Course Description
In this course students analyse philosophical theory and its relationship to art production. Context and Culture also develops and extends the individuals art practice through developing a range of research techniques and applying research directly to practice. Students enter into a theoretical discourse with their developing art practice with the intention of enriching and broadening the work. Students view a range of international and national art practice with an emphasis on viewing art works directly, when possible, and utilising a range of research tools (i.e., internet, periodicals) to view other works. Students document their research, and the application of that research in their practice, their exhibition report and in their visual journal.
