flecting the war apocalypse (J. Liesler, V. Hejna, R. Michalik). We also paid special attention to modern landscape-paint-ing whose most prominent works describe (although with a differ ent language) the atmosphere of the time of their origin as well (O. Coubine, O. Kerhart, J. Šíma, V. Špála).
The second part of the permanent exhibition – in the Picture Gallery – has an ambition to give a worthy overview of the most important artistic tendencies after the end of WWII up to the end of the 20th century. The exposition is in-troduced with examples of work from distinguished solitaires of the 1950s (V. Fuka, V. Nováková, J. Sobotka) or authors who resumed the ideas of the pre-war avant-garde (J. Istler). We continue with post-war abstraction, works connected with various forms of lyrical and structural abstraction (J. Kotík, M. Medek, L. Padrtová, R. Piesen, A. Veselý). Next, examples of varied forms of lettrism (J. Kolář, S. Kovařík, E. Ovčáček) and neo-constructivism (H. Demartini, K. Malich, L. Přibyl, Z. Sýkora) dominate among many antagonistic tendencies of the 1960s which contrast with paintings and sculptures of the so called new figuration (V. Janoušková, V. Janoušek, E. Kmentová, K. Válová), namely Czech grotes-que (K. Nepraš) and later existential figuration of the 1970s and 1980s (V. Novák, M. Rittstein). The exposition concludes with conceptual and post-modern manifestations (J. David, M. Gabriel, F. Skála) whose influences had a clear impact on art in the last decade (T. Císařovský, D. Černý, J. Surůvka).
The Picture Gallery however, does not house Czech art only; we also strive to include the Czech collection into a broader context in relation to our acquisition efforts related to the Olomouc Central European Forum Project. Therefore, there are examples of exile authors (J. Knap, M. Kunc, O. Slavík, I. Theimer) and prominent Polish (M. Abakanowicz, A. Lenica, T. Kantor, K. Mikulski, W. Pawlak, R. Winiarski), Hungarian (I. Bak, L. Fehér, G. Jovánovicz, D. Mauer, I. Nádler, S. Pinczehelyi, E. Tot), and Slovak authors as well (M. Bočkay, M. Dobeš, O. Laubert, J. Meliš, L. Teren, M. Urbásek, J. Želibská).

Century of Relativity20th Century Fine Arts Permanent Exposition
as from November 14, 2013 / Museum of modern ArtAttic (1890–1946), Picture Gallery (1947–2000)
The presentation portrays the best of our rich collection of 20th century art. This is, in brief, the basic aim of the new per-manent exposition located on two floors of the Museum of modern Art. One exhibition hall would not suffice for a per-manent exposition since the Museum’s collections include a broad spectrum of works – often contradicting in ideas and styles of which we can identify as important, or even without exaggeration, crucial not only for Czech modern and contem-porary art.
The Attic exhibition hall has been assigned for the 1st
half of the 20th century. We namely emphasize the paintings and sculptures which represent the basic streams in Czech modern art of this period. The introductory part uses se-lected works to document the echoes of impressionism (A. Hudeček, V. Radimský, A. Slavíček), and, as a contrast, we exhibit the representatives of the symbolist and deca-dent tendencies of the early 20th century here (F. Schön, J. Preisler). The exposition is however, based on a thorough and rich presentation of modern trends seen from expre-ssionism (E. Filla, O. Nejedlý), cubism (E. Filla, O. Gutfreund, B. Kubišta, A. Procházka), cubo-expressionism (H. M. Davringhausen, O. Gutfreund) up to civilism (J. Čapek) or, on the contrary, the exotism of the 1920s (A. Hoffmeister, J. Hněvkovský) without forgetting abstraction (F. Foltýn, A. Diviš, H. Wichterlová) and surrealism from the turn of 1920s and 1930s (V. Makovský, F. Muzika, Z. Sklenář, Toyen). The final chapter is then formed by works of Group 42 (F. Gross, F. Hudeček, K. Lhoták, J. Smetana) and by works re-flecting the war apocalypse (J. Liesler, V. Hejna, R. Michalik). We also paid special attention to modern landscape-paint-ing whose most prominent works describe (although with a differ ent language) the atmosphere of the time of their origin as well (O. Coubine, O. Kerhart, J. Šíma, V. Špála).
The second part of the permanent exhibition – in the Picture Gallery – has an ambition to give a worthy overview of the most important artistic tendencies after the end of WWII up to the end of the 20th century. The exposition is in-troduced with examples of work from distinguished solitaires of the 1950s (V. Fuka, V. Nováková, J. Sobotka) or authors who resumed the ideas of the pre-war avant-garde (J. Istler). We continue with post-war abstraction, works connected with various forms of lyrical and structural abstraction (J. Kotík, M. Medek, L. Padrtová, R. Piesen, A. Veselý). Next, examples of varied forms of lettrism (J. Kolář, S. Kovařík, E. Ovčáček) and neo-constructivism (H. Demartini, K. Malich, L. Přibyl, Z. Sýkora) dominate among many antagonistic tendencies of the 1960s which contrast with paintings and sculptures of the so called new figuration (V. Janoušková, V. Janoušek, E. Kmentová, K. Válová), namely Czech grotes-que (K. Nepraš) and later existential figuration of the 1970s and 1980s (V. Novák, M. Rittstein). The exposition concludes with conceptual and post-modern manifestations (J. David, M. Gabriel, F. Skála) whose influences had a clear impact on art in the last decade (T. Císařovský, D. Černý, J. Surůvka).
The Picture Gallery however, does not house Czech art only; we also strive to include the Czech collection into a broader context in relation to our acquisition efforts related to the Olomouc Central European Forum Project. Therefore, there are examples of exile authors (J. Knap, M. Kunc, O. Slavík, I. Theimer) and prominent Polish (M. Abakanowicz, A. Lenica, T. Kantor, K. Mikulski, W. Pawlak, R. Winiarski), Hungarian (I. Bak, L. Fehér, G. Jovánovicz, D. Mauer, I. Nádler, S. Pinczehelyi, E. Tot), and Slovak authors as well (M. Bočkay, M. Dobeš, O. Laubert, J. Meliš, L. Teren, M. Urbásek, J. Želibská).
