While in the first and second years the painting courses consist primarily of instruction by the teaching staff, from the third year the program is designed to help each student grow and attain creative independence in his or her own way.<\/p>\r\n                <\/section>\r\n                <section>\r\n                  <div class=\"heading\">\r\n                    <h3 class=\"heading__medium\">Painting - A Course<\/h3>\r\n                  <\/div>\r\n                  <p>Up to their second year, students are assigned issues and motifs in art history and painting as stimuli for their work; however, in the A course from the third year onward, they begin to develop a more individual subjectivity. Students search for motifs, assemble their own images, and learn ways to express themselves via a process of trial and error. In this course, they delve deeply into their own identities, explore the nature of painting in different modes of expression, not only representational, and build the foundations for expressing themselves as individuals.<\/p>\r\n                <\/section>\r\n                <section>\r\n                  <div class=\"heading\">\r\n                    <h3 class=\"heading__medium\">Painting - B Course<\/h3>\r\n                  <\/div>\r\n                  <p>Painting has undergone numerous metamorphoses as the world has changed, emerging in many different forms over time. In the B course, students explore this process, focusing on why people have transformed painting in so many ways?in other words on the drive to create new art forms?and start by immersing themselves in this dynamism. Students take a position that objectifies history and confronts it in order to create new kinds of value. They may be swayed by their existing values, find themselves unable to touch the canvas, or need to divorce themselves from painting in order to express painting. The aim is to open up new creative horizons by engaging in a repeated process of trial and error, and building on each act of expression.<\/p>\r\n                <\/section>\r\n                <section>\r\n                  <div class=\"heading\">\r\n                    <h3 class=\"heading__medium\">Fourth year<\/h3>\r\n                  <\/div>\r\n                  <p>Working on graduation projects encourages close communication between tutors and students, and among students in the classroom situation.
