Queer Critque Potluck

Open to Art School only. This course may be open
to students at other year levels, and in other
Schools, by Permission of Instructor.
Critique - Critique courses within the
Photography and Media program center around
critique of student work, to offer students
critical reception to their projects, while
cultivating tools for critical dialogue among the
class at large, including vocabulary,
methodology, looking and listening skills, as
well as historical context for the role of
critique in art, documentary, public discourse
and social organization.

This interdisciplinary critique will employ queer
theory to discuss each student's work. Queering
subjects through centers and peripheries of fluid
and political identities. Each student will
present their work as the subject of one class
critique. Each class will include a dinner break
for a changing potluck of shared meals. Sharing
and providing meals for one another will extend
the critical conversation beyond the direct
interrogations of the art object to engaging the
ideas over kitchen tasks and the bounty of our
culinary creations. Eating, cooking and
critiquing should touch upon the content, theory
and construction of community within a queer
discourse.
