The Monumental Public Sculpture course contributes to strengthening the skills acquired in the three-year period of Sculpture (or Painting) and allows the student to define their artistic language. During the specialist two-year period, the student deals with sculpture both from a cultural and operational point of view: the contextualization in the contemporary of this creative gesture requires particular attention to the use of different materials and techniques and to a design phase that can express itself both through traditional drawing and using 3D design techniques.
