SART 17.12 Art Practices Across Media
This course examines strategies used by artists who work across a range of media. We will start with a critical inquiry into theoretical and practical methods: how do ideas determine the choice of material and the shape they take? Further explorations will address the socio-political dimension of art-making and how it enables interventions and interruptions of the historical, cultural, and individual sphere. In the spirit of its subject, this class will ask students to utilize multiple media with the goal of visualizing the relation between material and concept.
