Course Objectives: | Emerging in the mid-20th century, ‘Performance Art’ emerged in America as a continuation of avant-garde movements (such as Futurism, Dadaism, Expressionism, Surrealism). Basically, this movement, which discusses conventional music and performing arts in terms of form and content, breaks stereotypical artistic ideas and consists only of action-oriented performances, regardless of space and time. Within the framework of a specific theme, it is possible to see performances in almost all art genres in addition to genres such as Happening, Pop-Art, Fluxus. Students taking the course will have knowledge in the field of performance art and will reach a basic level of knowledge about contemporary art. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to acquire the following knowledge. |
