How do we talk about folk art in a context that has been closely linked to modernism in the visual arts? Interwar Central Europe, and Czechoslovakia especially, is often associated with modernist buildings, cubist sculptures and functionalist design. My talk builds on research that complicates this image and challenges the notion that in the 20th century, folk art was an outlived phenomenon and kitsch. Instead, I approach folk art as an active participant in modernity that – through its makers, promoters and users – adopted modern narratives and adapted to them. Focusing on specific examples of needlework in Central Europe of the first half of the 20th century, I aim to explore and expand the notion of folk art in terms of its content, purpose and geographical location. I argue that folk art practices were intimately intertwined with modern institutions, capitalist societies and economic structures that go beyond the village origins in Czechoslovakia and Central Europe.
