| SCIN 4B08 Parody and Satire: Forms of Resistance in Contemporary Art 0.50 Credit(s) Studio |
|
| Prerequisite: All required 200 and 300-level courses for this major area of study and 3.0 credits in Liberal Studies. |
|
| This studio/seminar course examines how sculpture, installation and performance-based artists’ can use humour - parody, satire and the absurd - as forms of resistance capable of confronting the status quo and challenging its assumptions. Such assumptions invariably invite response and students will explore how they can use these tools as a mode of production, grounding their deployment in the professional practices required to ensure their ability to succeed. The course will include directed seminar discussion and studio projects designed to test the student’s grasp of both the risks and the power in their use of such forms. |

| Notes: Priority in registration is given to Sculpture/Installation Majors. |
