RESONANCES OF CUBISM IN SLOVAK FINE ART

Looking back at the recognition of cubisation in three decades of Slovak fine art, different levels of the resonance emerge: direct link to Paris as a place, where cubism was born, promotion of cubisation in the artistic environment in Budapest and Prague, and again the link to Paris, this time as a place of Picasso’s followers applying cubisation in their works. The present study focuses on resonances of cubism in Slovak fine art, particularly in painting, in the first half of the 20th century, specifically in the period between the end of WWI and the establishment of Communist dictatorship in 1948.
