| Course Objectives: | This course aims to discuss the modern way of seeing with its socio-economical, cultural and artistic dimensions and to point to different ways of seeing. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Develop a critical perspective regarding the historical development of modern societies; 2. Identify the way of seeing that is both the producer and a product of modernity 3. Identify modernist and postmodernist works and create critical texts ; 4. Develop a sophisticated criticism of cultural products; 5. Explore different forms of narration and understand the way of seeing that they produce; 6. Develop ideas/concepts/artworks in relation to other works of art and culture. |
| In this course, modern way of seeing that is a product and a producer of modernity and other ways of seeing will be discussed through art, cinema, music, architecture and literature. Modernity and its reflections in the city and its culture will also be examined. |
