“Artistic research as a topic and a problem has become more prominent in academic circles only in the last two decades, with the firs publications published as recently as ten to fifteen years ago, while a major international art exhibitions (dOCUMENTA (13), 2012) and periodicals (Texte zur Kunst 82: Artistic Research, 2011) addressed it only nine years ago. Althougt the topic is quite new, the problem of the relationship between art and research itself has been around for several centuries.”
The “Methods of Artistic Research” course is intended for graduate students of the “visual plastic” program. Lectures and seminars are oriented to expand student's knowledge and assumes familiarization with artistic research methods, the features of their development, the modern expression of artistic research, the features of the research process, examples of artistic research in design and media art, providing a basis for research in other subjects, as well as preparing the Final Work of Master.

The course of creative practice "Manifestation of Visual Ideas" is for MA students and seminar format oriented (i.e. brief introduction lectures are followed by discussions and sharing of experience as well as information). The content of seminars is linked to reviews of visual concepts throughout the known cultural heritage of humankind. This may help to make a decision in the ways of expression and personal creative activities. Five lines mentioned in the program are for one to be chosen to make an artistic research in the discourse selecting texts and examples in art practice, as well as planning personal creative event and seeking to implement a final artwork at the end of semester. The key source of reading is mentioned on the list, therefore I suggest students finding texts themselves. The premise of this course is that theory/philosophy is at the core of visual culture therefore my advise for students is to examine carefully genesis of circumstances and possibilities of the manifestation of visual ideas.
