| Description (ECIAD) | This fourth year three credit course gives
students an in depth experience with curatorial
projects. Building on the third year SOCS 310
Studies in Curatorial Practices, students develop
their knowledge with a focus on contemporary
examples, case studies and the key components
necessary for organizing an exhibition. In this
course students will investigate a specific topic
or issue relevant to a variety of practices and
critical concerns related to curatorial projects.
They will develop writing projects directly
related to proposing and installing an exhibition
with the potential to realize a project. The
emphasis will be upon the development and
articulation of critical and speculative thinking
that will encourage personal research and prepare
students for further study or practice whether
through future curatorial studies, self-curating
or curating in relation to one's own practice and
curatorial projects with one's peers. Potential
assignments and outcomes may include an
exhibition plan, curatorial proposals, grant
proposal writing, and criteria for curating a
space or a virtual exhibition.
Each section of this course runs with a different topic. See here. |
