Learning outcomes
The lecture series is devoted to the current research contributions of individual lecturers on their chosen topics. The lecturers are generally invited guests from other universities and research institutes in the Czech Republic, with whom their professional topic is discussed in advance in order to contribute to the expansion of the students' professional methodological approaches. Academic and scientific staff from the Department of Art History of the Faculty of Arts of Palacký University also presents current topics in the series. Lectures by foreign scholars are included in the programme whenever possible. The lectures do not have an overview character, but are instead the lecturers' new research contributions. The series is structured to cover the entire temporal spectrum of the subject matter from Antiquity to the 21st century and to enable the presentation of current trends in the theory and history of visual arts, museum and gallery presentation and conservation and restoration of cultural artefacts.
Deepening the knowledge of the lectured topics. Final discussions to promote the development of critical thinking and students' ability to conduct their own research.
