Contemporary Art In a Global Society: Classic and Contemporary Art in China
Chinese Art and Civilization
Conducted in English
In this course, students develop, explore, and heighten their technical, cultural, and aesthetic awareness of ceramics in a global context. Our study at Sichuan University in Chengdu and the Pottery Workshop in Jingdezhen gives students a great opportunity to learn and interact with resident artists and factory artisans. Students will conclude their journey by visiting galleries, museums, art districts, cultural and historical sites in China’s capital city of Beijing.
This class has three components:
1- Through reading, discussion, and presentation, students will develop a working vocabulary in ceramic work, its visual and conceptual elements as well as historical and cultural context.
2- Hands-on experience in exploring technical processes, development of ideas, abstract thinking, aesthetic appreciation, and gaining an understanding of traditional and contemporary ceramics arts. Finally, students will build on the skills necessary to look critically at their own work and the work of others.
3- Active participation, interest and curiosity in art and culture, and a creative self-motivated open mind.
