Architecture in Art Education

Class at Faculty of Education |
OPNV3V004C

Annotation

The course focuses on the perception and experiencing of architecture and space in the city and beyond, by examining places that students know well and through which they go through daily, but without perceiving their unique characteristics. The course does not represent the teachings of architectural theory, but attempts to open up a different view of the space in which we move.

It focuses on the phenomenology of architecture and its possible use in art education. Students will explore this topic from several angles.

Students will try out the topics the course deals with (city, house, road, place memory) from the position of an artist, teacher and researcher. They will examine the A/r/tography method as a current research methodology.

Teaching takes place individually, where students work together, motivate and reflect on each other. The topic of the course is the loci of a certain perception of a place and artistic activity as its transformation.

Didactic use of knowledge gained in the course and transfer of this knowledge into pedagogical practice. Part of the course is a presentation of the author's portfolio or a joint exhibition, part of which is a written reflection and self-assessment of the art process.

Understanding and placing one's own work in the context of contemporary art, through a visit to an exhibition at a gallery institution focusing on architecture. The aim of the course is to understand the connection between the functions of architecture in the visual arts, in one's own and children's work.

Ability to transform acquired knowledge and art skills into didactic competencies of a teacher. Creating an example lesson covering the topics covered.
