Study Objectives:

Cílem studia je schopnost „více vidět skutečnost“ a být schopen analyzovat rozmanitost jejích forem, tvarů, linií, hmot, barev a světelných vlastností, vzájemných vztahů věcí a následně technických a výrazových možností výtvarného vyjádření. Za nejdůležitější považuji otázky prostorového vnímání a chápaní skutečnosti, skladebnosti vztahů věcí a hmot, problém zákonitostí kompozice a znalost psychologických aspektů barev.

Mode of delivery:

In painting a still life, students are guided to an understanding of its element as matter, form and materially autonomous actors in a scene. In order to create these things as a living, rich and finally, an organic whole, each element must have its own unmistakeable character. The this diversity may create a unit which has the expressive power of a picture of the world of „a fixed for eternity“ - still life.

Painting a nude is not to be understood merely as a study of the human anatomy, but an examination of the mutual relationship of body proportions, issues of light, color and matter but as well expression of an elementary position - the human body in the space of the world.
