The significance of image in the field of visual culture
Stuparičová, Kateřina ; Pálka, Peter (advisor) ; Minařík, Karel (referee)
Hlavní důraz mé práce je kladen na médium obrazu, a to zejména v souvislosti s oborem vizuální kultury. Právě ta ho dokáže nahlédnout z několika rozličných úhlů pohledů. Jak je v práci dále uvedeno, obraz může být komunikován, může být brán v potaz například z oboru sémiotiky či mu může být kladen různý význam, a to zejména dle druhu interpretace, který zvolíme. Na konci práce je uvedena praktická část, která na popsané teorii, uvedené v této práci, popisuje reálné výsledky. Mým hlavním cílem v této práci bylo zjistit, zdali (a do jaké míry, abychom dostali pokud možno zprávu bez ztrát) je možné pomocí obrazu komunikovat.
