Czech avant-garde in its search of peace and ideas of new society reconstructed on the ruins of WWI came hand in hand with the international flow with the concept of "civilized woman". This aspect led to the rise of women in avant-gardistic artificial and also theoretical, educational and exhibition activities. Although in visual arts only few of them (esp. nonconform and still-up-to-date fascinating Toyen did succeed), in the performative arts and stage activities many of them became to be known as the innovators in acting, gender-stylized, sportswoman style leading to new revolution in society, also those who were in anti-war and pacifistic campaigns involved in the time before and after WWII. Some of the actresses also started with the literature and during the 1930s and especially after WWII they became to be some of those who kept the narrative alive.
