The course New Trends in Visual Art 1 combines lectures and guided tours of contemporary art exhibitions. The aim of the course is to identify, using specific examples of artists and trends, the relationships between 20th-century art and contemporary art, where it is necessary to describe the complex relationships between the avant-garde, the neo-avant-garde, and the present, as well as between traditional artistic media and the new media of the digital age, with a higher degree of theoretical reflection. This involves not only the relationships of contemporary art to its predecessors, but also to the transformation in the perception of the world that occurred in the last century as a reflection of current events. Therefore, to understand art, it is often necessary to refer to contemporary scientific and philosophical thought.
General Competencies Students: 1. Perceive contemporary art in the context of cultural, social, and intellectual changes. 2. Integrate knowledge from the fields of visual arts, art theory, philosophy, and science. 3. Seek out and critically utilize relevant sources for their own theoretical reflection. 4. Is familiar with current trends in the visual arts and expresses informed opinions. 5. Ability to formulate and defend one?s own interpretation of works of art.
