Art and the Politics of Location (PS MG)
Mittwoch, 04.12.2024
This course emphasizes the critical role of locality and place in understanding art and its political implications. We will explore modern and contemporary art from this perspective, with a focus on the ways in which geographic and other spatial contexts shape artistic production, but also circulation and reception. Examining a diverse range of art practices, we will analyze how artists negotiate their positioning within artworld power structures to challenge dominant narratives, notions of space and place, transcend borders and more. The course will also address critical concepts and binary frameworks, such as the center, periphery, urban, rural, local, global, transnational spaces, borderlands, ecological and environmental landscapes. The aim is to develop a clear understanding of art and art history’s enduring interest in place, location and geography. Active and prepared participation is an essential part of this course. Please note that a maximum of two absences are allowed.
