Description
This course aims to explore Visual Art Practices of the Modern and the Contemporary Period. We are going to start our exploration with the movement of Impressionism in France and finish in the ever-changing global World Wide Web. We will analyze artistic methodologies, technologies and their impact upon artistic creation. The course focuses on exposing the dynamic interplay between visual research, politics, intellectual theories, and societal changes. The range of media that is covered is very wide: photography, performance, conceptual proposals, installation art, film, video, digital practices and appropriations from mass culture alongside painting and sculpture. The course is based on practical assignments, field trips and lectures.
