This program is designed
to allow students to combine the study of art history and visual culture
with the study of techniques for creating works in the visual arts. Students
will examine art in the Americas with a focus on the works of artists in
the United States and Mexico. We will explore the ways art has been shaped
by issues of cultural identity, with particular attention to the dynamics
that exist between people in indigenous nations and settler states. We will
examine patterns of cultural interchange. We will also explore the mixing
of cultures that result from immigration and intercultural encounters, and
their effects on the development of certain American aesthetics. This exploration
will include an analysis of colonialism and its impact on cultural production.
Students will be expected to create individual and collaborative works
of art that grow out of personal identity and theories developed as part
of this program.
Students will be required to design individual and collaborative mixed
media, installation and/or performance work that examines their location
within their culture. They will also be asked to work with other students
to explore cultural interchange as part of a collaborative art project.
Students will also be required to write three, six and twelve page papers
and to keep an intellectual journal in which they write about the readings
and films in preparation for seminar. During the third week of Fall
quarter, students will take a field trip to the Makah Nation in Neah Bay,
WA.
In Winter Quarter, students have the opportunity to travel for six weeks
in Mexico where they will visit museums, galleries and architectural sites.
There they will be able to discuss the themes of the program with established
Mexican artists and their students in various universities and art schools.
Students will also have the chance to immerse themselves in various facets
of Mexican culture, including examining the role played by indigenous cultures
within Mexico. Students wishing to go to Mexico must pay a $150 deposit
by 5 December 2003. The trip is dependent on having a minimum of 15 students
signed up to travel.
Credit will be awarded to students completing the assigned work in American
Art History, Indigenous art history, Mexican art history, mixed media,
installation and performance art, cultural studies and art criticism.
