Between Realism and Abstraction: The Creation of Meaning in the Work of František Kupka, Paul Klee and Willem de Kooning
VANDERKOVÁ, Andrea
The main focus of this research is to clarify the relationship of František Kupka's abstract work to reality and his approach to creation and interpretation of visual meaning. In addition to Kupka's work itself, the research is also aimed to create sufficient theoretical background for following interpretation. This part of the research adresses visual communication, especially the significance of the image in relation to (non-)similarity, and the processes of identification and articulation of meaning in abstract image. This theoretical background, inspired by visual studies, include findings from several disciplines, especially semiotics, psychology and neuroaesthetics. The synthesis of these findings is specifically applied to František Kupka's abstract painting, The Cathedral. The interpretation is based on visual studies, František Kupka's own opinions, and the graduate´s own observation and reception, with the focus on the conditions of reception.

Subsequently, it briefly mentions prominent psychoanalytics´ fundamental views of this problem. The second theoretical area forms the psychology of art where essential questions of creative art-artist relation (perhaps even spectator) are being presented once more. In addition, not even both theoretical and philosophical approach to creative art should be left out. Pivotal part of thesis is devoted to Tomáš H.´s personality involves artist´s biography, analysis and interpretation of three artifacts on which findings from psychoanalysis and artetherapy are being applied. The thesis´ aim is to confront both latent and manifest content of probed artifacts, along with the interconnection of these findings with artist-mother relation in artist´s early childhood.

The thesis´ contribution is seen in artetherapy´s significance affirmation, in its close connection with psychoanalysis and application of artetherapy methods in practice which yields relevant results.

The psychologist and art: Josef Viewegh´s contribution to the Czech and Slovak psychology
Čermák, Ivo
Work of Josef Viewegh and its contribution to the Czech and Slovak psychology is analysed. J. Viewegh, one of the few Czech psychologists, was inspired by German Geisteswisenschafte psychology. He focused on the art as a source of knowledge about its author. He believed that psychology must be considered as an interdisciplinary branch of knowledge. His researches on diaries and creativity of writers, who commited suicide, support his opinion. He argued that authentic subjective experience is most valid means of understanding the individual. Viewegh´s psyhological analyses of aphorism and his theory of imagination and creativity are also mentioned.
