Course detail

Studio IV - Drawing and Printmaking - summer

FaVU-B4GR-LAcad. year: 2017/2018

The pivotal disciplines in the studio are printmaking and drawing - these are further developed and transformed into other media. We are not dogmatic or conservative, we do not think and work within predetermined mantinels. The team is reflected not only in an atmosphere of mutual cooperation and assistance that reigns in the studio, but also in "the studio order".
OPEN STUDIO / as an opportunity to gain insight into current events, it is open to the public semester event. Students exhibit, discuss and present their current work. Communicate actively with invited experts and the general public. Open Studio is a format that gives an opportunity for both students and the public insight into the process in the studio.
