Max Švabinský

Photograph at the Max Švabinský Memorial

Max Švabinský (17 September 1873 – 10 February 1962) was a Czech painter, draughtsman, graphic designer, and professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. Švabinský is considered one of the more notable artists in the history of Czech painting and produced significant work during the first half of the 20th century. He was relatively unusual among modernist artists in that his work was accepted by the communist regime; this was due at least in part to his having formed his artistic personality prior to 1900, prior to the advent of cubism. His work was part of the painting event in the art competition at the 1932 Summer Olympics.
