The Critical Thinking module(ARD-549) asked the question: Where do we - students, do academic art education? What is our perception of art and economy? In what direction should we go? Several important aspects were given that should be addressed when looking for an answer to the question raised. We were also asked to give an example of an artist who we consider as a role model.

Golem (Hebrew … גולם goylem) - a creature made of clay in the shape of a man, but without a soul that understands neshama, and therefore also the ability to speak. The Hebrew word golem appears only once in the Bible, in Psalms 139: 16, a verse the Talmudic tradition places on Adam's mouth.. The subject of creating artificial life fascinated many artists. Mary Shelley created perhaps the most famous such character in her novel "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus" In addition to conservative opposition to artificial intelligence from artistic circles, we increasingly...

The topic of the last classes was ethics in art. The conversation and reflection on this subject should begin with defining what this ethics is In the scientific sense, ethics, along with aesthetics, is a branch of axiology, i.e. a branch of philosophy dealing with the study of values.

Ethics in the colloquial sense is the totality of moral norms recognized at some time by a social community as a...

Success evokes positive emotions and makes us think of ourselves as a causative and valuable entity, socially desirable. The event as such becomes the basis for inference about our own subject. The situation begins to evolve in us as information about our e.g. intelligence or professionalism. "I'm so great," I start to think.

Otherwise, rightly so, because only thanks to them it can become a developmental and valuable lesson. They pinch us...
