Martin Anton Lublinský (1636-1690) as a designer of prints. Views into baroque graphics of the latter half of the 17th century
Zelenková, Petra ; Horyna, Martin (advisor) ; Preiss, Pavel (referee) ; Royt, Jan (referee)
This work deals with one of the most important central European print designers of the latter half of the 17th century, the painter and draftsman Martin Anton Lublinský (1636- 1690). A native Silesian, who settled in Olomouc, where in 1664 he entered a cloister of the Augustinian canons, and then devoted the rest of his life to the creation of art. Lublinský has been at the forefront of Bohemian art history research in the last decade. This was due to several reasons. One of them is Lublinsky's scattered and in some ways founding role in the baroque painting and drawing of 17th century Moravia. Another is an increasing number of Lublinsky's known art realizations. Especially engaging is the profusion of iconography in Lublinsky's works.

Each catalogue note offers a detailed iconographic analysis; also provided are any known commission details and specifics relative to the historical and art historian context.

Tribute to Toyen. Artist´s book
SKOPCOVÁ, Petra
This thesis consists of two parts, written and practical. The subject of the written part is life and work of the surrealist artist Toyen. Despite the fact that Toyen is primarily known as a painter, I look at Toyen primarily as a first class illustrator and graphic designer in my thesis. The practical part is then the making of author's books inspired by graphic creation of Toyen. The main sources of inspiration for me were mainly the drawing cycles from the war period, such as The shooting range, and her artistically adapted erotic themes that she pursued throughout the whole course of her work. The result is the making of author's book containing fifteen sheets including book jacket and flyleaf. The aim of my work was not only a summary and processing of the creation of this artist, but especially to give a tribute to Toyen in this way.
