Description The paper focuses on Josef Čapek’s journalism from the 1930s, especially his columns and essays devoted to modern visual art. The study analyzes Čapek’s reflections on artistic creation, which include both the defense of modern movements and the critique of the conservative social view of modern art. Special attention is paid to his concept of connecting art with everyday life, to questions of artistic freedom, and to his reflections on the social role of visual culture. His journalistic texts serve here as a key source for examining Čapek’s aesthetic thought as well as his influence on contemporary artistic discourses.
