Ztohoven
PADRTOVÁ, Kristýna
The main theme of my bachelor's thesis is an art group Ztohoven. The goal is to describe characteristics of their work and chart completely all their projects from first one in 2003 till the progress of the last one in spring 2017. At the same time I tried to chart briefly art-historical development of action art, which Ztohoven's work comes from. I also focused on similar Czech art groups, to compare their works to Ztohoven's activity at the thesis conclusion.

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.

Sládková, Hana ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Pachmanová, Martina (referee) ; Vančát, Jaroslav (referee) ; Petříček, Miroslav (referee)
The purpose of the disertation From Art Criticism to Art Journalism? Czech Arts Writing after 1989 is to find out how did the Czech politics and society transformation influence the character of art critique, particularly the visual arts reflection. How did the post-1989 art critique deal with the communist regime past and relics? How was the art critique influenced by the art development and by the changes in the media structure and functioning? Content analysis of selected periodicals texts from the 1990s enables us to follow if and how do the form and content of the visual arts reflecting texts mirror the communication, art and media character and structure development. The topic connects media and communication studies with visual studies and art theory. Hanka Sladkova
