This studio focuses on artistic projects based predominantly on conceptual approach to photography, which is perceived as a complex, currently highly transformative, barely graspable and ambiguously definable entity, based on principles of visual communication that may include, for example, elements of graphic design or dynamic media. At the same time however, students can express themselves through traditional expressional forms too. Both individual and group tutoring the lectures are based on, build upon a mutually enriching dialogue between teachers and students, as well as upon contact with similarly directed studios at departments of electronic image, photography and visual communication. Student comes through a systematic vocational training preparing them for a professional career of a freelance artist, but also through an inspiring milieu of a community consisting of students who come from various cultural (and language) environments. The conception of the study emphasizes the student's readiness for programmed (conceptual) artistic activity relying not only on professional skills and knowledge of the whole wide range of artistic means and tools of related disciplines, but also on the essential need to base their work on previous theoretical study and critical analysis. It is not possible to exactly define themes (syllabus) of teaching per weeks (blocks) of courses, as this is a type of teaching specific for art colleges. This subject has a form of studio teaching, which is very flexible and tries to address individual needs of students, both in the field of theory and of practical realization of the resulting product-artifact. This means that during the entire semester unique current topics (theoretical, technological) are solved according to how the gradual realization of individual projects develops depending on specific assignments. Therefore, the topics being solved cannot be strictly defined in advance, as they gradually crystallize during the semester.
The gained capabilities constitute an encompassment and an aquirement of knowledge and experience in the given field of study, they result from a concrete annotation of the subject and are aimed at a profile´s fulfilment of the graduate of the given field of study.
