A good death
Malo, Klára ; Filipová, Markéta (referee) ; Raimund, Karolina (advisor)
In my thesis I am working on the motifs I have been working on for the last three years, namely the motifs of contemporary funeral rites of passage against the background of historical ones. I note how we consciously and unconsciously displace these rituals from our lives and wonder why this is so and whether anything could be done about it. The Good Death is a hand-embroidered tapestry that illustrates with a slight exaggeration some of the contemporary phenomena of people's relationship to death, and confronts the audience with their own attitudes towards it.

Mannerist Tapestries in the Czech Republic
Sulíková, Daniela ; Jarošová, Markéta (advisor) ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (referee)
The thesis Mannerist Tapestries in the Czech Republic is focusing on the topic of mannerist tapestries in the Czech Republic. So far this subject remains, in both czech and foreign professional literature, without any greater attention and if the topic is mentioned, the expressions "late renaissance", "mannerism" and "early baroque" are very often mixed. For this reason, it is necessary to define "mannerist tapestry", based on formal analysis, comparison and focusing on cultural-historical background. After this theoretical part, it will be possible to place certain tapestries to this very short art period or vice versa to exclude them. The main part is focused on mannerist tapestries from the castles, museums, ect. of the Czech Republic and their inclusion in the European context. Key words Mannerism, Tapestry, Decorative arts of the16th century, Art collections from the Czech Republic
