Inanimate Links
Slámová, Anna ; Janoščík,, Václav (referee) ; Zálešák, Jan (advisor)
"... The above-mentioned issues for me personally created the idea of a world in which the human race ceases to exist in the form of civilization known to us, and it is transformed back to its original collective consciousness, something that is "above" -above real physical presence, beyond basic animal processes , well above the world he created for himself, and through that killed himself. Through advanced technology and ultramodern materials, as well as minerals and vitamins, which arose from the original ancient building units, transforming the world into a new form of being. Remains of human existence in the form of countless objects and materials, which finally adapted to other forms of life (not already poisoned and weakened, but instead upgraded units) have gradually become the basic building block posthuman planetary culture. Archaeological site with an area of 510.1 million square kilometers slowly melt away in their embedded meanings and emotions seeped into polyvinyl chloride, which eventually engulfed simple cell clusters..."

Post - conceptual Approaches in the Contemporary Czech Painting
Dub, Petr ; David,, Jiří (referee) ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
The dissertation thesis entitled Selected Post-conceptual Approaches in the Contemporary Czech Painting reflects the author’s expressions of the youngest artists’ generation working with the conceptual forms in the painting medium after 1996. The aim of the dissertation is to outline the conflict and overlapping of the conceptualism and painting. Apart from the development of conceptual art, the reference framework of the submitted thesis also comprises the post-modern turn in visual arts associated with a global change in its social status during the second half of the 20th and at the beginning of 21st century. The development of the domestic artistic scene and particular approaches are presented on the basis of a representative selection of the most distinctive tendencies and significant authors, being compared with the work of foreign artists. The text interprets the key theoretical treatises, reviewed responses and artists’ statements covering the domain of “contemporary painting to conceptual art”.

Millenial#SURVIVAL#BlackMagic
Pintérová, Renáta ; Mazanec, Martin (referee) ; Zálešák, Jan (advisor)
The aim of my work is to investigate the conditions of contemporary art and self-colonising tendencies in the production, perception and circulation of art between the online and offline space as well as the theoretical, contextual and political background of this process. The self-promotional character of mediating my own artwork over the internet is given by the widely used technology options, the preset architecture of web content for distribution of visual content, as well as the dominant aesthetic canon of documentary artwork and exhibitions dictated by influential visual blogs from the Contemporary Art Daily to the Ofluxo , Tzvetnik or others. I recognize the artistic practice in this context as an aesthetic loop and the accelerative impotence of a digital image given by the political conditions of information technology. The practical output of the work will consist of two textile objects.Design of objects and the DIY part of it will be created by me, but the objects stiching will be realized by Slovak designer / model Michal Šumichrast, who creates his own branding under the name SUMICRAFT. I think that the aesthetics and the process of producing his work and life itself corresponds to the social policy of the new global class of cultural producers. His artistic practice is contextually similar to my practice and to the social / political economic issues of the current precariat class that I examine in my theoretical and practical work. As a final result of the research the objects will be documented in "high resolution" and sent back to the Internet. Either in the form of an Instagram post, or as a self-colonising process within some of the "most up-to-date" online platforms for contemporary art.

Ambivalence of Identity: Cultural Traditions As a Theme in Contemporary Czech and Slovak Art
Maixner, Miroslav ; Klodová, Lenka (referee) ; Janečková,, Zuzana (referee) ; Zálešák, Jan (advisor)
The dissertation focuses on the phenomenon of a new presence of references to traditional folk culture in contemporary Czech and Slovak art. Emphasis is placed on the period from the year 2000 to the present. The core of the work consists of chapters devoted to artists who in this period significantly thematized various aspects of traditional folk culture, either as a partial element of specific projects or in the form of continuous interest in the field. The essence of this part is to show the breadth and heterogeneity of the examined manifestations across the media spectrum. The main purpose of the work is to analyze and place the researched phenomena in a relevant context within the theory and history of art. The reason is their different nature from thematically similar manifestations in the 19th and 20th centuries. In addition, when compared with current trends abroad, a number of connections are shown, such as links to environmental issues, criticism of the state of society and, above all, to new issues related to personal and collective identification. Therefore, I base the analysis of these phenomena on a hybrid interdisciplinary basis using theoretical approaches to identity in the social sciences and humanities. I do so in the introductory theoretical chapters, but the main focus is on the final analytical synthesis. To a large extent, it also builds on data obtained from interviews with artists, the transcripts of which the reader will find in the appendix. Finally, the documentation of curatorial projects and exhibitions realized as a practical part of the dissertation project is attached.

The Personal Motif
Vlčková, Tamara ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
In my bachelor work I focus on intimate communication. I am interested in the moment of detection and in a simple question: What makes sense? I'm interested in everyday situations and in a human body, which I display in different social situations and personal dialogue - with the audience, work, and man. The main motives of my drawings are personal stories that remind familiar stories, and transmit such information, which audience accepts and transforms in its own way. Important is a constellation of people and things, and also attitude, a gesture that creates the story. I mix reality, dreams, ideas, and questions - choosing aspects I tend to think about, that touch my feelings or that I fear. Equally important is the installation, where a personal space for watching drawings will be kept.

EX/POSITION
Brinzová, Marianna ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Artamonov, Vasil (advisor)
The diploma work titled Ex/position is a project, exhibition, intervention of space, which determined itself as the topic and object of its research (analysis and interest). The Ex/position is an exhibition about an exhibition, a project about a project and a reflection about a context. The main output of the thesis is a curatorial project created in the concept of collaborative practice. The result of it is a collective work in the form of an exhibition. The thesis as a temporary gallery installation is created on the basis of the curatorial and as well authorial concept in collaboration with other authors. They were ideologically, formally, creationally involved in the collective work. The Ex/position reflects these topics: collaboration, the essence of the particular media and their contemporary intermediality, the relation between author and author, author and curator (and their blending) and the creation process of an exhibition.
