Overview

In contemporary art, the clear-cut boundaries between traditional disciplines drawing, painting, printing, photography, and sculpture have disappeared. Unconventional materials, such as recycling and the creative use of industrial products and by-products, have become common in contemporary art practice.
The characteristic imprint of the individual artist has also been questioned by the use of ready-mades and all practices related to conceptual art. Performance and relational art have similarly transformed the relationship with the public, invited to participate more actively. Throughout this course, students will combine different media to explore the wide spectrum of contemporary art practices, espescially those related to installation art.
Also sound installations and video installations can be explored. Site-specific installations may also be visited.
