Teaching goals (program content, subject description)

Course Description:
The painting curriculum serves the purpose of developing a creative attitude. By convention, it can be assumed that it consists of two mutually complementary parts. The first part, which can be called objective, is connected with the basic problems of painting. It is the observation of nature, the problem of transferring our perception of the surrounding reality into the language of painting. Determination of color, shaping the form, composition of individual elements, study of relations between them, the problem of light, color range, space, plans, painting technique. All these elements can be acquired by the student only through long-term, systematic work.
The second part, which can be called subjective, is inseparably connected with the first, and consists in emphasizing the individual features of the student, what is personal and original in his work. New solutions are created as a result of previous painting experience enriched by classes in drawing, structure studio, fabric, graphics, etc., as well as observation of the work of colleagues. The search for his own creative path is also influenced by life experiences, reflections, accelerated intellectual and artistic maturation, which takes place at the university. The reason for the creation of a painting becomes important. While paying attention to the emergence of new original themes in student works, it should be remembered that they should be set in the categories mentioned in the first part, which should be the basis for new realizations.


Didactic objectives:
- realization of basic problems of painting construction and conscious improvement of painting technique
- searching for one's own, recognizable language of artistic expression, taking into consideration all the means of artistic creation available nowadays, defining the artist's attitude to the place, environment and reality in which he creates, especially to himself
- ability of theoretical reflection and public self-presentation of one's own work
