Content:

This course aims to foster the content-related and formal refinement of each student’s individual artistic process. Participants will develop advanced knowledge and practical competence in the use of artistic materials and media, as well as a heightened sensitivity to aesthetic phenomena. The course promotes an understanding of art-theoretical discourses and a nuanced perception and contextualization of diverse artistic positions. Students will be encouraged to critically reflect on their own artistic practice within the framework of contemporary artistic concepts and to strengthen their ability to engage in dialogue within artistic discourse.

Artistic Practice V:
This course focuses on the further development and deepening of the individual artistic approach. Emphasis is placed on independent research, planning, and conceptualization of ongoing artistic work. Students are encouraged to explore experimental artistic strategies aimed at expanding their own artistic perspectives. The course includes discursive group discussions, in which works are analyzed and critically reflected upon, as well as detailed analyses of individual works with regard to both form and content.
