Natural colors through the eyes of pre-school children - developing color sensibility
Plzáková, Gabriela ; Kafková, Helena (advisor) ; Kitzbergerová, Leonora (referee)
The bachelor's thesis focuses on the development of sensory sensitivity of preschool children through natural media and is divided into a theoretical part and a practical part. The theoretical part of the thesis examines colors and their perception in nature, the use of natural media in contemporary visual arts, and the planning of an art education in kindergarten. The practical part describes the specific planning and implementation of an art series using natural colors and its reflection. The conclusion summarizes the findings, which indicate that some children can be highly sensitive to subtle differences in shades and less saturated colors in nature, although children generally respond best to vibrant and intense colors. The research also highlights that children are capable of independently finding materials and tools for artistic creation and show interest in observing and perceiving the colors of nature. Based on the findings, the thesis formulates principles for planning art activities with natural colors.

The analysis draws an auteur study of this contemporary director in order to discover what sensibility his cinema demonstrates. Anderson's sentiment causes a reinterpretation of lost values and generates specific thinking, which allow it to be considered as a mediation of his own filmic "philosophy." The backbone theory consists of philosophy, in general, and of postmodernism and metamodernism, specifically. The three postmodern elements to be discussed are the meta-cinematic techniques, pastiche and nostalgia prevalent in Anderson's oeuvre. However, his unique employment of these features transgresses the anticipated postmodern tone and creates a new structure of feeling characterized by metamodern hopefulness. Therefore, Anderson uses postmodern means to create a metamodern sensibility that signalizes sincerity. Focusing on the three above-mentioned attributes of Anderson's filmography in both a postmodern and metamodern context helps to deconstruct his highly visual and thematically patterned cinema in order to reveal where the particular sensibility of the director stems from. The analysis of Anderson's eight features-Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Darjeeling Limited,...
