Course detail

Studio I - Environment - winter

FaVU-B1EN-ZAcad. year: 2013/2014

The Environment Studio Program is intended as a creative approach to the environment; to place. It is defined in it's widest sense here – locally, institutionally, historically, or/and, geopolitically, virtually, mentally and so on. – primarily as a shared space, a context.
The substance of the studio is not bound by media traditionally associated with the fine arts. This opens up a whole range of approaches and interdisciplinary cooperation.

One key part is the critical reading of literature and texts connected with the programme of the Studio and with individual work. A parallel programme maps various locally specific problems and issues relating to creative methods, media and generally with production and presentation of contemporary art. At the same time, the events of the day in a wider contemporary art and cultural context both in the Czech Republic and internationally.
