Aim

Art and communication form the basis for visual cognitive spaces. Examples are selected from the flood of visual phenomena of the present and past, and their pictorial quality is perceived and reflected upon. Through personal aesthetic resonance experiences in receptive and artistic practice, students find their individual path to aesthetic modes of expression and effect, image functions and concepts.
