Overall objectives:

1 - - Acquire knowledge that allows a broad understanding of the relationship between space and work of art.
2 - - Show creative and participative spirit, through the practice of research and experimentation in diverse contexts.
3 - - Present relevant solutions in the use and combination of means, techniques and concepts.
4 - - Reveal a reflexive practice around other expressive means and integrated artistic creation.
5 - - Apply knowledge about proposals of artists through their works.

Assesssment methods and criteria:

Classification Type: Quantitativa (0-20)

Evaluation Methodology:
Combinatorial methods will be used: Demo, dialogic, active and exhibition for practical classes: Fundamental theoretical concepts for the domain in project-development in digital format are provided. To better consolidation of knowledge by the students, practical exercises which apply the methodologies developed are studied. In the practical component of the knowledge acquired through student develops three-dimensional project where it is possible to explore the tools and as a result of this work to test and analyse the results. The assessment is continuous and presupposes attendance, punctuality and participation. Experimentation with conventional three-dimensional media. and the components: 30% Non-recoverable practical work in resourse exam (portrait) 20% Practical work recoverable in resource (portrait interpretation) 30% Recoverable practical work in resource (relief) 20% Practical work not recoverable in resource (anatomical model)
