Course Description

Summary

This interdisciplinary class looks at the relationship between the visual arts, performance and dance. In particular, we will focus on the influence of collage across disciplines by finding common methods and themes, such as juxtaposition, chance and appropriation. We will trace the history of collage in the visual arts and then investigate its impact on other fields, including film, music, literature and dance. Lectures and readings will expose students to a wide range of modern and contemporary art forms. Students will make short creative exercises throughout the semester culminating in a final workbook, which will be printed using an online publishing service.
