The course aims to provide the knowledge and skills necessary to consciously apply the language of design, aimed at analyzing, understanding, relief and communication of the morphology of the artifacts paintings on canvas, the wooden artifacts and multi-material artifacts. Part of the course is dedicated to the documentation and cataloging of cultural heritage as a first approach to knowledge

The course aims to provide, on the one hand, a basic understanding of the historical and scientific foundations of the encoded methods of graphic representation that allows you to read, in the works of figurative art, the geometric structure, the other the theoretical and practical tools for analyze and represent through a conventional language artifacts of a different nature .The representation techniques used will range from the traditional ones of freehand drawing and technical drawing to digital supported by specific software, with particular reference to the documentation of the restoration sites.

Capacity of analysis of the structure of the graphic work of graphic art and the recognition of the geometrical shape of the article in relation to its timing, of rappresentarecon capacity digital instruments scale artifacts through different methods and techniques of graphic representation, and ability to identify rebuild the representation methods used in historical iconography. Ability to document the steps of knowledge activities of a work in relation to the subsequent intervention.

The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it

Teaching

The course consists of a series of lectures about the framework of the discipline and application examples. They are expected to complement the lectures, practical exercises designed to develop the analysis, interpretation, the relief and the representation of the investigated products, to be carried out in part during school hours, assisted by the teacher, and partly at home . The tables prepared during the course will be corrected, commented and evaluated and form part of the final evaluation.

It will also be asked to draft a study written relative to the theoretical themes developed in the course, accompanied by an application table of the chosen topic.

Attendance

Recommended frequency of lessons.
And practical exercises are an integral part of the final preparation and should be completed in all their parts.
