Hi Everyone,
I’ll be teaching two new courses next year. Both are crosslisted with Liberal Arts (formerly GBLS, now called LART) and Visual Arts. I hope some of you will be able to take these course. They will be interesting!
VISA / LART 3V96
Imitation in Art and Culture
(also offered as STAC 3V96)
Imitation in Western visual art and culture from Plato to postmodernism with stops in the Renaissance and the modern period.
Seminar, 3 hours per week: FALL TERM
We will consider important works of art, texts and ideas. The course will be in seminar format, so discussion will be a significant part of the class.
LART / GBLS 3V97
Appropriation in Art and Culture
(also offered as STAC 3V97)
Authorship and appropriation in visual and literary culture. Topics include the historical development of the notions of the artist; copyright and plagiarism; quotation, parody and intertextuality; the role of found objects, collage and montage; and the significance of digital technologies. Examination of both historical and contemporary examples from a wide.
range of media.
Seminar, 3 hours per week: WINTER TERM
Plenty of interesting guest lectures, and lots of discussion of works of art, images, texts…I’ll talk about my own research on photography and appropriation too.
– Linda
