The Essence of Performance
Martinek, Filip ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Ruller, Tomáš (advisor)
Openness to a specific experience of being and the possibility of achieving relative perfection at the maximum horizon is essential, as is the subsequent move beyond this horizon, that is to say the fulfillment of its potential at its maximum level, culminating in the performative act. This leads us to a link that is the confirmation of authenticity, the reality of presence. Such presence is then autotelic. Potential, updated as such, is in its presentation deprived of hedonistic selfishness.

Remains of Internal Emigration
Sližová, Eva ; Polívková, Kamila (referee) ; Klímová, Barbora (advisor)
This diploma project has been gradually composed from performative applications of fragments of my poetry collection which is being written. It deals with the presentation possibilities of literary poetry by its author. Simultaneously it reflects the particulars of my poetry practise that is, amongst other things, strongly inspired by Vladimír Holan's inner emigration. Since I’m working with open material I’m not binding myself to a concrete goal/purpose.

Performance Art as a Border Form of Artistic Expression
Vatulíková, Andrea ; Daněk, Josef (referee) ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Chamonikolasová, Kaliopi (advisor)
While taking into account the field of study of performing arts, I assume that the category called „performing arts“ underwent many reforms in the 20th century, making it almost impossible to set clear boundaries between theatre, dance and performance art. Therefore I deal with their common ground that I call the zero point and that allows me to explore means of expression of human body and also time – space dimension of live action. The zero point is located in the pelvic region of the body and it is the center of stability, balance and life enegry. In my dissertation I focus on the analysis of physical trainings that work with the zero point in theater, dance and performance arts. Primary output of this work is then analysis of physicality as culturally encoded construct and the practical part of disseration is focused on the realisation of the point zero symposium.

Archives and documentation of performance art: at the intersection between history and myth.
Písaříková, Jana ; Šedivá, Barbora (referee) ; Havlík, Vladimír (referee) ; Horáková, Jana (referee) ; Ruller, Tomáš (advisor)
The PhD thesis deals with the role of archives in the contemporary artistic and curatorial practice, with an emphasis on the performance art. It also analyses the creation process, methodology and the contents of selected personal and institutional archives in both Czech and international contexts. The objective of the paper is to answer the following questions: In what way is the documentation and subsequent archiving of process-oriented forms of art performed? How is the history of the contemporary art formed and interpreted through these archives and with the help of the artistic and curatorial practice? To what extent are we able to reconstruct the history from records and performance documents that are only fragmented, thus making a reference to a real action? Do the archives leave some room for misinterpretation, creating a myth or personality cult through its system of classification of knowledge? How indeed is the performance art related to its own history; how is this history perceived by the performer alone; and how is it approached by the professional audience? The paper will also include the analysis of current state and possible solutions to the operation of the archive of the Faculty of Fine Arts, which is related to opening a dialogue among artists, theorists and institutions that might be interested in better accessibility of such an archive.

Performance and performance philosophy
MARTINEK, Filip Gorazd
This diploma thesis aims to acquaints the kind reader with the issue of performance. However, the approach to performance in this work is rather philosophical. Methodologically, we find ourselves between performance and philosophy. The reader is first acquainted with the narrative of a specific performance, performative turn and performance studies. A definition of performance is provided with an application to history, in which there are also completely new insights into what we can consider a real performance. Moreover, history itself is addressed through philosophy. A large part of the work deals with the explanation of the philosophical work of Tomas Ruller. The final part of the thesis introduces the reader the possibility of establishing philosophical anthropology in the work of Edita Stein, which is the opposite of the contemporary trend of anti-essentialism.

The artistic part represents realised projects and inspired chosen works. The third part is comprised of evaluated questions, investigations into the relationship Basic school students have with contemporary art and a proposal for the possible exploitation of the explored approaches to work in artistic projects for older students of Basic schools.

Plastic expressions of students with multiple disabilities
Brunová, Tiziana ; Čech, Viktor (advisor) ; Sedlák, Michal (referee)
The thesis deals with the topic of the differences in human corporeality as uniqueness of our existence. It is divided into four parts. The theoretical part defines the concept of corporeality and the associated topics of self- concept, self-acceptance and self-presentation, with an emphasis on supporting the development of people with combined disabilities. Furthermore, the theoretical part deals with the use of human body in art, especially modern art - action art, based on ritual, and body-art. The didactic part brings a proposal to adapt the curriculum of the school program of Ceramic Production for pupils with combined disabilities, by assigning suitable artistic tasks using the material of ceramic clay. The presented result is a series of art lessons - methodological sheets for four teaching blocks focused on the use of physical gestures, emotions and self-concept by students with combined disabilities. The aim is to involve pupils with all types of disabilities, and cause their conscious use of physicality in working with ceramic clay. The research uses the method of qualitative research, namely a questionnaire survey and participatory observation. Research has confirmed that the art lessons series is suitable for pupils with all types of disabilities, and namely that adapting tasks to...
