PAINTING (Drawing and Composition)
2.1 The purpose of the exam from "Painting" subject is to assess the applicant's abilities of volumetric space design and reproduction, creative, performance techniques, and envisages examination requirements for the performance of drawing tasks.
The "Painting" exam is conducted in two stages:
1st Stage - "Drawing"
073101.00.6 “Architecture” specialty applicants draw plaster heads.

The selection of plaster heads is implemented by lot.
The seats of the applicants, according to the numbered easels, are selected by lot.
8 hours are given for the fulfillment of the task (240 minutes + 60 minutes break + 240 minutes).
The task is performed
on A2 size drawing paper (Whatman) with graphite black pencils of different hardness.
2nd Stage - "Composition"
The task is performed
on A3 size drawing paper (Whatman) with graphite black pencils of different hardness.
4 hours are given for the fulfillment of the composition task (240 minutes).
One object from each group, that include three objects according to Appendix 1, is chosen by lot out of the twelve objects, which according to the features are included in the following 4 groups:
1st group: |
a) cube |
b) quadrangular pyramid |
c) hexagonal prism |
|
՝ 2nd group: |
a) sphere |
b) cone |
c) cylinder |
3rd group: |
a) circle |
b) triangular ruler |
c) cuboid |
4th group: |
a) torus |
b) tube |
c) tile |
With those objects they create the design of their own composition. It is allowed to use drawing tools for the work.
It is mandatory to use all the objects selected by lot at least once in the task, as well as maintain the shape, symmetry and integrity of the objects. Objects can be projected linearly, tonally and transparently․ In case of the absence of any of the 4 objects, the work will not be examined.
The average of the grades received by the applicants of the Faculty of Architecture in the two stages of "Composition" and "Drawing" is calculated, (in case of receiving a negative grade from either “Composition” or “Drawing”, the applicant is left out from the admission competition), as a result a general grade is assigned to the applicant for "Painting".
8.0 or higher points are considered positive (according to RA Government Decision N 469-Ն of April 1, 2021). Assessment points are given preserving the decimal part.

1.1 The examination of the subject "Sketch drawing" is aimed at testing the applicants' ability to perform graphic works, and the level of volumetric spatial perception and portrayal. Exam tickets include two sections: projective drawing and geometric construction problems.
1.2 The tasks and seats of the applicants are selected by lot. The duration of the exam is 4 hours (240 minutes). The task is performed on A2 size drawing paper.
1.3 Exam tickets include the following two tasks:
1.3.1 Two projections of the body with extractions and cuts are given. It is required to build its third projection and axonometry, giving all the necessary cuts.
1.3.2 Build the proposed flat circle, which includes coupling problems.
8.0 or higher points are considered positive (according to RA Government Decision N 469 of April 1, 2021). Assessment points are given preserving the decimal part.
