SHORT ADVANCED PROGRAMME
Drawing, Technology & Cultural Heritage – 2nd edition
7 May 2024
In today’s technologically driven society, what role does traditional drawing play in preserving our cultural heritage?
The RUN-EU Short Advanced Programme (SAP) ‘Drawing, Technology & Cultural Heritage’ – 2nd edition will help discover how traditional values intersect with contemporary art & design practice and technological sophistication.
This course aims to provide an in-depth analysis of visual note-taking and the methodology of ‘thinking on paper’, the process making of visual and contextual observations and the subsequent stages involved in building connections for meaningful narrative and composition.
Students will receive instruction in perspective studies, the importance of the underdrawing and approaches to observational drawing, advice on storytelling, conceptual art and the creation of digital augmented reality exhibition pieces.
This SAP is jointly coordinated by the Technological University of the Shannon (TUS), and the Polytechnic University of Cávado and Ave (IPCA).
