FAA 8088 - Graduate Seminar

Institution:

University of Cincinnati-Main Campus

Subject:

Description:

In this course students will study an art-related topic which will differ each quarter, depending on the faculty teaching the course. Topics for the course might include but would not be limited to: investigation of the artists in a chosen international survey show, spectatorship in film, video, and contemporary visuality, the use of sound/music/noise in artwork, etc. Through its in-depth investigation of specific topics related to contemporary art practice, the course intends to address the ongoing need for young artists to be aware of current ideas that inform the practice of contemporary art. At all times students will be expected to develop links between the material studied in this seminar with their own studio practice as they prepare for their verbal presentation for first year Candidacy Review and in the writing of their final year Thesis. This course, as is the case with all fine art seminar courses, is designed to ensure that graduate students acquire the ability to analyze challenging art concepts and to write and speak cogently about the relationship of such ideas to contemporary fine art practice.
