In 2008 the AMAM received an important donation of works by Czech artist Franti!ek Kupka, from alumnus Frederic L. Pryor (Oberlin '55). Kupka (1871-1957) is one of the most important Czech painters of the early 20th century. As a young artist in Prague and Vienna, he was influenced by the religious art of the German Romantic painters known as the Nazarenes. Later, his interest in Symbolism led him to experiment with color theory an abstraction in painting, a style he maintained for the rest of his career.
