Jakalová, Zuzana ; Štefková, Zuzana (referee) ; Pospiszyl, Tomáš (referee) ; Zálešák, Jan (advisor)
Dissertation entitled Multilogues on the Now. Dis/ability and gender in contemporary feminist curating offers a reflection and a theoretical framework of the curatorial methods developed and applied during a long-term exhibition project Multilogues on the Now (2017 - 2022) that took place in Display - association for research and collective practice in Prague. Through a series of exhibitions, discussions, screenings, commissioned artworks, publications, shared meals and workshops, the project’s aim was to comprehensively formulate questions related to bodily autonomy, emancipatory needs for self-determination, social frameworks and nuances of impairment and "disability" and ableist exclusion and discrimination their basis, or the material nature of the non-normative lived experience. The dissertation anchors the project in the context of current debates surrounding curatorial research, intersectional feminist curating informed by critical disability studies. It also emphasizes the importance of auto-theory and embodied perspectives on life with illness and disability in contemporary curatroial practice.

Beyond the limit of interest - the genesis of creativity
Chmelíková, Alžběta ; Jakalová, Zuzana (referee) ; Vaněk, Vojtěch (advisor)
Artistic work is to a large extent viewed holistically - the receiver perceives the whole of the work, seeks its meaning, tries to interpret it. The final text is torn off by a thick black line from its genesis. However, just observing the development of the idea, concept, processing, or method itself is most often a more complex experience than the finished work. The course of my studies, permeated by three separate studios and by itself representing the macroclimate of an individual thinking about artistic attitude and meaning, motivated me to turn attention from the work to the course of creation. The work can be understood as a metacritical view of the creative processes, enveloping the finalized work itself, among which a structure of similarity and otherness emerges; this I will try to capture as a text in the form of a gamebook.

Times X
Němec, Jakub ; Jakalová, Zuzana (referee) ; Mikyta, Svätopluk (advisor)
Bachelor thesis time X is a creative science fiction story about a perfect society undefined future, which is built on the necessary global genocide in favor of the existence of life on the planet. The analytical work I examine the origin and development of the new company, global ecological changes, code of ethics and the position of art in this system. I apply the theoretical platform for the visual identity of a fictitious company.

The master's thesis deals with the shift from visual to multisensory perception. In this context, it works with the concept of comfort, which it applies to both physical and mental aspects of the experience of visitors to art institutions. Creating a sense of comfort is important not only at the end of the process - that is, evoking that feeling in visitors - but also in the creative process. The work uses the environment of wellness (spa) resorts and is based on the growing popularity of relaxation facilities. It uses various clichés that are associated with this environment. Galleries and spa resorts are a leisure activity. Both environments offer care, although each in a different way. In the wellness resorts, others take care of our body. In a museum or gallery, they care more about the mental side, but we still feel that we have to make some effort so that we can be cared for in this way. The diploma thesis is a real, created space, the basic layout and equipment of which are inspired by the sauna. All objects in the space, but also its other "layers" acting on the senses of visitors serve to make people feel comfortable even in an environment that is in a sense inhospitable. Sauna benches invite you to sit down, stored bathrobes offer the feeling of luxury and instantly available care that we know from wellness resorts. The space is filled with the scent released from the diffuser. The last component of the space is the "meditation" audio, which accompanies visitors both in the real space in which it is located and in the abstract space of the scent.
