Artistic Perception 2 in the Field of Sculpture EP-2F-WAZ2

Artistic vision is a collection of fundamental issues in the field of visual arts: shape, rhythm, texture, balance, space, time, movement, etc. - an attempt at their multilateral / interdisciplinary analysis and definition.

Study of the relationship between the content and the form of visual realization.

The observation of nature as a starting point for the analysis of perception.

Artistic means of expression: value, color, contrast, stain, line, solid, chiaroscuro transferred to the world of space.

Search for harmony, rhythms and contrasts.

Defining the content of a work of art as part of a sculpture workshop. Defining means of expression as part of a sculpture workshop. Defining the meanings of a work of art.

Possibilities and expressive limitations related to the sculptural technique.

Term 2020Z:

The student has knowledge of the basic principles of the implementation of sculptures, including the issues related to the technologies used in the construction of sculptural objects.
The student knows the developmental tendencies in the field of sculpture and sees the relationship between painting and other disciplines.
He consciously uses the learned sculpting techniques, assigning manual skills and workshop knowledge to the implementation of an artistic concept.

The exercise introduces you to spatial thinking and makes you aware of the process of creating a work from sketches and drawing studies to the creation of a spatial form, taking into account both the right proportions and the structure of the object.

Students learn the technology of casting and the principles of sculpture construction

Term 2021Z:

1. Making drawing sketches of the portrayed people. Exercise of observation and similarity.
2. Fabrication of a structure for the sculpture of a human head on a scale of approximately 1: 1
3. Modeling a human head in clay (mutual portrait)
4. Participation or independent execution of a plaster cast (negative and positive form and retouching)

Term 2022Z:

The search for references and associations is the basis for working with your own interpretation of the topic.

Students perform a number of sculptural tasks introducing the basic concepts of creating spatial forms and teaching spatial thinking.

Thinking is accompanied by drawing sketches, which are notes of the thought process, graphic records of emerging ideas. The transition from a note to a spatial form is a fascinating process that the student will explore.

By doing the exercises, students learn about the role of composition, direction, color, counterpoint, dynamics and other means known so far from two-dimensional actions in sculpture,
