This studio course will consider painting's relationship to space, both physical and discursive as the central field of research. How might painting relate to architecture and the built environment surrounding the painting? In what ways do such framing contexts imbue painting with cultural value and meaning? Conversely, we might ask how architectural representation and production of space might have demonstrated its symbiotic relations to effects of painting as well as drawing. By considering various historical moments where the space of painting, both symbolic and literal became grounds for critique of cultural and social values, we'll seek to gain a new understanding of what the stakes are in painting.
