Tourist Postcard in contemporary art
 Držková, Kateřina ; Musilová, Helena (advisor) ; Silverio, Robert (referee)
This dissertation concerns itself with tourist postcards and their use in contemporary art projects. These art projects are classified into categories and introduced within individual chapters, each of which considers picture postcards from a different perspective. Postcards are analyzed as a product that accompanied tourism from its beginning and that influenced the perception of visited venues. Postcards are also analyzed as a means of personal and mass communication. In addition to viewing postcards as a medium of communication, their physical and aesthetic characteristics are taken into account. These characteristics influence the perception of the photographed images. Emotions that are evoked can refer either to the aesthetic features of the postcard or to its referential function. Circumstances under which a postcard can be classified as ?kitsch? are considered. Postcards collections are likened to photographic archives. A separate chapter is devoted to the use of postcards in artistic projects during the past century.

Interactive projects using photography
 Držková, Kateřina ; Vojtěchovský, Miloš (advisor) ; Musilová, Helena (referee)
This thesis investigates several interactive art projects dealing with photography, presented on Internet or CD-ROM. My objective was to review some questions relating to the interactivity and photographic archives. In the first part I explore the structure and functioning of projects and describe two degrees of interactivity - selective and productive, based on well known models proposed by Margaret Morse, Söke Dinkla or Marie-Laure Ryan. Second part explores photographic databases in relation to the photographic archives. Special attention is dedicated to question of digital databases especially in comparison to analog archives. I also discuss some aspects of open archives and internet image databases, related to photographic databases of several interactive projects
