Murphy has prepared a new US tour for the act, respective of their new agreement. Replacing their guitarist with original member; Jiri Simecek. All though Simecek supposedly did not hold compositional abilities on par with Heger, the issue seemingly had little to no effect on Toyen's continuation. Toyen prepared a new album "Blue Painter" (or "Malíř Smutnej" in Czech), for 'BMG CZ'. Which was produced in collaboration with Jan P. Muchow. Hiatus/Retirement Křivka announced his retiral after Toyen's second US tour ("Blue Painter"s promotional tour), with his replacement, František Sahula. Toyen released their last album with new guitarist, Petr Vana; "La Orana", in 1997 - under an independent CZ label. It featured new compositions in English, in attempt to cater toward a Western audience (like their earlier live-performances). The last two tracks of the album paying homage to original member Heger, featuring his guitar/keyboard. When Šimeček was made aware of "La Orana" being the project's last album, he attempted to conclude it with a spoken-word track about Toyen's history. This however did not come to fruition. The band's last performances were held in their hometown, each with declining attendance. Ondříček produced a movie about Toyen, which aired on Czech TV in 1997.
