Machines of Václav Jíra
FAJKUSOVÁ, Hedvika
The topic of my bachelor's thesis is mechanical devices of the Czech artist Václav Jíra. The artist creates his mechanical work from the 60's of the last century to the present. Some of them act as kinetic sculptures, which from time to time conquer to a hydraulic press; others present themselves as the plans on the two-dimensional can-vases. His work follows up of the machine tendencies that appeared in the art in the second half of the 19th century, at the beginning of the 20th century the wave of avant-garde's styles grow and are on the top in the half of this millennium. The goal of my bachelor's work is to introduce the readers with the life and work of partly forgotten artist and situate him into the wilder context with previous artists and his contemporaries.
