Cultural Landscape as a statement of it's inhabitants
KAMENSKÁ, Julie

This is followed by a brief introduction to the issue of landscape art in terms of its changes over time with its subsequent application in conceptu-al art focused on creation via the medium of photography. The differences in approach of conceptualists are demonstrated in the works of certain graduates of the Düsseldorf School of Photography and the Czech artist Miloš Šejn. What is characteristic of the selected authors is their unusual experimentation with the medium of photography in conjunction with multimedia conceptual creation. Findings from the works of the selected artists with the thesis aut-hor's alterations of content and form areutilised in the individual outputs of the practical section
Vague Terrain - Far Side of the City
Třísková, Nora ; Géla, František (advisor) ; Silverio, Robert (referee)
This practical bachelor thesis examines the phenomenon of vague terrain through the medium of documentary photography. The work is focused mainly on capturing the variability of those places and exploring their meaning for the city and its citizens. The photobook Vague Prague is part of the bachelor thesis. The first part of the thesis is concerned with clarifying the terms such as vague terrain, non-place, brownfield and other terms which are necessary for understanding this topic. Furthermore, the thesis connects those concepts with the medium of photography and describes the change of approach in documenting peripheries and the transformation of visual narrative, which happened in this field in the second half of 20th century. The second part is a sixty-page long photobook, which uses the medium of documentary photography to capture the appearance of vague spaces in Prague. Photographs in this cycle combine classic documentary techniques with a more conceptual approach to the visual work. The cycle shows one of possible ways to see and understand vague spaces and potentially even fully appreciate their significance for the city.
