Here You Are, Watch it!
Škrovinová, Eva ; Záhoranský, Dušan (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
I deal with the production process of the painting base. I created a custom folding system already stretched canvas, which can reduce its size. On the other hand, this folding formed procesual abstract paintings on the surface of the canvas. Finally I created installation (5 white canvases, of which only one can be folded, but this one is indistinguishable from the others), which I complete with the documented research in previous paintings.

Spectres and Illusions
Arendárik, Ján ; Stratil, Václav (referee) ; Artamonov, Vasil (advisor)
The subject of my practical diploma thesis is a painting reaction to the photographs from years 1915 to 1930. I see them as a " photographs of dead(lost) world. The photographs of people whose dont live in present but the photographs are evidence of their existence in the past.

The practical part of the thesis is an intimate and inner parent album, which is based on illustration of spoken word. It replaces the ordinary photo album, which is for a long time a social necessity of every young mother. During interviews with close friends of the author were created drawings that captures photographically „uncapturable“. They expressively displays completely new experience, which the mother has to go through for the very first time - mood swings, strange tastes, childbirth, but also the moment of conception. Work replaces the mentioned photo album and was formed as a family heirloom. Therefore, considerable attention has been paid to the external processing of the album.

Trends in Contemporary Art
Janovská, Anna ; Ptáček, Jiří (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
Diploma work consists of 4 oil paintings on canvas and 10 paintings on paper. Abstract character of these paintings defines their dreamy atmosphere, which was created in Intermedia department and captures autor’s approach towards painting. This diploma work has ambitions to belong to contemporary art scene, especially in the context of contemporary painting. Author reflects that art scene and is aware of its tendences and trends. There might be few questions; what are these trends? what is their meaning and how can they be reflected by curators and critics? Will these trends persist and will they become classified? Simultaneously author perceives the autonomy of Intermedia department and its liberty. Collection entitled „ARE“ was created with awareness of the fact, that everyone can see their beings in their own eyes. Author created them by her own eyes and by that she claims they „are“.

www.arthistory
Kopecká, Martina ; Šedivá, Barbora (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
The apparent switch of the stated topic and name of the thesis from Art History to the actual name of the video Inside and Outside the Window became specifically meaningfull to me in that it reflects my own search for understanding, meaning and finding my own place in life and society. The term art history becomes one of many symbols of understanding and learning about a certain topic and it's value system. History of Art and it's evolution is first presented as a unified story, to be learned and accepted on face value as the only truth. But at a certain point it begins to unravel and fall apart and one is forced to doubt exactly those learned and accepted values. What was once accepted as observed or directly experienced is suddenly questioned not only through historical revaluation, but also personal introspection, rejection of absorbed values and a search for new and inherent personal values. But I myself am becoming a part of history and I am no longer the observer, but become the observed and I begin to realise that the newly discovered values are just a revised version of the old and learned ones.

The Journey/A Performance
Slámová, Veronika ; Ruller, Tomáš (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
Between 1. 8. 2011 and 14. 8. 2011, from the center of Prague to the South, following the Moldau river, the Journey/Performance took place. The journey without specified destination. The participants were two artists Veronika Slámová, who initiated the trip, and Darina Alster. They took with them hand made pushcart, designed by Jan Jaroslav Sterec, in which they had hand made costumes, basic food and camping necessities. The aim of the Journey/Performance was to break free from everyday life and stereotypes, to find new experience, to travel without plans, mobiles, money, time and other modern utilities. Veronika Slámová and Darina Alster tried to find out if people are willing to help unknown artist/pilgrims. During the Journey/Performance the spontaneous performances took place based on the location, participants and situation. People were enthusiastic and serious about their parts in these performances. If artists needed help with or without asking people offered it to them, sometimes they had to refuse these offers. The journey was documented by using the photographs, video and text. Part of the journey was broadcasted live in internet radio Applaus.

Chaos
Vogelová, Tereza ; Fajnor, Richard (referee) ; Stratil, Václav (advisor)
The existing world is becoming more disrupted and is falling apart. For its resurrection and restoration, a new way of thinking is necessary. This new type of thinking is needed to be able to open up its mind and to think about the process of thinking itself; it must understand what is happening in other systems, where processes seem to be taking place by themselves without any other visible interference. First Chaos is the title for an intermedia installation which contains 90 black and white photographs, both digital and analogue, all of which were taken between the years 2008 and 2012. Together, the photographs create one coherent piece – a kind of sculpture. They can evoke a "still film" with a non-linear, cyclical storyline, whilst the images can simultaneously function individually, without any connection to other photographs.
