Description
The course content will provide an open forum for graduate students, together with their peers and faculty, to discuss and critique each other's works in progress as well as after completion. These in-depth critiques are aimed to have students understand and reflect each other's artistic approach, ideas presented in their work, overal methodology, material and spatial realization and contemporary cultural context. The aim of the Group Critique sessions is to provide a forum for productive and respectful engagement of ideas. Students are encouraged to work toward defining a series of philosophical positions as they reflect upon their own work and that of their peers. To support this process the course instructor will introduce strategies for catalyzing interaction among students.
