| Popis: |
This bachelor thesis will focus on the work of the sculptor František Bílek (1872-1941) in České Budějovice. Bílek created two monumental sculptural works right in the city - a stone monument to the writer Otakar Mokrý (1919) in today's Na Sadech park and several pieces of sculpture decoration in the interior of the Husův sbor church (1924) on today's Palacký square. Preparatory drawings and sculptures for both works have been preserved in the collections of Aleš South Bohemian Gallery in Hluboká. The aim of the thesis will be primarily a thorough iconographic analysis of Bílek's monumental realizations and also their art-historical analysis, while the author will use the just-mentioned related works in AJG. The author will also focus on the ordering context of the creation of the monument and the church decoration, or the position of both works in Bílek's related work. If it is possible and appropriate, the author will include references to other works in the AJG, which illustrate the iconographic and material breadth of Bílek's work. |
