ART 4068 The Installation of Public and Performance Art
This course is designed for art majors with an interest in Installation Art, Performance Art, and Public Art. Students will propose four in-depth projects that will be developed and executed over the course of the semester. Each project will be researched with an aesthetic application as well as an academic application. Each proposal will be written and handed in with both written and aesthetic support materials. Students will learn to work on site. They will assemble site-specific installation, construct public works on location and learn to arrange and perform aesthetic recital. We will also view artist films and artist videos. Students will be required to travel to New York City on two weekends during the semester. Three required hours of lab time per week.
