Online Course HOW DO WE TALK ABOUT ART? : a seminar on the crit by Dagmara Genda

“In this four-part course, participants will learn about and employ different feedback techniques, past and present, to talk about their own work, as well as that of other artists. Everyone will have the opportunity to present completed or in-process work for peer review.

The art critique forms an integral part of not only art education, but a variety of professional or semi-professional arts programs, of which artist residencies are one. However, the function of a critique is misty at best. There is no exhaustive history of the so-called „art crit,“ nor is there a particular methodology to how it should be conducted. Despite the fact that art has diversified into many sub-classifications—performance, conceptual, activist, archival, to name a few—and the evaluation of quality has been relativized by the introduction of new mediums and non-European traditions, the crit still forms the backbone of many art academies.
 
The artist’s crit is increasingly coming under scrutiny, prompting more questions than answers: What criteria are being used and how obvious are these criteria? How are power relations in crits negotiated? Is it possible to maintain an atmosphere of experimental transgression and keep participants safe? How does the language of the crit differ from art criticism? What relationship does language have to art? These questions will be explored through a series of lectures and group critiques, both live and through an online forum.” (Text by courtesy of Dagmara Genda)
