Czech Informel is described as a current of expressive structural abstraction that emerged from specific local conditions at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s.[1] It radically defined itself against all contemporary production and compromised creation and aestheticization of official art and became a turning point in the history of Czech art.[2] Foreign critics appreciated the uniqueness of the works[3] and wrote about a strong revolt of about thirty desperate avant-garde artists, which had no predecessor in Czechoslovakia.[4] The term "informel" was used from 1945 by the French critic Waldemar-George and taken up and claimed by the painter Michel Tapié in the very title of the exhibition Signifiants de l´informel staged in Paul Facchetti´s studio in 1951.[5] With international informel, which in Enrico Crispolti's conception includes a very heterogeneous group of artistic forms ranging from tachism to lyrical abstraction,[6] is the Czech informel related only by some creative techniques.
