Concept of gravestone in the sculptures of Jan Koblasa
Nešlehová, Mahulena
The study centers on the work of Jan Koblasa (1932) that was intended for sacral places. More closely, it is about his work on gravestones, which was part of a larger concept of spiritual related activity of his. According to the text, there are two discernible approaches in his work. First, there are works that are dedicated to the memory of Koblasa´s close friends, and those bear signs of clearly personal approach. Examples of such work are the graves of poet Ivan Divis, painter Jiri Valenta or composer Milan Kymlicka, all found in Bohemia. Second approach is more universal and timeless, marked by minimalist design. An example is the grave of doctor Artur Rathke, which is located in a church in Germany. Towards the end, the text deals with the chapel in Neumünsteru and its layout.

Epigraphica & Sepulcralia III. Proceedings from conferences devoted to the question of sepulcral monuments, organised by the Institute of Art History of the AS CR from 2008 to 2010
Roháček, Jiří
The publication includes a total of 33 papers presented at the 7th, 8th and 9th consultations. All the contributions are accompanied by a summary in German and extensive illustrations. Periodical international conferences on issues relating to sepulchral monuments have been held by the Institute of Art History, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, since the year 2000. Their main aim is to facilitate contact between interested representatives of all disciplines and fields of study that are related to the subject (art history, general history, auxiliary historical disciplines, archaeology, monument conservation, museology, restoration practice, petrography, etc.) in order to promote greater interdisciplinarity and coordination of previously unconnected research. The common denominator is a factual or methodical connection to Central European material and a primary factual or contextual focus on material sepulchral monuments in the restricted interpretation of the term.

Design and emplacement of a sculpture in the landscape
ŠINDELÁŘOVÁ, Barbara
This thesis is focused to the ideal concept, design, implementation and em-placement of a sculpture in the respective area, designed in a deeper context of the work itself to its surroundings, its history and specific local character. To solve the emplacement of the sculpture, a scenic park surrounding the Castle at Štěkeň (South-West Bohemia) has been chosen. The design respects fully not only scenic dominants, but also neighboring architecture and vistas directly in the respective locality. A full appeal of the art work is enabled by applying convenient material re-specting its milieu and the sculpture theme itself as well. Also the onlooker´s position toward the sculpture proportions and its comprehensibility and readability has been taken in consideration. The theme and concept of the sculpture is closely connected to the Christian Or-der ?Congregatio Jesu? settled directly in the facilities of the Štěkeň Castle and related first of all to Mary Ward, its founder and to her first community of ?English Virgins? as well. A component part of this thesis is formed by a secondary pedagogic project ? a workhop meeting for children, convened in autumn 2010 directly to the Štěkeň Castle premises. It dealt with the human being´s relation to the landscape. This thesis focused to the relation between an art work and the surrounding sce-nery is concerned also to spiritual creativity from the point of view of actual cultural-social neediness respecting also the application and readability of Christian symbolism in respect to actual cultural experience.
