Contents
The course builds on the theoretical topic presented during the conference. The listener learns to apply themes that are not clearly related to his/her work, to navigate them and to use them as sources of inspiration for his/her own work. The course focuses on the communication of the project and related aspects of the work such as the title, artist's statement, supplementary text, mind map, conceptual scheme, etc.
In the area of technical processing, the student focuses on completing and facilitating communication with the viewer, or creating a form of understandable conceptual projects that are further used for communication with the curator or institutions.
1 - joint discussion - introduction to the topic - feedback from the conference, individual presentation of themes
2 - seminar, joint consultation - use of presentation form (title, headline, annotation - statement, additional text, visual appendix, graphic design)
3 - seminar, joint consultation - presentation of the research - the role of the project title as a communication tool
4 - joint consultation - work in process
5 - joint consultation process work - dealing with communication tools - title, supplementary text, diagram, etc.
6 - presentation of the final form of the project
Learning outcomes
The student deepens his/her knowledge of expressive means, technical and content aspects that can be applied in his/her own work. The student can independently place his/her own work in a broader historical and artistic context.
