It briefly describes the substance and the history of the graffiti phenomenon with the focus on current situation and local scene. Then, it points out less frequent questions and problems that are based on the substance of graffiti itself. The text tries to give important information and impulses to the teachers of art lessons, who often have misinterpreted and partly idealized idea of graffiti.

Museum Marketing: Communication Activities of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London in the Academic Year 2011/2012
Freitagová, Martina ; Dolanský, Pavel (advisor) ; Shavit, Anna (referee)
After an extensive museum boom in the 1980s and 1990s marked by the construction of numerous new museums, there is now a growing debate about selling museum items and even a complete closure of some institutions. Also the function attributed to art in the museum context has changed the purpose of these institutions in society. Museums turned into socializing platforms and their collections became subjects of universal conversations. Their role has been fully reoriented towards serving the public. The chronic lack of finances together with the changing nature and purpose of museums have raised the need to be more economical and underscored the importance of a professional marketing communication based above all on an understanding of the public. My paper analyses the marketing activities of Victoria and Albert Museum in London, which has been one of the first to consider the public as a key factor in shaping the museum's role. The analysis of communication activities derives from the examination of the place and museum building, the finances and the study of the target audience. I have focused on the development and usage of the museum's brand, print and outdoor advertising as well as below-the-line activities with a special attention to the online communication. The aim of my bachelor thesis...

The prevalence of chosen polymorphisms of luteinizing hormone receptor gene in Czech population and patients with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome
Chrudimská, Jana ; Macek, Milan (advisor) ; Schierová, Michaela (referee)
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic potentially life-threatening complication of assisted reproduction techniques (ART). It is caused by an increased sensitivity of ovaries to gonadotropins administered during the controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). Thus, the degree of ovarian response can be gently tuned by genetic polymorphisms of gonadotropins and their receptors. The aim of this study is to ascertain the prevalence of polymorphisms Asn291Ser (rs1470652), Ser312Asn (rs2293275) and insLQ (insertion of leucine and glutamine, rs58356637) in the luteinizing hormone chorionic gonadotropin receptor (LHCGR) gene in 102 Czech fertile men, 149 fertile women and 58 patients with serious grade of OHSS. Detection of the Asn291Ser and Ser312Asn polymorphisms was performed using TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays. The insLQ variation was detected by the capillary electrophoresis with fluorescence-labeled primers. This study ascertained the prevalence of studied variants in Czech fertile population. Obtained results are in concordance with the majority of data from other European populations. There is no difference in prevalence between control-men and control-women. No relation to the development of OHSS was disclosed. The number of analyzed samples is too small for haplotype analysis. These...
