The diploma thesis De Stijl and Avant-Garde Art in the Czechoslovakian Interwar Period focuses on the Dutch art movement De Stijl (1917-1931) and the relationship of its protagonists to the Czech avant-garde scene of the interwar era; both on the practical as well as theoretical level. The work aims to examine the yet rather insufficiently mapped interconnection between the creative output of De Stijl's artists, led by the movement founder Theo van Doesburg, and the body of work of Czech artists active in the First Czechoslovak Republic period. The figures of Theo van Doesburg and Karel Teige are prominent throughout the whole thesis. These two artists were considered as leading personalities and ambassadors of the avant-garde movements in their respective countries. The thesis focuses especially on architecture as the relations between the Dutch and Czech artists were the most salient and most intensive in this area.
