Výukové metody
Each significant problem or case is observed on the basis of original literature and critical texts by philosophers, artists, sociologists, art managers, etc. The core goal of the subject is to help students to find relevant information, sufficiently work with texts, and prepare independent presentations with application of real data.

The course offers not only observation and discussion of the current state of art and creative industries, but also opportunity to practice public speech and gain/improve presentation skills. It is very important not only to read, analyze and criticize, but also to represent one’s ideas and suggestions.

Students will be asked to read the most important texts about production, consumption and perception of art and practice their skills of public speech and presentation. The course therefore is important for future professionals, mainly artists, analysts, art critics, curators, art managers, sociologists and everyone interested in the topic.

The course is presented in the form of seminars. Students will be responsible for reading texts beforehand and bringing their critical thoughts, ideas and suggestions to the classroom.
