Institution:

Metropolitan State University of Denver

Subject:

Description:

3 (2 + 2) Prerequisite: ARTH 1700 or ENG 2860 This course examines connections between cinema and visual art throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. Focus is put on experimental and avant-garde approaches and on films made by artists in other media; however, the construction of such divisions between commercial and experimental cinema is treated critically. Films are considered in their historical contexts and in light of critical writings from the period. Students should be prepared for extensive reading and writing as well as in-class discussions. Class time includes lab hours during which various films will be screened and analyzed.
