Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

2. render the human figure and the objects’ composition with materials such as charcoal, acrylics, pencil, and ink, etc.
3. Understand concepts such as volume, space, rhythm, intensity, dynamics, contrast, balance, and abstract composition.
4. study the human body motion and its development in space.
5. study in-depth the human figure from a human model, through three-dimensional plastic sketches with clay (terracotta) and introductory elements for human anatomy.
6. have the ability to render, planes, volume, negative and positive space in the human figure.
7. adapt in a small scale maquette a life-size sculpture concept, through preliminary sketches and sketches in clay (bozzetto).
8. Understand the multiple ways of human figure depictions through art history with an emphasis on contemporary sculpture.
