The primary objective of this "Uprka In America" (UIA) is to honor and celebrate the exceptional artistic contributions made by Joze Uprka, a renowned Czech artist, and his contemporaries and to advance late 19th and early 20th century art. Through this platform, we aim to showcase the remarkable works of Joza Uprka and other gifted Czech artists who were active during his era. By doing so, we hope to not only pay homage to their creative brilliance but also to preserve and share their invaluable artistic heritage with a wider audience. This website serves as a digital gallery and educational resource, offering a comprehensive glimpse into the captivating world of Czech art from that period, allowing art enthusiasts and history buffs alike to delve deeper into the artistic treasures that were emerging during this fascinating era.
"I worked my whole my life not for fame and recognition not for money and other advantages not to out-do others but only for the simple purpose of demonstrating that I am a full member of the community of people I sought to capture as truly as possible through my art.”
— Joža Uprka
