Magic Mountain

Al-Hadid, Diana 01 January 2005 (has links)
My installations are propositions for an imaginary world that relies on its own internal logic, a world of believability without recognition. While the work references landscape it also emphasizes its contrivance, as it is automatically estranged in an "unnatural" gallery setting. I subvert or de-familiarize the materials and processes that I use in the service of creating a fictitious environment. My places are impossible places. They are irregular, illogical, and unstable. Our imagination can be one of most dangerous things to psychological stability as it is an inventory of all things possible, no matter how irrational or improbable. The irrational is always an option, a lingering threat. The imagination seems to hate permissions and limitations, but is nevertheless lodged within them. I want to create a sense of nonsensical logic. If all things that can be imagined are logical possibilities, I want to find the place where fantasy seems to be just barely reality. If I can't have an inherent contradiction, I'll take an apparent one.

Genius loci jako estetický problém / Genius loci as an aesthetic issue

Křížová, Lucie January 2016 (has links)
(in English): Diploma thesis Genius loci as an aesthetic problem is addressed by defining the concept of genius loci and exploring its aesthetic implications and parallels. After clarification of the ontological nature of this phenomenon its commonalities will be monitored with selected concepts of environmental philosophy and aesthetics, especially the aesthetic dimension of the environmental experience. Publications of Christian Norberg-Schulz and David E. Cooper are used as a starting material.

Příroda versus město. (Napětí mezi oběma fenomény jako téma v umění a ve výtvarné výchově) / Nature versus city (The tension in between of these phenomenons as theme in art and art education )

Mužíková, Emmy January 2018 (has links)
The thema of my thesis is Nature versus City. The terms nature and the city are presented as separate and connected terms in the theoretical part, which is the focus of the thesis. The relationship between nature and cities is presented like inconsistent and also like consistent. The aim of the theoretical part is to answer questions about whether nature in towns is important to their inhabitants and why. The thema nature versus the city is connected with fine arts, concrete examples of artists and their works. Among other things, I deal with the concepts of ecology and the environment across the work. I deal also with questions about the current social and environmental situation of the planet, which are complemented by examples of artists who incorporate this theme into their works, emerge from the text. My own art work is based on the theoretical part, its center is performance in the public space. I have come up with gradual development to the final performance, which simultaneously had site-specific features. The theoretical part is followed by art education etudes, in which the relationship of nature and the city is transformed, in parallel with the integration of environmental education. In realizing the artistic tasks, the aim was to encourage pupils to interconnect nature and the city. And...

Dalens Ande : ett konstprojekts transformation till en etik- och moralfråga

Wikström-Hedman, Kristina January 2000 (has links)
’Dalens Ande’ är ett kommunalt konstprojekt i Säter. Enligt den ursprungliga planeringen skulle det pågå under tre somrar. Det ingår i hela Säterdalsprojektet, vilket syftar till att lyfta fram en säregen miljö och natur. Konstutställningen Dalens Ande var redan den första sommaren (1998) mycket uppmärksammad, inte minst i lokalpressen. Efterhand följde den affekterade insändardebatt som lett till den ’etiska vändning’ som denna uppsats huvudsakligen avser att belysa och analysera. De tolv berörda konstnärerna har beslutat att avsäga sig vidare samarbete med Säters kommun sedan den insändarskribent som de sett sig kränkande behandlade av utsetts till kommunens kulturpristagare. Här presenteras förutom ett urval av nämnda skriverier även som referenser en kort sammanfattning av Kants sedelära samt övrigt artikelmaterial som behandlar problemställningens delfrågor; yttrandefrihet kontra ärekränkning, pressetik och begreppet ’konstskandal’.

Vertikály krajiny / Vertical motives of landscape

HORYNOVÁ, Alžběta January 2010 (has links)
This final work is practically oriented. It consists of painting series of eight landscapes with vertical themes. These are large format oil paintings. In the theoretical part I deal with the current perception of the relationship between man and land, which is based on the current concepts of landscape-painting. The examples of contemporary Czech landscape show some topics that have appeared in the last forty years. For example it is a landscape as a specific interface and abstract paintings, a landscape inside us, a landscape of our civilization. The thesis also discusses vertical motif, which marks the space between the two main elements of the landscape ? the sky and land, which is a fundamental area of human existence.

Revitalisation of Baixa’s historic core through the contextual re-invention of Rua De Bagamoyo as a night-life precinct

Casson, Jacqueline Jean 16 January 2013 (has links)
This dissertation investigates to use and increase existing vibrancy to revitalize an urban environment. The urban response is to consolidate existing functions within Rua De Bagamoyo, as a night- life precinct through the introduction of gaming as an extension of the existing night- life activity. The architectural response is to focus on a building that houses a casino and facility for prostitutes that challenges the private-public relationships of place by extending the street into the built form and the form into the street through a series of threshold spaces that explore the notions of visual and physical access. / Dissertation (MArch(Prof))--University of Pretoria, 2011. / Architecture / unrestricted

Urbanismus a věčné město Řím / Urbanism and the Eternal City of Rome

Mele, Valentino January 2019 (has links)
Master's thesis is devoted to the topic of urban planning and the city of Rome. The aim of the thesis is to explore the ways of depicting urbanism in contemporary fine arts, forms and topics in which it is presented. Furthermore, the essential part of the work is the history of urbanism, the principles and deviations of urbanism and especially the Eternal City (Rome). As far as Rome is concerned, the author discusses her foundations, the growth of the city from the very beginning of the foundation, the influences of urbanism, the demonstration of the characteristics of the ancient "urbe" and how today's contemporary artists solve new ways of urbanization, or how and in what way they are inspired by Roman cities? An important element of the cities is not only the city planning itself, but also its Genius loci, the spirit of the place, the author separates and explores the cities of the day and the night cities and explores what are their differences in character. An important part of the thesis will be: How do today's children perceive cities, what do they mean to them? What do they think is important and what is the function of a city? How can a city educate a child culturally? The author will propose a set of art assignments for primary and secondary school pupils, which will present the...
