Höferová, Jana ; Ottová, Michaela (advisor) ; Kubík, Viktor (referee)
Mosaic has peculiar status in art across thousands of years. Since antiquility when mosaic governed entire Mediterranean, it stood to be an active art expression till nowadays, even despite it's demandigness and costingness - not only abroad but also at our territory. So it went through the period of decrement and "degradation" of it's own technique due to increasing favour of painting in the Renaissance and lived to see it's follow-up boom in 19th century. The thesis marks geografical expansion inlay art from it's roots till the modern age and it's influence on the technique developement. Historical part is more extensive because it has not been documented more detailed so far, which it definately is worthy to be. Thanks to Viktor Foester, the inlay art was reset at the beggining of the 20th century when he and two Italian workers founded a mosaic fitting-room. The fitting-room followed a trend of establishing inlay fitting-room in other states of Europe apart from Italy on the beggining of 18th century.

Historical roots of the conemporary minimalistic cinema
Böhm, Michal ; HOLÝ, Zdeněk (advisor) ; BOUDA, Marek (referee)
Mimalism represents a film style which still partially predominates on the contemporary art festivals although it reached its peak during in the beginning of the 21. century. Minimalism is a style which supresses the pallete of formalistic tools, expressive elements and typical narative structures and drama. It also works extensively with time and the depiction of everyday. Minimalistic cinema experience thus stimulates the audience to make their own interpretations of the story and the form altogether. The aim of this work is to analyze those historical cinema tendencies that bear most resemblance to the modern style of minimalism. I consider these films (and styles) to be the most predetermenative to the style of minimalism: Italian neorealism, spiritual work of Ozu and Bresson, experimental structural movies, the cinematic masterpiece Jean Dielman, 23 Commerce Quay, 1080 Brussels from Chantal Akerman and Antonionis movies with their narative structure.
