Exercises in Modern Art I

The content of the course is linked to the lectures and seminars on Modern and Contemporary Art in Slovenia, but at the same time it responds to the actual events (important exhibitions, retrospectives, artistic events etc.). Under the supervision of the lecturer, the students develop and deepen the theoretical knowledge, which they had acquired at the lectures, in practice by analysing specific monuments and by considering specific artistic events, home and abroad. The contents of the course are chosen in such a way, so that the students can be confronted with as complex and diverse problems of modern and contemporary artistic creativity (urbanism, architecture, sculpture, painting, new media, interior design) as possible, while at the same time represent a well-rounded professional approach (visual, iconographic, social, cultural-political, philosophical, etc.).
