Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with using (and also abusing) fine arts and visual culture generally in a political life of society or more precisely to the propagation of various interests of particular social classes, national groups or political parties and totalitarian regimes in modern times. Simultaneously are pursued issues of art collecting and benefactoring as individual, collective or state supporting of arts.
On the basis of detailed analysis of inidividual art monuments, their origins, reflections, critical appraising, appreciation or rejection, students explore the relations of society, more precisely individual social classes or groups, to the concrete art works. Primary aim is obtaing the ability to work with different types of pictural, written, and material sources from different periods.
