GRAD784 Seminar II 2cr

The second summer seminar brings students back together to examine their discoveries from the year and to begin to map out a trajectory leading toward the thesis work in this once-weekly course. Group dialogue, collaborative projects, and individual and group critique continue as key components of the course structure. Students engage in an in-depth exploration of a diverse range of voices and lenses, exploring cultural theory, curatorial critique, and artists’ writings and interviews. The seminar’s focus on critical thinking helps students situate their work in contemporary practice and forge connections between new concepts and tactics. Seminars are grounded in empathy and an awareness of the diversity of personal and social realities.
