Constellation Keynote - Theo Humphries
The document discusses a lecture on understanding critical practices in art and design. The lecture aims to explore critical practice as a way to identify and challenge assumptions in order to evolve art/design and enrich experiences. It will consider specific works and how a more nuanced understanding of criticality can emerge. There will likely be more questions than answers as the goal is to get the audience to question their understanding rather than provide definitive answers.
Constellation Keynote - Dr Jonathan Clarkson
This document discusses techniques of post-perspective art including: 1) The multiplication of views and viewpoints using examples from artists like Clive Head and Franz Ackermann; 2) Adopting a non-human viewpoint shown in works by Therese Oulton and Andreas Gefeller; 3) Doubling and repetition exemplified by Gerhard Richter and Vija Celmins; and 4) Historical perspectives or perspectives on perspective seen in the portraits of Hiroshi Sugimoto that reference earlier works like Rembrandt's self-portrait.
Constellation Keynote - Dr Mahnaz Shah
This document discusses the concepts of the literal and phenomenal in art and design. It provides definitions of literal as true to fact without exaggeration, and phenomenal relating to the philosophical study of subjective experience. The document explores how these concepts connect to art and design through changing perceptions and narratives, and references philosophers like Kant, Husserl, Arnheim and Heidegger. It examines how the literal and phenomenal may interconnect and influence each other through examples like visual art and poetry.
Constellation Keynote - Dr Ashley Morgan
This document explores the shift from representations of nerds to geeks in popular culture and the implications for masculinity. It discusses how masculinity was traditionally embodied through physical strength and confidence but is now also represented through expertise in science and technology. Popular culture examples like Die Hard and The Big Bang Theory show how male power and identity have shifted from the physical body to the mind through an emphasis on technical skills. This reflects the growing cultural significance of science, technology, and the digital world.
Handling History - Theo Humphries
The document discusses various techniques for handling history, 'isms', and texts including recognizing that all histories are constructed narratives, examining different artistic movements through representative artworks, and conducting close readings of texts through techniques like identifying unfamiliar words, highlighting keywords, paraphrasing sentences, and summarizing the overall meaning in one sentence.
Ways ofseeeing
Berger draws upon Magritte's painting The Key to Dreams to make a point about the relationship between words and images. He says that there is always a gap between them, and that how we see things is affected by what we know or have seen. As an example, he notes that in the Middle Ages when people believed in the physical existence of hell, the sight of fire must have meant something different than it does today. Berger is highlighting how our interpretations of visual images depend on social and historical context, and are shaped by "learnt assumptions".
Reading & Analysis Lecture
This document provides guidance on analyzing critical texts by outlining the key elements to examine, including the overall argument, language used, and evaluating claims. It discusses analyzing Clement Greenberg's 1952 review of Jackson Pollock by identifying Greenberg's argument, evidence presented, and persuasive language. Students are then tasked to read and analyze another writing on Pollock in small groups, considering the author's position and strengths of the argument and evidence.
