Course detail
FaVU-KRIT1Acad. year: 2019/2020
The seminar is focused on topics and methods of the critical theory. The texts for study represent selected theories of the 19th and the first half of the 20th century, sharing their focus on critical analysis of society (Marxism, Frankfurt School, Gramsci). The list of the topics includes such headings as ideology, technical rationality, commodity fetishism, the culture industry and so on. The course of the seminar derives from the introduction of a general framework and continues through the interpretation of particular problems up to the realization of a practical outcome. The central role in the working process of the seminar will be played by the discussion on reading materials, during which students will practice in critical thinking and explore possible application of the theoretical constructs in current conditions. The intervention of the teacher will be reduced to a commentary providing the students with a basic orientation in methods and historical contexts of the studied theories. In the next step the topic in question will be elaborated as a draft for an artistic or design project. The students will produce approximately five such drafts during the course of the semester and will consult them with the teacher and the other participant of the course. At the end of the semester one of these drafts will be selected for realization. In the best scenario the outcome of the seminar will be an exhibition of the artworks produced in this way.
