Objectives
Objectives
General objectives: To deepen and consolidate a set of knowledge and concepts from the Western pictorial tradition that provides the student with a framework to interpret and critically analyse modern and contemporary pictorial artworks considering the major theoretical questions that have historically unfolded around the practice of painting, in its multiple historical, aesthetic, and conceptual dimensions. Specific objectives: Critically analyse the evolution of painting theory and practice from Antiquity to contemporary times, highlighting the main changes and continuities over time. Interrogate and reformulate pre-conceived ideas of what is meant by painting, to broaden the student's horizon of action in the context of their academic research and artistic practice. Stimulate critical thinking and the ability to argue, encouraging students to formulate and articulate their own interpretations and analyses of pictorial artworks.

Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
In this Curricular Unit, a transdisciplinary perspective is adopted, seeking a dialogue between art theory and other areas of knowledge, such as literature, philosophy, sociology, psychology, and politics. During classes, the analysis and discussion of paintings and the selected theoretical texts are complemented with audiovisual resources, through the projection of images, film fragments, videos, or interviews. The aim is to stimulate critical thinking and the ability to debate, encouraging students to formulate and articulate their own interpretations and analyses, which happens through the organization of debates and the scheduling of individual presentations in which each student is responsible for researching and presenting previously agreed content.
