Material covered in trimester one embraced broad issues and directions related to cultural theory and practice. This unit takes a more specific view through the detailed study of significant practitioners who have worked across contemporary issues. Australian artists such as, Imants Tillers and Gordon Bennett who have exemplified post-modern strategies such as appropriation, commodification, critiques of authorship and originality and re-presentations of history will be analysed. Students will be expected to make further personal investigations through reading and studio development which will culminate in a series of separate images or unified thematic installation.Assessment -- Course Website
