Art and Motherhood
Olivová, Kateřina ; Koubová,, Alice (referee) ; Kraĺovič,, Ján (referee) ; Klodová, Lenka (advisor)
The dissertation Art and Motherhood deals with the influence of motherhood on the experienced reality of women active in artistic practice - artists, theorists, curators and activists. Using feminist and artistic research methods, I collect and analyse the specific experiences of individual mothers. Capturing the breadth of possible views, perspectives and experiences that motherhood brings is essential to my research. I am not concerned in isolation instances of specific artistic realisations, but rather with the processes, environments and contexts of making, and the creative and life strategies employed in reconciling the personal and professional roles of individual women artists. The content of a series of thirty-five conducted interviews comprises the research material for the work, but is also the source for the practical component of the dissertation - the book Milk and Honey co-published by the wo-men and AVU publishing houses. The practice of two related community-based mothers' groups - Breastfeeding Guerillas and Mothers Artlovers is also examined. While Breastfeeding Guerrilla is a support group for mothers promoting and normalizing breastfeeding, Mothers Artlovers is a support group for parents in the arts. All of these research units set a community-based perspective on all research affecting the universal, multi-layered and inherently collective topic of motherhood.

NEWkus - Sara and Bara
Wollasch, Sara ; Olivová, Kateřina (referee) ; Klodová, Lenka (advisor)
The bachelor's thesis presents a series of events of the artistic duo NEWkus. Artistic duo NEWkus deals with transformation of relationships and solid definition of the concept of a NEWkus’s body. It copes with the isolation which was caused by the coronavirus pandemic and with the apathy caused by the monotonous lifestyle in an enclosed space with still the same person and the impossibility of meeting within the duo NEWkus. Thanks to our series of events in the home environment, the group is aware of its own existence on a much wider scale, it finds that it is not only two-member, that its structure is more extensive. The series of realized events is built on the border of social and artistic experiment and intimate realism. The whole experience is screened in a single space, as part of a festival called Dny NEWkusu (The NEWkus Days). The space consists of an object inspired by a screen,which inner surface is adapted to the image and needs of both authors..The spectator is thus allowed to meet the story that will be presented from many points of views during the festival and thus provide an opportunity to mingle with the body of NEWkus in real time and space.

Body Design
Bobáková, Natália ; Olivová, Kateřina (referee) ; Klodová, Lenka (advisor)
The long-term topic of my artistic interest is an attempt to link sport with art by examining the human body and movement. In this bachelor thesis, I build on already existing work and I further develop this idea. I deal with a sport as a cleansing ritual and I focus on a sweat as a phenomenon of physical activity. I find grace in this body fluid and I use it on a commercial level. Using the sweat, I create a unique T-shirt design and I present it through a website created just for this event.

The Pet
Gramerová, Zuzana ; Olivová, Kateřina (referee) ; Klodová, Lenka (advisor)
Master´s thesis looks into parallels between people and domesticate animals. Thesis shows situations where is a person in dog´s position. It points out to a typical pet´s position with human in household. However, behaviour like this is not dignified as a human life style.
