Painting is one of the most cognizable and rooted in the tradition areas of art. Therefore, there is an almost infinite range of possibilities to use of his treasured achievements. At the same time painting is a field where clue of imaging is constantly redefining or stretching in semantic and technical way. Therefore we try to give students as wide as possible offer with multiple cognitive tools. In this meaning the most important is ability to see and understand reality, but manual skills during contact with the nature is our mandatory as well. That’s why on the beginning we focus on study task like: act, portrait, still life, landscape. Topics cover issues connected with social life, politics, religion, and of course the art – its role in the world today. To the most popular topics in last year’s we can include: “Media hype”, “Is the hazard in art?”, “What’s up in politics?”, “Olympic Games”, “The street”, “Conventional – unconventional”, “I like it, I interested, It’s what I’m looking for”, “Public space – private space”, “Lampedusa – utopia of freedom”, “Intertextuality of art”. In case of painting techniques chosen by students we don’t make limitations – the student could use techniques best suited to him/her.
