201	Visual Culture in the Context of Turkey: Perceptions of Visual Culture in Turkish Pre-Service Art Teacher Preparation Balkir, Nur 05 1900 (has links) This study explored the state of art education in Turkey as revealed by pre-service art education university instructors, and the potential of incorporating visual culture studies in pre-service art education in Turkey. The instructors' ideas about visual culture, and popular culture, the impact it might have, the content (objects), and the practices within the context of Turkey were examined. Visual culture was examined from an art education perspective that focuses on a pedagogical approach that emphasizes the perception and critique of popular culture and everyday cultural experiences, and the analysis of media including television programs, computer games, Internet sites, and advertisements. A phenomenological human science approach was employed in order to develop a description of the perception of visual culture in pre-service art education in Turkey as lived by the participants. In-person interviews were used to collect the data from a purposive sample of 8 faculty members who offered undergraduate and graduate art education pedagogy, art history, and studio courses within four-year public universities. This empirical approach sought to obtain comprehensive descriptions of an experience through semi-structural interviews. These interviews employed open-ended questions to gather information about the following: their educational and professional background; their definitions of art education and art teacher education and what it means for them to teach pre-service art education; critical reflections on the educational system of Turkey; perceptions of visual and popular culture; and finally individual approaches to teaching art education. This study was conducted for the purpose of benefiting pre-service art teacher education in general and specifically in Turkey. It provided the rationale, the nature, and pedagogy of visual culture as well as the why and how of visual culture art education in the context of Turkey. Furthermore, it provided insights into the potential contribution of the concept of visual culture to the understanding of art and improvement of art teacher training in the context of Turkey.

202	Etirer la communauté artistique au monde: une sociologie de la mondialisation artistique :enquêtes sur les controverses autour de l' "art contemporain africain" Gilsoul, Sarah 17 February 2015 (has links) Cette thèse envisage la mondialisation de l'espace artistique sous l'angle des représentations et des valeurs de l'art qui soutiennent le phénomène et lui donnent forme. Cette problématique est abordée au travers du cas de l' "art contemporain africain", des disputes et des controverses dont il est l'objet. Parce que ces dernières se manifestent principalement à l'occasion de grandes expositions et de biennales d'art contemporain en Europe comme en Afrique, elles constituent les terrains d'enquête de la recherche. / Doctorat en Sciences politiques et sociales / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished Science politique générale Art and society Art, African -- 21st century Globalization in art Art et société Art africain -- 21e siècle Mondialisation dans l'art Mondialisation de l'art sociologie pragmatique de l'art représentations et valeurs de l'art biennales africaines d'art contemporain universalité esthétique

204	Both temple and tomb: difference, desire and death in the sculptures of the Royal museum of central Africa Morris, Wendy Ann 30 November 2003 (has links) Both Temple and Tomb is a dissertation in two parts. The first part is an examination and analysis of a collection of 'colonial' sculptures on permanent display in the Royal Museum of Central Africa in Tervuren Belgium. The second part is a reflection on the author's own paintings, drawings and film and an examination of the critical potential of these images in challenging the colonial narratives of the RMCA. Part I presents two arguments. The first is that European aesthetic codes have been used to legitimize the conquest of the Congo and to award sanction to a voyeuristic gaze. The second is that the organization of the sculptures of Africans (and European females) into carefully managed spaces and relationships results in the creation of erotically-charged formations that are intended to afford pleasure to male European spectators. Part II examines the strategies used in Re-Turning the Shadows to disrupt (neo)colonial patterns of viewing that have become ritual and 'naturalized'. Against RMCA narratives that pay homage to the objectivity of science and research, the paintings and film present images that explore multiple subjectivities, mythologizing impulses, and metaphoric allusions. / Art History, Visual Arts & Musicology / M.A. (Visual Arts) Ethnographic museums Colonizing space and time Sanctioned eroticism Voyeuristic gaze Benevolence Noble Savages Absent metaphors of violence Cannibal consumption Insurgent aesthetics Critical potential of visual images 709.68 Morris, Wendy Ann Re-Turning the Shadows Art, Colonial -- Africa -- Exhibition Art and society Desire in art Death in art
205	The phenomenon of displacement in contemporary society and its manifestation in contemporary visual art Willemse, Emma Wilhelmina 11 1900 (has links) As an alternative to existing research which states that the phenomenon of displacement resists theorisation because of its complex nature, this study conducts a Phenomenological examination of the nature of displacement in which the interlinked losses in the key concepts of the consciousness of the displaced, namely Memory, Land and home and Identity, are navigated. It is shown that the current consciousness of society mimics these losses with the effect of displacement being experienced as a state of mind by contemporary society. By comparing selected artworks of artists Rachel Whiteread and Cornelia Parker, it is established that although manifested in diverse ways, contemporary artworks reflect displacement according to a set of broadly defined visual signifiers. The visual documentation of a site of displacement in the North West Province of South Africa and subsequently produced artworks underline these findings and highlight the elusive attributes of loss inherent in the displacement phenomenon. / Art History, Visual Arts & Musicology / M.A. (Visual Arts) Contemporary art Cyanotype Environmental psychology Haptic visuality Identity Photography Trauma Development-induced displacement Art and society Blue (colour) Blueprints Displacement Eisenberg (Daniel) Found objects (art) Home Home - Psychological aspects Individuation Installation art Loss Memory Objects - meaning Parker (Cornelia) Phenomenology Place affiliation Space and time Stiegler (Bernard) Time Time and art Trauma Whiteread (Rachel) Williamson (Sue) 704.086 Displacement (Psychology) in art Art -- Philosophy

210	Follow the thread : fabricated social structures with the body as text Le Roux, Angeline-Ann 11 1900 (has links) The broad focus of this study is on how, through inequalities in power in constructed human socio-political, socio-economic and legal structures, the value and dignity of human life is destroyed. The researcher as artist wished to represent these observations though visual metaphor, metonymy and synecdoche in an installation, "Follow the thread". The dissertation contextualises that work within the works of Sheila Hicks, Amita Makan, Magdalena Abakanowicz and Ana Mendieta, all of whom use organic materials related to ideas about life and death. The first three use fibres as a metaphor for life. Through the analysis of metaphors in the selected artworks, the allusiveness of these metaphors is examined to offer insights about their indirect, referential, and evocative nature. It is revealed in the study that the success of metaphors operating within the visual language is closely linked to their complexity, their range scope and multimodality, and their ability to provoke multivalent, layered interpretations of artworks. My sculptural drawings that resemble fragments of the human body in the installation are a metaphor for the abuse of human dignity and for the disregard those in power have when life is reduced to bare life, rather than life appropriate to a legal citizen. / Arts and Music / M.V.A.
