ARH 399: Exhibiting Art and Design in London
This course investigates the central issues and practical concerns surrounding art and design curation, with a special emphasis on contemporary exhibition practices in London, a global cultural center. It includes a three-week on-site component combined with pre- and onsite work, through which students will be exposed to a rich array of art and design venues and to scholarship on museums (as spaces of ritual, debate, interpretation, preservation, and omission; as contact zones, training grounds, centers of power, and mirrors of society at large).
