Summary/Abstract: The Association of Moravian Visual Artists (SVUM) based in Hodonín became one of the most important cultural groupings after the establishment of the independent Czechoslovak state in the first decades of the 20th century. The active association with the idea of Moravianship of the creators emerged from the 1890s around the painter Joža Uprka, who called for the emancipation of Moravian artistic life as an alternative to European modernism. The „Association“ gradually developed into an art institution, using the traditions of Moravian Slovácko and forming an ideological platform of the late Moravian cultural revival.
