Odpovědné zadávání veřejných zakázek: výzvy a praxe v České republice
Pijáčková, Veronika
This bachelor thesis deals with responsible public procurement. Responsible public procurement is a current trend in public procurement. This approach emphasises the application of criteria of quality aimed at socially and environmentally responsible criteria and innovation. Using this approach, a public tender can become a tool for applying sustainability principles and addressing problems at regional, local or municipal level. Applying the principles of responsible public procurement allows contracting authorities to use evaluation criteria other than the lowest tender price and to target solutions to problems identified by the contracting authorities themselves in their habitat or institution. As this is a recent trend within Czech public administration, the thesis aims to first conduct literary research focused on this issue. The practical part of the thesis is to identify the attitudes of public sector actors towards the concept and application of responsible public procurement at first. This was conducted by semi-structured interviews followed by analysis of insights gained from respondent´s knowledge, attitude, practice and potential barriers of application. Aim of the second part of the practical part is to create a case study of good practice involving sustainable public procurement criteria, i.e. carry out a public tender followed by evaluation of the gained experience.

The bizarre sensation of real
Zacharová, Dominika ; Spáčilová Blažková, Kateřina (referee) ; Gravlejs, Ivars (advisor)
This work explores the subjective nature of reality. Our view of reality evolves with our surroundings and shapes our unique image of the world. Although a complete escape from reality seems unattainable, we try to look for moments in which we might slow down in an endless stream of events and phenomenons. One of these is the induction of relaxation, which acts as a temporary release from physical and mental stress, even if the actual escape is only temporary. By incorporating works into this space that carry with them a certain disturbing element, I seek to provoke an uncertainty or surprise in the viewers . The work creates situations that confront viewers with an unexpected experience in a seemingly relaxing environment. Which is induced by the appearance of the objects.

When letting light into the room.
Maruškevičová, Nela ; Zlesáková, Markéta (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
In my diploma thesis, I am working on a series of patchworked abstract paintings on textiles which I connect with several glass objects. My source of inspiration is the materialization of my own escapism in the form of daydreaming situated in an illusory landscape/non-landscape. I do not perceive this principle as an escape from life, but as a form of sorting out one's own emotions, thoughts, and the acts of being with oneself. Repetitiveness, everydayness, intimacy and poetics are important principles with which I work when creating works and with the help of which I achieve the desired values of the image. For such conditions, in addition to the purely painting medium, I use everyday fabrics and the soothing rhythmicity of sewing, as well as the need to record using colored surfaces and lines. For me, the formal inspiration is the idea of painting in an extended field and a post-media approach to contemporary painting.

Mountains of laundry
Gogolová, Eliška ; Sedlák, Michal (advisor) ; Vačkář, Adam (referee)
This bachelor thesis Mountains of Laundry aims to look into a three-way relationship among human, landscape and textile, their meanings and mutual influence. Individual chapters dedicated to the art of textile, to respecting traditions as a cultural heritage of the past and its persisting values for today's society, to the way a landscape influences human behaviour and to the actual art interpretation of Mountains of Laundry, they also attempt to depict my personal relationship to cloth. This thesis follows the phenomenon of the gradual return of a textile media into contemporary Czech art and through soft-material pieces of art of particular artists it seeks one specific denominator as well as various grasps of this field. Interviews with designer Tereza Rosalie Kladošová and artist Daniela Mikulášková reveal motivations of artists who work with textile media in applied arts as well as free arts, and they also refer to an issue of necessity to create borders between these two art forms. The way of grasping a tradition linked to a specific region or landscape refers to personal experience in the practical part. Due to the use of the blueprint technique in the artistic part of this thesis, a more detailed introduction of this negative indigo print from its history to its current use in art is also...
