ART 350 - Contemporary Art Writing
Credits: 4
A study of modern and contemporary art through the lens of art writing. This course builds the research-based skills and visual literacy necessary for art writing–a rigorous but creative process of knowledge production. Art writers mobilize art in the service of broader cultural conversations to address social and political challenges, from race and gender equity to climate change. Students read and practice discipline-specific writing, and they also focus on interdisciplinary authors who posit art as a model of political resistance. Along with foundational writing skills, this course promotes proficiency in the visual and written language of contemporary art.
Prerequisite: ART 115 or ART 250 or ART 252 . An intermediate or advanced studio course may be considered as an equivalent prerequisite, with permission of instructor.
Distribution Requirements: HE, PD.
