Aanbieding 2 met studiegidsnummer 4001354FER voor alle studenten in het 2e semester met een gespecialiseerd master niveau.
This course examines the tense relationship between contemporary art and the public sphere. Its focus is on critical and participatory art practices that engage in a continuous dialogue with the latest developments in technology, politics and knowledge production. The discussed themes include: ecological networks, collaboration and participation, ethnographic turn in art, ethnographic museum versus art museum, conservation and restauration of art. While prioritizing the perspective of the most recent debates, the course also looks back at the historical forms of institutional critique, collective authorship, and artistic engagement. During the lectures and discussion moments, our attention will regularly shift between artistic strategies and formats (installation and performance art, processual practices, lecture performances), socio-political debates (migration, climate, discrimination, vulnerability) and theory (both within art and art history).
The aim is to broaden the students’ theoretical and art historical knowledge so that they are able to situate the constantly evolving art practices in an interdisciplinary, network-oriented framework and to examine them accordingly.
Suggestions for further reading will be provided during the lectures.
