Theoretical Issues in Contemporary Art
Examines recent theoretical interventions in the formulation of critical practice in the field of the visual arts. Working from the premise that ‘art’ and theory are social constructions and therefore, are historically specific practices, this course addresses the intersection between theory and practice at particular moments in time, taking into consideration the implicit and explicit references of artists, critics, historians and contemporary cultural theorists. Course credit exclusion: GS/ARTH 5160 3.00.
