ECTS - University of Pisa
Conoscenze manualistiche sull'arte moderna
Textbook knowledge of modern art
Starting from the concept of image, the course aims to explore its meaning, its multiple expressive declinations, its progressive evolution from traditional media to digital media, and its encroachments on "irregular" contexts. Themes related to the approach to the reading of the image and its comprehension will then be addressed, reflecting, through specific cases, on the spatial-temporal contexts, languages, codes, and gaze dynamics. Particular attention will be paid to methodological and educational aspects.
The gradual acquisition of knowledge will be verified during the lessons through short exercises, carried out by the teacher together with the students in front of images.
This method can be systematically applied by each student as they prepare for the exam, using the collection of images seen during lectures.
Capacità di orizzontarsi tra i diversi stili artistici
Ability to horizontalize between different artistic styles
At the end of the course and after having passed the exam, the student will be able to orient himself on the themes of the history of modern and contemporary art, and of the wider and more diversified visual culture.
