This course is designed to offer students an understanding of performance and time-based processes within the field of visual art. Throughout the course, students will be introduced to the cultural discourse that surrounds performance, while gaining exposure to contemporary practices that employ durational processes. In-class studio exercises, assignments, presentations, readings, and lectures will facilitate a critical investigation into performance. Visits to exhibitions/performances and presentations by guest speakers will aim to further expand students' relationship to contemporary local practice and the surrounding art community. Throughout the course students will exercise their skills in critical thinking, conceptual process, and creative experimentation to realize a series of projects that explore the body, site, and duration of performance. If students have taken a previous FINA 2195 Special Topics course with similar content, they will not get credit for this course.
Registration in this course is restricted to students admitted to the Diploma in Fine Arts.
