Marionettes and an original theatre play
KOLÁŘOVÁ, Ivana
This practical-theoretical thesis consists of two wire-controlled marionettes. The puppets are made of fired clay and other materials. The marionettes come with an original theatre play, which is also a part of the thesis. The form of the marionettes is inspired by the puppets of Czech folk puppeteers and marionettes from Munich. The accompanying theoretical part focuses on the history of puppetry, types of puppets and their use in art schools. The work also informs about the lives of our foremost puppeteers.
