ART 6811

Paris Art Studio

This course will explore the experience of modern life in the city as a source for art making. Projects will encourage students to encounter the dense and varied space and time of Paris toward a better understanding of the part that this city has played in the shaping of modern and post modern sensibilities. We will draw upon a range of avant-garde strategies that have imagined and conceptualized Paris by movement through city spaces and close observation of the ordinary and extraordinary aspects of everyday life.
