Content
During the academic year 2016-2017, students will be requested to create a collection of artifacts inspired by topics that relate the history of the great discoveries to fundamental human rights. Each object will represent a concept related to these two main perspectives. Students will create their work on a porcelain plate painted with special oxides. The total number of plates that the students will produce will constitute a collection. By doing so, students are expected to become creators and will also be "mediators/ assistants/ambassadors" of the project led by Françoise Schein. Specifically they will create hundred plates under the guidance of the artist, then they will instruct other participants, residents of Louvain-la-Neuve (possibly disadvantaged people via the CPAS) as well as students in architecture from Saint-Gilles (LOCI Saint-Gilles). The latter will produce the same work as their fellows from Louvain-la-Neuve. They will work in turn with participants from the Brussels municipality (possibly the CPAS and Saint-Gilles Restos du c'ur) and produce another hundred plates.
At the end of the project, a banquet will be organized on one of two campuses with exhibition of the works created during the year.

Evaluation methods
The assessment of this course involves:
1) The presence and regular and active participation of students in all sessions and activities led by the resident artist Françoise Schein during her workshop in Louvain -la- Neuve (Ateliers d'art de la Baraque).
2) The creative process of an artistic work as part of an exhibition in Louvain-la-Neuve and Brussels based on the artist's teaching and supervision. Students will have to produce a written and documented essay in which they will present and discuss the realization of their work, its design and the different stages of realization.
