Inhalte	Within this excursion, we will visit the City of Prague (World Heritage Site), our partner university, Academy of Fine Arts (AVU) and the Biennale “We Are All Emotional” (https://matterof.art/). We will explore the local, but internationally active art scene and meet with cultural agents who are engaging audiences that transcend geographic and socioeconomic barriers and who developed the art scene into the current relevance for the international art scene. Starting with the modern history of Prague we will visit important architecture spots and art in public projects to learn about the influence of modernism, cubism, brutalism to contemporary architecture. Furthermore, visits to various art institutions, private foundations, galleries and artists and spaces are planned. We will also meet the students from AVU and will have a joint activity together.

Bemerkung	Information on the organisation of excursions will be announced by the lecturers at the beginning of the semester. Please note: For excursions abroad, generally only the overnight stay will be organized and financed by the degree programme. Travel costs must be covered by the students themselves. If the overnight costs are much higher than the travel costs, students must contribute to the costs for the overnight stay. In the event of non-participation (no show) or cancellation, the student will be invoiced for the costs incurred for the study programme. We recommend that students take out private cancellation insurance for excursions so that any costs (due to illness) are covered by the insurance.
