Questions 3, 4 and 5

3. Contemporary Art: Criticism is difficult because there are many definitions of what art is and many kinds of standards for quality. But even though it is difficult to define what art is, it is not so difficult to define the contexts of art such as galleries, museums, etc.  We have chosen to focus on a certain kind of art in this class that is best defined by the contexts where we find it. The art we are studying in this class is defined by what contexts?  

4. Postmodern Curriculum: Olivia Gude
What are Olivia Gude’s criticism of elements and principles of design?  How would you argue against her and defend an  approach to art education that places emphasis on formalist principles of design?
What does she suggest as possible alternative elements of a post-modern art education? (Refer to both articles)


5. Media Arts and Visual Culture
What is media arts literacy?  What is critical pedagogy?  Why are they important?
