Significancy of photography in the context of history of art and in the context of visual studies
Stecker, David ; Dvořák, Tomáš (advisor) ; Silverio, Robert (referee)
Do we currently find ourselves at the divide of qualitative change in creative processes? Are we witnessing the end of the grand era of European culture model, the meaning of which has been immense and, in the course of two thousand and five hundred years, capable of reflecting feelings and fates of European nations with unprecendented plasticity? Are we to proclaim final exhaustion of this era and beginning of new aesthetics of postmodernism? Or shall we consider it a mere episode, an enclave with amusing, creative parameters full of freshness and playfulness which, while not guarding the boundaries of authorship, will after some time prepare a return to the once abandoned traditional model, enriched by these newly discovered traces and expanded to follow further adventures of creative search? I love controversial questions, I love dreaming about uncertain destinies, open endings, surprising solutions. Let's step inside this story, then.

Statesmans portrait developement
Bouška, Ondřej ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Silverio, Robert (referee)
The way of portraying statesmen, that we got intimately acquainted with throughout the 20th century, must be seen in connection with the genre artists have been concerned with since the beginnings of the figurative art. The main topic of this study is the chronological development within which the preceding periods have impact on the following periods. The thesis also reveals significant parallels in the area of formal part of statesmen's and rulers' imaging and the way deities, gods and the God are imaged, i.e. the highest divine authorities, supposing the similarities between these genres are not random. Requisites for portraying leaders of empires and states resulted in defining almost a unified style of such portrayals, which was broken and significantly changed only by the emergence of photography. The new aesthetics and typology of photography imaging brings about new ways of portraying statesmen at the beginning of the 20th century, which are nevertheless influenced by tradition and which thus take the tradition into account.
