ART 425H - Honors Writing By & About Artists (3)

How do those who practice artmaking engage in the practice of writing about their own and others artwork? What is entailed in shifting one’s point of view to carry out these different practices? Students in this seminar grapple with these questions on a practical level by reading published works by artists and by carrying out a range of weekly writing exercises. On a more philosophical level, the goal of the course is to become so comfortable with writing about art that to do so becomes more of a matter of desire than duress. This is an honors course.
