GART 1B63 Site & Intervention: Sculpture and Installation 0.50 Credit(s) Studio |
|
Prerequisite: Students must have completed a minimum of 1.0 credit of First-year studio curriculum. |
|
Site & Intervention challenges traditional notions of how space can have an impact on artwork by intervening on public and other spaces. Throughout history pedestals, frames, galleries and museums have imposed structures for viewing art. The notions of site and intervention have challenged these structures by exploring how the the use of place and situation by artists can expand the reach of art, its venues, and the role of the viewer. This studio course will address questions of context in contemporary sculpture and installation-based practices through a combination of projects and in-class discussions on assigned readings and presentations. The course aims to explore the breadth of possibilities available to sculptural practitioners when consideration of site/location is made a formative component of the work. |
