Guidelines
Táto diplomová práca skúma vybrané tematické okruhy a prístupy v rámci súčasného rómskeho umenia, a zároveň sa zaoberá možnosťami písania o ňom z pozície dejín umenia. Prvá časť práce sa sústreďuje predovšetkým na metodologické východiská práce, ktoré sa zakladajú na teóriách postštrukturalizmu a postkolonializmu. Jej cieľom je poskytnúť relevantný rozbor tradičných rámcov dejín umenia a načrtnúť možné nové perspektívy v súvislosti s analyzovanou témou. V druhej časti práce budú tieto artikulované závery ďalej rozšírené a rozpracované na príkladoch vybraných diel súčasných umelcov. Zámerom je predstaviť tri štúdie postavené na okruhoch týkajúcich sa času, priestoru a tela. Dôraz je pritom kladený na umelecké stratégie, ktoré využívajú princíp liminality, ambivalencie a ďalšie príbuzné taktiky za účelom dekonštrukcie a následnej rekonštrukcie reprezentácie Rómov v umení aj v ďalších oblastiach.
This thesis is aimed to study selected themes and approaches within Contemporary Roma Art, and at the same time investigate possibilities of writing about this topic from the perspective of Art History. First part of this paper is focused on methodological foundations of presented work with emphasis on poststructuralism and postcolonialism. The objective of this part is to provide relevant analysis of traditional frames of Art History in order to propose possible novel perspectives related to the topic of Contemporary Roma Art. Subsequently, the conclusions will be further developed and extended within the analysis of selected artworks from contemporary artists. The aim is to present three interrealted studies based on themes of time, space and body with the stress placed on artistic strategies using tactics of liminality, ambivalence and other related approaches in order to deconstruct and reconstruct representations of Roma in art and other spheres.
