Course detail

Special morphology - summer

FaVU-1MFSP-LAcad. year: 2010/2011

The classic anatomy of the human being and plastic anatomy for fine artists will be enriched by excursions to the structural micro-world, as well as to the theoretic study of shape and to the anthropological macro-world (the plurality of worlds and the unity of knowledge). General study of shape versus real diversity. Variety and diversity through the systemic evolutionary approach (the shape of the world and the world as shape). The purpose is "morphological thinking": it uses morphological literature and knowledge for solving particular tasks in the field of fine arts.
