Studio-oriented course brings artists into a practical workshop, tutorial, and critique environment. From the flaneur of Paris in the late 19th century through European and American Conceptual Art interventions of the 1960-70s to contemporary Boston, a trajectory of theory and practice utilizes the city as subject, material, workspace, and presentation forum. Workshops by visiting artists focus on interventions into the city. Read and discuss selected texts on contemporary art and urban theory. Tutorials introduce digital imaging and remote file sharing. Group projects will entail collecting, editing, and presenting images, sound files, and text. The city will be used as a workspace and presentation forum for public projects.
