Description The contribution searches for the trails of Bergsonism in concepts of Czech interwar artists and theorists, i. g. K. Teige, J. Frejka, J. Voskovec, J. Werich, and Václav Černý. Bergson´s books influenced the Czech reception of the Avant-guard vital movements, especially Futurism and Dadaism. Bergson´s concepts of laugher, duration and creativity can explain specific tendencies of Czech Theatre Art towards improvisation, spontaneity, and anti-illusionist principles, or against the mechanization of the life.
