Work in Context

Open to Art, Photography & Media and Art &
Technology programs.
Artworks are understood within the terms of the
histories and traditions of the various media in
play, and also as they intersect with the larger
context of contemporary culture. In presenting
work for critique, students will provide the class
with a point of reference from outside their
studio - a piece of writing, or some music, art,
film, video, advertising, news. The class will
have a week to consider this frame, and an excerpt
will be re-presented with the work to initiate
discussion. There will be two presentations each
week.
