In line with technological concerns, the chair of Atelier II - Painting, aims to fit a traditional model of the supposed teaching of Fine Arts with the requirements of the contemporary artistic situation. The chair of theoretical and practical features as strategy the scientific-pedagogical possibility of building autonomy, by way of a harmonious approach between thinking and doing, between the project and the process of critical reflection and the result. So is providing the tools necessary for understanding the territories of contemporary art practice.
Program
The programmatic contents in the chair of Atelier II - Painting, are based on the study and pictorial status of the organization, consistency and unpredictability of the unity of languages, the adequacy of quality and quantity in the sense of scale and support, management of space between chaos and order, and a matrix between reason and the accident. That includes, among other areas, a context of formulation of a research project that enables the development of knowledge with aesthetic and creative skills, thereby consolidating levels that are determined by the integrated development of languages in the various fields of plastic representation, technology and workshop on the fundamentals basics to the practice, the sedimentation of theoretical and practical knowledge that could organize knowledge and discourse; in developing strategies of analysis and synthesis, in considering the speculative nature of research, the need for effective thinking and making art as an exercise of constant invention and rediscovery.
