1 FAH 04 INTRODUCTION TO THE ARTS OF AFRICA Fall 2012 / Monday & Wednesday / 1:30 2:45 Professor Peter Probst
2 INTRODUCTION TO THE ARTS OF AFRICA Department of Art and Art History FAH 0004 Fall 2012 This is an introduction to the study of the arts of various cultures and time periods in Africa ranging from ancient ceramics to contemporary painting and installations. It is intended to be provide some insight into the great diversity and richness of the arts of the African continent. The course is divided into different perspectives and themes. Besides formal approaches to African art we learn about the various ways the visual arts reflect and function with respect to larger cultural issues. Within this context, students learn about the relationship of art to religion, gender, identity, and political power, discover the extensions of African visual culture into the Americas, and gain knowledge about key issues in the emergence of modern and contemporary art. Last but not least the course is also an introduction to the methods and vocabulary of the study of African art history and considers the general problems of how scholars understand and write about African arts. General Learning Objectives: In addition to learning about African art students will develop and practice the ability to analyze, interpret, contextualize and write on visual works of art. They will develop critical thinking skills in response to scholarly literature and be introduced to disciplinary theories and methods. a. The ability to analyze, interpret, and write on visual works of art. b. Ability to contextualize cultural and historical significance of artworks. c. Knowledge of the history of art from pre-history to d. Knowledge of the history of art from 1700 to the present. e. Ability to conduct art historical research. f. Oral presentation skills. g. Critical thinking ability in response to scholarly literature. h. Understanding of disciplinary history, theories, and methods. Monday & Wednesday 1:30-2:45 pm Professor Peter Probst ( Department of Art History, 11 Talbot Avenue Office hours: Tuesday 2:00 4:00 pm
3 Recommended Readings: McClusky, Pam Art from Africa. Princeton: Seattle Art Museum Spring, Chris African Art in Detail. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press Course Readings You will find all the course readings as pdf files on Blackboard. Since the readings give the background information necessary to initiate stimulating class discussions, assignments must be read prior to the date they will be discussed in class. You should read the articles with care, highlighting the main points in each chapter or article and making notes as you read. Be sure to write any questions or comments you have and we can discuss them in class. Course Requirements: Mid-term (25%) Final (25%) Discussion / Blackboard Input (10%) Paper 1 (20%) Paper 2 (20%) Papers / Audio Guide The two papers length 5 pages each, double space are conceived as a text for an audio guide, i.e. a text written for a recorded spoken commentary through a handheld device to a museum visitor. Each paper describes, discusses and explains one particular object and is organized in three parts. The first part will give a formal description of the object. The second part informs about the cultural and historical background while the third part focuses on issues of meaning. (It goes without saying that the part two and three will vary depending on the object and the knowledge available.) Students will choose their own object and need to do research to gain proper information. For a first overview check google scholar but you also need to make yourself familiar with the electronic resources at Tisch library. The librarians will be happy to help you. First paper due 10/15 Second paper due 11/28
4 Exam Format Exams consist of two parts. Part one consists of slide identification with questions pertaining to origin, date, material, form, and significance/meaning. Part two consists of essay questions. Academic Conduct Plagiarism is defined as representing the work of another as your own. This includes copying the answers of another student on an examination or restating the work of another person without citing the appropriate source in a written paper. I am required to report cases of suspected academic misconduct to the Dean s Office and penalties include suspension of expulsion from the university. If you are in doubt as to whether you are appropriately using research materials, please contact me.
