From the turn of the century, Czech artists handily and convincingly responded to the coming and going of individual tendencies in art, in some cases even anticipating and helping to form these in the European and international context. Such was the role of František Kupka in relation to the origins of abstract painting. All of them endeavoured to grasp and build on the new approaches, and to develop them in their own original ways in active relationships with the centres of European art's development as well as conditions at home. Their work opened a new era in the history of modern civilization and culture, and defined the place and function of art in the democratic society of the inter-war Czechoslovak Republic.
