"Spending My Time." A Seminar on Writing About One`s Own Work

 

After focusing on writing texts for and about other artists last semester, this spring we are asking ourselves the million-dollar question: How do I describe what I do? Using various examples from art history, we will look at different approaches to describing art in order to ultimately put our own work into writing. With texts by Sara Magenheimer, Hélio Oiticica, Rosemary Mayer, Harmony Hammond, Jack Whitten and Moyra Davey.
