Literature in moving image. A case study of selected films by Martin Ježek.
Hrončeková, Ivana ; Csefalvay,, Andreas (referee) ; Mazanec, Martin (referee) ; Cenek, Filip (advisor)
The dissertation deals with selected films of experimental filmmaker Martin Ježek, who interpret works of experimental literature of the 1960s, or literary works that preceded it. In this pattern, I follow the tightness of the relationship between literary text and film, which I describe in the analytic explanations of films. Text and film represents three types of application: in structure (script and score), performativity (performative reading of the text in while filming) and in sound of the film. This tightness, the way the text is interpreted, simultaneously defined the categorization of the selected sample. This chapter also represents the catalog of selected films. A special category is the analysis of the aspect of performativity, which is present on three levels: in the situation of film projection, during filming and during post-production of the film. Another level of the work is dedicated to a review of Martin Ježek´s filmography from the perspective of gallery practice and contemporary art. In this part, dissertation also analyses the conceptual strategies and contexts that accompany the filmmaking process. The focus of the research is organically based on the practical part of the dissertation, which takes the form of an author´s video, exhibition and screening program.

Model
Hládeková, Katarína ; Mazanec, Martin (referee) ; Zahoranský, Dušan (referee) ; Fajnor, Richard (advisor)
The dissertation thesis studies the extension of the context of the term model as a means of interpretation for Czech and Slovak post-conceptual works of art. Based on result of a historical excursion into the history of painting, sculpture and architecture, the thesis offers a new typology of a model which is exemplified on particular work of art of Czech and Slovak post-conceptual era in the first two decades of the 21st century. The historical part of the thesis concludes the following: model in the art is an emancipated form originating from different academic as well as layman discourse; emancipated model has a methaphorical layer and thus it reflects wide historical, cultural and social relations. The categories proposed include: a linear model, a physical model, a cognitive model and an immersive model. The linear model encompases the sketch themes and so-called visualization metaphors (graphs, charts, schemes, etc) and originates as a reaction to information saturation and complicated networks. The physical model is a form to architecture and hobby modelling, it is characterised by a simple, „sketchy“ structure reacting to social themes and individual and collective memory. The cognitive model points to the cognitive turn of the society, it evaluates the materialisation of mental space and explains the emancipated model as an open category. Finally, the immersive model interprets the medium of exhibition as a model form which is articulated by and artisitic manifesto or an architectural interference. Another form of immersion that is being discussed in the chapter about immersive models, is a photographic or 3 D computer illusion as a reaction to society‘s virtualisation. Simultaneously to theoretical-historical research, an artistic research was taking place which became the basis for the creation of different categories and typologies of model. Each proposed category thus includes a so-called author‘s note reflecting the practical part of the dissertation thesis.
