Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
In the reading course, we will not only read art history texts but also practice the "reading" artworks, images, and objects. Small writing tasks – postings on Moodle – are therefore part of the assessment. The selected texts will partly be canonical methodological texts of art history and partly – like Roland Barthes' Mythologies – come from other contexts. The focus is less on gaining an overview of a set of established methods and more on understanding what "method" actually means and how divergent methods can still be useful and necessary for the exploration and interpretation of the same subject. What distinguishes artworks as objects of research that their examination and questioning require such divergent methods? How are the ontological nature of the object and the methodological approach connected?
Assessment and permitted materials
Active participation in the form of oral and written contributions is evaluated. In the present course: reading (the expected reading program is already on moodle); three short writing tasks - including reading the text results of the other participants; active participation.
