Objectives and competences

To familiarize the students with the basics of constructing drawings in order to be able to: - recognize the quality of drawing works from the history of art and today, - master the drawing construction of complex forms based on the construction of simple geometric bodies, - design and create a perspectivist drawing, - use the sighting technique as an aid in transferring images from 2D to 3D, - gain the ability to see (first source) and the ability to comprehend (second source), - understand the historical context of the Renaissance space and the use of perspective in representational art, as well as using this knowledge in practice, - understand the value of errors as an important study tool, - draw though observation.

Content (Syllabus outline)

- Symbolic and operational aspects of perspectivist representations. - Invention and history of perspectivist representation. - Construction of basic geometric bodies. - The basics of constructing more complex forms with the help of geometric shapes and bodies. - Perspectivist representation of angular and soft shapes. - Perspective as a symbolic significance grid. - Spatial studies (horizon and vanishing point ellipse mirroring, shadows ...). - Sighting as an aid in transferring an image from 3D to 2D. - Planning of a scenographic environment. - Planning of the spatial formation of the urban whole. - Stereometric and planimetric drawing principles. - Drawing genres and techniques. - Final exhibition.

Learning and teaching methods

Individually: - individual artistic guidance (explanation, discussion, demonstration) - consultations, help in searching the appropriate material for studio work. In groups: - visiting most important fine art exhibitions with organised guidance and study excursions.

Intended learning outcomes - knowledge and understanding

Knowledge and understanding: After successfully completing the module, the students will: - acquire spatial imagination, - be able to construct simple and complex forms with drawing tools, - understand the proportions, - understand and master spatial plans, - be familiar with spatial keys and know how to use them in practical work.

Intended learning outcomes - transferable/key skills and other attributes
