Obsah

Documentary photography encompasses a wide range of interpretations and approaches. Starting with the attempt to capture reality, the emphasis on realism, or the subordination of intention to a certain concept or ideology. Documentary photography has undergone enormous development, especially in the last century, and in the Czech tradition it can also be based on truly significant milestones. It is essential to include this tradition among the sources, rarely among the actual starting points. Allan Sekula pointed out 40 years ago, in relation to photographic documentary or social photography, the failure of the aesthetics of realism, which paradoxically puts the depicted individuals in the role of passive victims, something to which we have been quite successfully resistant for many decades as viewers and receivers of these visual messages due to the influence of the media.

Výsledky učení

First year students work under the guidance of a studio manager with frequent consultations with assistants. They learn to define their intention and to find the most appropriate audiovisual means for its presentation, and in the explication they put emphasis on the reflection of their creative process.

Second-year students develop their themes and chosen media, with an emphasis on working in the context of contemporary visual arts and social sciences. The project is classified in terms of historical development as well as contemporary tendencies in the explication of the project.

Year 3 students work on collaborative and individual projects within the studio, exploring ways of possible presentation or engagement with wider platforms, familiarising themselves with gallery operations and contemporary presentation platforms. In the winter semester, they can take part in an Erasmus internship. In the summer semester they work on their qualifying thesis, which they present in the process at the final exam. They expand their adjustment techniques and other ways of sharing their results.
