2026W, Lecture with Practical Exercises (VU), 2.0 ECTS, 2.0 semester hours, course number S02688

Description

Life drawing, an essential component of the Object Studies course, explores the connection between traditional and progressive, as well as formally structured and artistically free, content. You will capture the figure in all its unique characteristics (proportion, expression, form, position in space) using your chosen technique, thereby developing your own perception and multifaceted drawing skills. The course also offers ample opportunity for freehand drawing on a large scale and experimentation.

Individual feedback based on the drawings will analyze and foster your independent development.

Please bring your own materials!

Examination Modalities

20 sheets, minimum size: DIN A3 (42 x 29.7 cm) or larger. Each sheet must be labeled with first name, last name, student ID number, and date of creation (on the back).

The exam dates will be announced in due course.

Exam dates (SS 2026) can be arranged by email: judith-p.fischer@uni-ak.ac.at
