Synopsis:

Art Outside Institutions? Site-specific art, installation, land-art, sculpture and environmental art since 1960s till present day.

The focus of the course is development of visual and plastic arts after the conceptual turn and resulting new forms and content of art work, as well as new media and their impact on visual arts and architecture.

The course is divided into two blocks: 1.– 6.: The first block is aimed at the significance of cultural institutions for the origins of fine art and architecture and for the reproduction of cultural capital. It also deals with exhibition strategies of museums and galleries (particularly in the context of architecture). 7. – 13.: Artistic expressions, that often have stepped out of the institutionalised art world from the 1960s up to present, will be presented within the framework of the second block. Attention will be paid primarily to Euro-American and Czechoslovak examples of site-specific, land-art, sculpture and spatial creation.
