Course/Module description:
This course deals with the strong link between the aesthetic, emotional, and cultural value attributed to the arts (art as a value), and the economic, social and political conditions for their production, dissemination, and consumption (the value of art). In particular, we will focus on concurrent trends of centralization and democratization for the production, dissemination, and consumption of arts during the 20th century, as well as in contemporary Jerusalem.
Course/Module aims:
To encourage critical thinking towards the relationship between the ideal (aesthetics) and the reality (practices and reception) of the art world; to familiarize students with fundamental concepts and issues in modern and postmodern thought regarding the arts; to promote a comparative approach in thinking about different artistic media; to make students aware of of the relationships between the theoretical, historical, economic, institutional, experiential, and interpretative aspects of the artworld.
Learning outcomes - On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
to understand intermediate-level texts in academic fields that study the arts, to characterize key concepts in art criticism and how they relate to each other; to distinguish between the (above-listed) aspects comprising the contexts in which works of art appear and function, across historical periods and artistic media; to approach with curiosity and better understanding arts previously considered less accessible, and to harness their intellectual capacities as means for enhancing their experience and appreciation of these art forms.
