ART 553 LABORATORY

PAINTING / PRINTMAKING, Art 553 01, LABoratory

This course investigates the pictorial devices, conceptual positions, tropes, pedagogies, and contexts surrounding the practice of painting in America from the mid-1950s to the present. Paintings are viewed and discussed in relation to other current practices, as well as in terms of the ambient cultural/social environment. A wide variety of contemporaneous source material is read, screened, and discussed. Assigned projects and presentations are premised upon the specific issues suggested by the works under discussion. Students are required to read assigned short texts weekly and screen film and video materials on a regular basis. Rochelle Feinstein
