Anotace studijního programu
The FINE ART post-Bachelor (Master’s) programme of study targeted on preparation of author personalities capable of influencing the broad field of contemporary visual art via their creation, with a specific focus on the fields of photography and intermedia creation, but also with possible overlaps in other disciplines. (Individual FAD studios can contribute to development of specific areas of this wide spectrum of activities depending on their profiles and creative orientation of their heads, in the form of hosting a student at the given site.)
The course focuses mainly on developing personalities of students and their ability to use their work to express their creative and civic attitudes to relevant topics, and thus, among others, to help development of visual culture or visual literacy of contemporary society. 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 superstandard level of the content of study is supported by the previous foreign activities of the team of knowledgeable pedagogues (positions of a visiting tutors, regular lecture activities abroad, organizing workshops, attending creative stays, and prestigious exhibition activities), as well as by involvement of native speakers.
At the same time, a student of this programme will get acquainted with principles of polemical-critical thinking, and develop ability of perception, analysis, and reflection of an artwork as a reference frame of their own creation. The concept of study will also allow them to get a basic knowledge of Czech cultural milieu as well as a broader frame of contemporary Central European visual culture, and to participate in local cultural activities.
A graduate from the FINE ART programme of study is professionally equipped with systematic, structured knowledge and skills enabling them to start a career of a freelance artist, a senior creative agent of advertising and marketing agencies, graphic studios, publishing houses, creative industries, or to take a position of an art mediator or a lecturer in creative workshops.
