Sonic spaces in visual art

In the diploma thesis entitled Sonic Spaces in Visual Art, I explore various ways of using sound within the context of visual art and gallery art. Through the history of 20th century art, I try to find and present the different causes for the creation of sound installations, as we know them today, and to highlight the various artists and artistic movements that include audio elements in their works. Through the analysis of these specific artworks, I try to present the formal and conceptual potentials offered by the use of audio material in the context of art. As sound installations and other derivatives of sound art essentially fall within the domain of intermedia art, I briefly introduce intermedia art at the beginning of the theoretical part. Due to the nature of my own artwork, I explore not only intermedia art, but also interactive art. In my own artwork, I use sound as an equal sculptural material and at the same time as a conceptual tool. The practical part of the diploma thesis therefore presents some of my works, which incorporate sound elements, and briefly describes the basic concept of the projects, as well as material and technical solutions for specific works. The pedagogical part of the diploma thesis concentrates on contemporary intermedia art and the use of new technologies within the educational process. I also discuss the substantial absence of contemporary art in the curriculum for art education. Based on this, I create a lesson plan for an art workshop where students learn about contemporary creative approaches in artistic production and familiarize themselves with the creation of multimedia art
