extensive collection of letters and postcards from prominent figures in the Czech avant-garde movement; business
correspondence regarding exhibitions and conferences; several volumes of photographs of set designs, costume designs,
and production designs; architectural sketches; and several original drawings of projects in the decorative arts
representative of an early period in his career.

Biographical / Historical Note
Vlastislav Hofman (1884-1964), was born in Jičín, a small town in northern Bohemia. Hofman's father was a shoemaker and
an avid socialist. He was responsible for organizing a social-democratic organization in Jičín and in the surrounding area.
Vlastislav Hofman's early exposure to political activity was to later inspire his work in the theater, such as in the designs for
the "Husité" and "Svítání." From 1902 to 1907 Hofman attended the Czech Technical University in Prague, where he studied
architecture under the direction of Jan Emil Koula and J. Schulz and met fellow artists Pavel Janák and Josef Chochol.
After becoming an architect, Hofman participated in numerous design competitions for public buildings in Prague and other
cities. Hofman worked closely with Chochol, Janák, and Josef Gočár in developing a Cubo-Expressionist movement in
architecture. Few of Hofman's projects were ever realized, but a handful of innovative designs such as the Prague Dáblice
cemetery (1912-1913) gained Hofman notable acclaim for his architectural work. Together with Chochol, Janák, and Josef
Gočár and others, the group extended their Cubo-Expressionist ideas to furniture and ceramic design. In other countries,
Cubist principles were rarely applied to the decorative arts, in contrast to the highly original and innovative Czech
movement. The Prague group is considered one of the most important Cubist centers after Paris, and the Expressionist
element of its work has been observed to keenly reflect the agitation and upheaval of the times.
At various points in his career, Hofman was affiliated with several Prague artists' groups and other fundamental institutions
in the development of Czech modernism. He was briefly a member of Artěl and early in his career joined Spolek výtvarných
umělců Mánes (the Mánes Association of Plastic Artists). In 1911, he was a founding member of the avant-garde group
Skupina výtvarných umělců. The group was responsible for several large exhibitions in Prague and published a journal
entitled Umělcký měsíčník, edited by Josef Čapek. In 1912, Hofman left the group, along with many of his artistic allies, and
returned to Mánes. Among Hofman's closest collaborators of the Czech avant-garde were Josef Čapek, Václav Špála, Emil
Filla, Antonín Procházka, Vincenc Beneš, Otto Guttfreund, Chochol, Janák, and Gočár. Hofman designed illustrations for a
number of books, among a collection of short stories by Karel Čapek in 1916. The artistic activities of Hofman and his peers
were interrupted by World War II, for which many, including Hofman, were called to serve. Upon return from the war,
Hofman joined the group Tvrdošíjiným, an early product of newly-independent Czechoslovakia, and exhibited work at their
first show in 1918. In 1921, he published a collection of woodcuts entitled Fysiognomie. The publications were numbered
and each woodcut is hand-painted in watercolor. (The Getty Research Institute holds copy number 10B).
In the early 1910s, Hofman corresponded frequently with his close friend, the playwright Jan Bartoš, during which time they
discussed psychological portraits of characters in the novels of Fyodor Dostoevsky. Both artists claim to have been inspired
by Dostoevsky's characters. These drawings brought Hofman's artwork to the attention of the director Karel Hugo Hilar. In

1919, Hofman began his career in the theater with a production of Antonín Dvořák's play "Husité," directed by Hilar. This
was the first of a number of historical productions that would occupy Hofman throughout his career. Several of Hofman's
other production designs, such as those for William Shakespeare's "Bouře" (The Tempest") in 1920 are distinguished by a
characteristic intensity of lighting effects. The Cubist strain of Hofman's work is evident in many of his set designs, among
others "Královna Kristýna" (1922). On two separate occasions (1929 and 1939) Hofman created sets for the science fiction
play "R.U.R.," written by the foremost Czech writer of the period, Karel Čapek. Altogether, he designed sets and costumes
for close to 300 productions and throughout his career worked with several leading Czech dramaturgists, among them
Hilar, Vojta Novák, Jan Bor and Karel Dostal.
Hofman was recognized repeatedly for his work in the theater, and received awards for his designs at home and abroad. In
1936 he was invited to Rome with Hilar to take part in a large international theater conference. Many of the most
prominent twentieth century playwrights, writers and artists were in attendance, including Luigi Pirandello, Vsevolod
Meyerhold, Walter Gropius, William Butler Yeats, George Bernard Shaw, Filippo Tommaso Marínetti, and Maurice
Maeterlinck.
Hofman remained active in the theater until the 1950s. In 1951, he designed a long series of costume designs for the film
"Anna proletářka," produced in 1953. Several exhibitions of Hofman's work were organized during the latter part of his
career. A large monograph on his theatrical career was published in 1951. Since Hofman's death in 1964 at the age of 80,
his work has been featured in several international exhibitions in Germany, Italy, the United States, and in the Czech
Republic.

Acquisition Information
A collection of architectural and decorative drawings by Hofman was acquired in 1985 (Accession numbers 850909*,
850909**). In 1990, a large collection of papers, printed matter and photographs was purchased from Hofman's esate
(Accession number 900189). The oversized drawings were integrated into the collection of papers soon thereafter.
Processing History
The archive was preliminarily processed after acquisition. Elizabeth Durst reorganized the oversized collection and
completed the processing and cataloging of the collection in the Fall of 1996. Of the many resources consulted for this task,
the following are notable: Vlastislav Hofman, Architektur des böhmischen Kubìsmus by François Burkhardt for verifying the
dates and titles of the original works; Vlastislav Hofman: 30 let výtvarnické práce na Českých Jevistíchand La scène
moderne Tchèque by Miroslav Rutte and František Michálek Bartoš for identifying individual production designs and
researching Hofman's work in the theater; Czech Cubism: Architecture, Furniture, Decorative Artsand Czech Modernism,
1900-1945 for background material on the period; and several exhibition catalogs and curricula vitea for documenting
Hofman's professional career.
Related Archival Materials

Series II. Correspondence, 1916-1963
Physical Description: 0.83 linear feet(2 boxes)
Scope and Content Note
This series contains letters and postcards received by Hofman from prominent Czech artists,
writers, dramaturgists and critics. Some of these letters are of a more personal nature, but
many provide interesting discussions on contemporary trends in art. The letters from Karel
and Josef Čapek are undated, but most likely were sent in 1911 and 1912 when the brothers
were living in Paris. One recent monograph on Czech Cubism mentions that both Hofman
and Josef Čapek studied for a brief period in 1912 at the Academie Colarossi in Paris, though
this information has not been corroborated in any other biographical sketch of Hofman (
Czech Cubism: Architecture, Furniture, and Decorative Arts, 1910-1925. New York: Princeton
Architectural Press, 1992). The collection holds a number of letters from one of Hofman's
clostest friends, the artist Vacláv Špála. Špála also traveled to Paris in 1911 and, like the
Čapeks, contributed to the development of Cubism in Prague upon his return. None of the
letters from Špála in the present collection date from 1911, but many were sent in 1913
when Špála was on a study fellowship in Italy. In one of his letters to Hofman, Špála provides
an elaborate description of his theories of painting.
Included in the archive are a number of postcards from Hofman's close friend and fellow
artist Pavel Janák. The postcards document Janák's travels to Florence, Rome, Munich,
Vienna, and other cities in Europe. A few of the cards date as early as 1904, the earliest
piece of correspondence in the collection, where Hofman and Janák were still at the
Technical University in Prague. Of note are the letters and cards sent by a few of Hofman's
friends and acquaintances, for example the dramaturge Josef Kodiček and the artist Bohumil
Kubišta, while they were stationed at the front in WWI. Kubišta, one of the better known
Czech painters of the Cubist movement, died soon after returning from the front in 1918.
Also present are postcards sent to Hofman in 1910 by the prominent art critic Václav Štech
while he was abroad in Italy and Berlin. Both Štech and his wife Marie Štechová were close
friends of Hofman. Štech and Hofman were among the founding members of the Skupina
organization.
The collection contains sixty-five letters to Hofman from the writer Jan Bartoš dated between
1916 and 1918. During this period Hofman appears to have corresponded frequently and
extensively with Bartoš who was then living in Turov. Bartoš played an integral role in
Hofman's introduction into the world of theater in 1919, and Hofman later designed sets for
productions of several of Bartoš' plays. The letters include copious notes by Bartoš on Fyodor
Dostroevsky's novels. In a few letters he lists quotations from the novels regarding a
particular character and then adds his own subsequent analysis of the character.
Approximately at the same time as the letters were written, Hofman was working on a series
of drawings inspired by these same characters of Dostoevsky's works.
Three postcards in the collection were written by Otakar Kubín to Josef Čapek. These are
notable because it is believed that most of Čapek's correspondence was lost after his arrest
by the Nazis in 1939; he would later die at Bergen-Belsen in 1945. All of the postcards from
Kubín were sent from Paris, probably sometime in the early 1910s. In one postcard Kubín
reports that he has attended a lecture by Filippo Tommaso Marínetti where he has met the
sculptor Umberto Boccioni.
Two letters from the poet Stanislav Neumann discuss articles recently published by Hofman.
The letters were written around the time when Hofman was designing book covers for
Neumann's collections of poetry (see Series V, Box 13*). Also of note in Series II are two
orginal music scores (piano fortes) written by Miroslav Ponc. The scores are written on small
cards, signed by Ponc and dated 1961 and 1962.
Miscellaneous business correspondence in the collection provides accounts of the sale of
works, honoraria for articles, and membership in Skupina vytvarných umělců. Several letters
from Lee Simonson document Hofman's participation in an international exhibition at the
Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1934. In his postcards from Die Aktion, Franz Pfempert
asks Hofman to send reproductions of his works for the journal.

Series III. Printed matter and curricula vitae materials, 1936, 1964-1965, 1972, undated
Physical Description: 0.42 linear feet(1 box)
Scope and Content Note
The printed matter contains extensive biographical information on Hofman. A typescript of a
lecture by Adolf Benš, given in Hofman's hometown Jičín two years after Hofman's death,
provides details of Hofman's family background and career. The curricula vitae, written by
Hofman and others, together with the many small exhibition catalogs provide a
comprehensive account of Hofman's artistic activities.
The collection holds extensive material dating from Hofman's participation in the 4th Volta
Conference, an international theater conference held in Rome in 1936. The conference was
sponsored by the Reale Academia D'Italia and the Reunion Volta and was a significant event
in the world of theater at the time. The conference was led by the Reunion's President, Luigi
Pirandello, and was attended by many leading playwrights, set designers and dramaturges
from all over the world. The collection includes a signed photograph of Pirandello and
numerous other pieces of memorabilia from the event. Critical reviews of Hofman's work in
theater, taken from numerous journals, cover various stages of his career. There are also
reviews of exhibitions of Hofman's work, held both in Czechoslovakia and in Italy, and
articles commemorating Hofman's 50th, 60th, 70th, and 80th birthdays.

Series IV. Photographs 1907-1954
Physical Description: 1.46 linear feet(7 boxes)
Scope and Content Note
The photographs document much of Hofman's career in the theater. There is also an entire
volume of costume designs which Hofman created from the film "Anna proletářka" in 1951.
The photographs of actual sets and live performances have been arranged seperately in
section 4 of box 7 and are also arranged chronologically and labeled, where possible. A small
group of large photographs of set designs and architectural projects are housed seperately
in box 8.
A small collection of photographs of works in the decorative arts are arranged according to
the type of project. The collection contains photographs of both sketches and realized
projects. These works are representative of Hofman's early career as part of the
Cubo-Expressionist movement in Prague. A number of the works in Series V. are also
representative of Hofman's Cubo-Expressionism. The oversized and double-oversized works
in Series V. comprise original designs in the decorative arts and architecture. Unless noted,
the works are drawings in pencil or ink. The works are also arranged according to type of
project. Box 13* contains several designs in the decorative arts for ceramic, wood, and metal
objects. Box 14* houses works stemming from Hofman's early career in architecture. Most of
the designs, primarily for churches and public projects, date from the early 1910s. Several
were created as entries for design competitions, but most of his architectural plans were
never realized. Of the architectural drawings in the collection only one is believed to have
been constructed (box 14*, folder 4). Some architectural drawings are housed in the Flatfile
Folders together with exhibition posters and diplomas.
The biographical photographs of Hofman in Series IV date from various periods in his life and
are generally arranged chronologically (several are undated). There are a few early
photographs circa 1910 which depict Hofman among his avant-garde friends. Several
photographs document Hofman's wife Zdenka, their two daughters, and two grandchildren.
There are a number of photographs of Hofman taken in the last years of his life and shortly
before his death in 1964.
Arrangement note
Arrangement is topical and chronological.
