ADFA-S311 Contemporary Trends & Practices
Moves art theory into the studio and the studio out into the world. Students will look at the most significant artists and movements of the past 50 years while examining their social, cultural and political context. Canonized contemporary art categories (postmodernism, appropriation, anti-art and performance art are some examples) are assigned as group projects. Movements, strategy or style of art making is discussed as an expressive problem-solving experience, blurring the lines between media. This course conflates contemporary art history with contemporary art practices.
