Basic information

Language of instruction:	English
Type of course:	Non-Departmental Elective
Course Level:	Bachelor’s Degree (First Cycle)
Mode of Delivery:	Face to face
Course Coordinator :	Dr. Öğr. Üyesi İPEK TORUN
Recommended Optional Program Components:	None
Course Objectives:	The objective of the course is to use drawing as a creative tool to understand, communicate and interpret various artist’s works, art movements and various art theories. Students are encouraged to develop their ability in drawing as an expression and to further their critical analysis and communication effectiveness in drawing. This course aims to develop an understanding of the theory and history of art in relation to individual’s drawing projects. This course includes directed readings. Studio experience in addition to outside research and practices compose the core of drawing II course where body, visual memory and perceptual performance is questioned, communicated and interpreted.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Master in making sketches with ink and other water based drawing materials
2) Gain the routine of drawing daily to develop own drawing language
3) Use literacy to understand art theories, art movements and artist’s manifestations of art
4) Provide a routine to make use of relevant literary material and writing to communicate individual’s own artistic approach
5) Define “signs” inside verbal, social, cultural material
6) Study the relationship between “signs” and art
7) Experiment with line
8) Experiment with materials
9) Learn to make research from various resources to deepen on creative process
10) Manage time productively
11) Create a productive working plan(sub-learning outcome)
12) Identify progress potential and weak points
13) Trust on intuition and individual’s insights as well as insight of other class members after adequate research and sketches in the progress of a project.

Course Content

The course is structured in three parts.
First part aims students to practice various qualities of water based painting and drawing materials. Experimenting with various materials on different compositions is expected on small and big scales. An experimental drawing language of individual is explored. In addition, literary resources selected by students are added to the presentations of experimental Works.
Second part of the course will concentrate on the research of artistic movements, art theories and various artist’s works. Lectures and student seminars aim to approach diverse artistic manifestations. Out of class visits to art shows, exhibitions support class research and work to give insight and inspiration for individual work. Choosing texts and writing about them as well as about the art Works visited are natural components of this process. “Signs” and “memories” are defined within verbal, social and cultural materials during this process.
The third part will cover to provide more space to students to Express themselves in portraits. Context and composition of the work will make use of previous research and literacy skills on signs and memories to render portraits in a creative and innovative way.
