ART 268 - The Activation of Art, 1968 - now

Semester Offered: Spring
1 unit(s)
(Same as MEDS 268 ) This course studies the visual arts of the last thirty years, here and abroad, together with the collective and philosophical discussions that emerged and motivated them. The traditional fine arts as well as the new media, performance, film architecture and installation are included. Still and moving images, which come with new theatres of action, experiment and intellectual quest, are studied as they interact with the historical forces still shaping our time into time zones, world pictures, narratives and futures. Weekly screenings supplement the lectures. Ms. Nesbit.

Prerequisite: ART 105 -ART 106 .

Two 75-minute periods and one weekly screening.
