Description
This seminar course engages with critical theories and practices in contemporary art, public space and place. It investigates how people make meaningful connections with communities and places through art. This exploration is grounded in night festivals/exhibitions such as Nuit Blanche (Toronto, Paris, Sydney) and large-scale public art installations in major cities which have been pushing the boundaries of public and private spaces. This course reflects on key concepts in critical race theory, feminist, anti-oppressive and collaborative methodologies.
