Overall Educational Objective | To learn to understand the history and theory of art during 19th & 20th Century. | ||||||
Course Description | In a conversation between Deleuze and Foucault about Intellectuals and Power, M. Foucault’s description about Theory and Practice is ‘’...theory does not express, translate, or serve to apply practice: it is practice.’’ According to G. Deleuze, ‘‘Practice is a set of relays from one theoretical point to another, and theory is a relay from one practice to another. No theory can develop without eventually encountering a wall, and practice is necessary for piercing this wall.’’ To understand the phenomenons of modern and postmodern eras, the main source is an anthology about Art in 20th century, ART in Theory 1900-2000 An Anthology of Changing Ideas, Edited by Charles Harrison & Paul Wood. In this case, keywords for the course are Classicism, Modernity, Cubism, Dada, Construction, Realism, Avant-Garde, Dogma 95, Pop Art, Minimalism, Suprematism, Deconstruction, Postmodern, Modern and Futurism. |
Course Learning Outcomes and CompetencesUpon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:1) appreciate relation between art and architecture; 2) understand art movements during 20th century; 3) understand movements in architecture during 20th century; 4) comprehend history of art and architecture; 5) recognize contemporary art movements that are related to architecture; 6) comprehend contemporary art, history of art and architecture; 7) discuss art theories in architectural practice. |
