Overall Educational Objective

To survey and understand artistic reflections on current refugee and migrant crises and exploring the relationship between art and politics through different theories and various artistic practices.

Course Description

The course surveys artistic reflections on the theme of refugee and current migrant crisis. We will examine how aesthetic regimes envision, imagine and create the political via migrant politics and we will look closely at how artistic practices and migrants’ representations in the media express and trigger ethical humanistic concerns as well as alternative subjectivity formations for the art audience. We will explore theoretical approaches to work on the mutual relationship between art and politics, representation and emancipatory thinking across various artistic practices such as cinema, plastic arts, photography and mixed media installations in public performances, local and international exhibitions, online art blogs.

ardab@mef.edu.tr Absences are permitted only in cases of sickness or real emergencies, for which you must provide written notification. You are allowed 2 undocumented absences throughout the semester without any penalty. If you attend all class sessions (or do not miss more than 2 sessions), you will automatically earn 10%. Active participation and keeping up with the readings are required. Students are assumed to be familiar with the university's regulations concerning academic honesty. The Oxford Dictionary defines the lack of academic honesty as plagiarism which is ‘to take and use as one's own the thoughts, writings, or inventions of another’. All of the following are considered plagiarism: turning in someone else's work as your own; copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit; failing to put a quotation in quotation marks; giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation; changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit; and copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not. Please note that plagiarism is considered as an act of ‘fraud’ in most countries and may lead to various punitive/preventive measures including, in severe cases, expulsion. Most cases of plagiarism can be avoided, however, by citing sources. Simply acknowledging that certain material has been borrowed, and providing your audience with the information necessary to find that source, is usually enough to prevent plagiarism. Academic dishonesty and plagiarism: YÖK Disciplinary Regulation.
