Abstract: [eng] [cze]
! The thesis is exploring art and architecture in Denmark and Czechoslovakia in the period 1947-1957. The main interest was to see how the interwar avant-garde movements such as Functionalism and Surrealism, as well as the legacy of Bauhaus, developed after the WWII. Yet, Functionalism and Surrealism can also be seen not only as mere artistic styles but as two different attitudes towards life, Rational and Romantic respectively. The latter, which is a passionate protest against the status quo, can especially in its revolutionary or utopian dimension serve as a form of engagement free of the simplifying Cold War binaries. ! Diplomová práca je venovaná umeniu a architektúre v Dánsku a Československu v rokoch 1947-1957. Hlavným záujmom bolo sledovať, ako sa medzivojnové hnutia ako funkcionalismus a surrealismus, ako tiež odkaz Bauhausu, vyvinuli po Druhej svetovej vojne. Avšak funkcionalismus a surrealismus je možno vnímať ako viac než len umelecké smery, jedná sa i o dva odlišné prístupy k životu, teda racionálny a romantický. Ten druhý, teda vášnivý prostest proti statu quo, može zvlášť vo svojej revolučnej či utopickej dimenzii slúžiť ako forma angažovanosti nezávislá od zjednodušujúcich polarít Studenej vojny.
