课程简介

课程名称:MOOC艺术:激进主义与社会运动 课程概述:本课程面向希望深入理解和参与社会变革的激进主义者、艺术家和思想者。我们将重点关注社会参与艺术与全球最新社会运动产生的文化实践之间的丰富交集。课程将探讨像哀悼、倾听、组织、舞蹈或聚会等文化活动在当代艺术实践中的位置,而非评估这些活动的政治有效性。课程邀请了许多杰出的艺术家、激进主义者和学者作为嘉宾讲者,包括Rebecca Gomperts、Chido Govera、Joshua Wong等。课程由杜克大学教授Pedro Lasch设计,并与Creative Time艺术总监Nato Thompson共同授课,挑战学习者将MOOC视为一种社会与艺术形式,强调实践性组件、地方项目生产、全球交流和批判反馈。 课程大纲: 1. 激进主义与社会运动简介:概述课程结构、工作流程、全球社区及总体指引。 2. 激进主义与社会运动:讲座、嘉宾演讲与测验:探索社会参与艺术与当代社会运动的关系,特别是全球范围内的环境主义、艾滋病运动、性少数运动等。 3. 激进主义与社会运动:项目与同伴评审:学生将基于课程的启发进行自我实验,项目为自愿,且不影响课程评分。 4. 美学、艺术史与文化机构:讲座、嘉宾演讲与测验:探讨社会运动如何影响当代艺术与文化,以项目为基础审视社会实践与传统艺术的关系。 5. 美学、艺术史与文化机构:项目与同伴评审:学生进行自我评审项目,提供项目实现的基础与灵感。 6. 具身知识:讲座、嘉宾演讲与测验:通过“具身知识”的概念将激进主义与社会参与艺术联系到表现艺术与社会经验,提出以身体经验为基础的思考。 7. 具身知识:项目与同伴评审:以之前的讲座和演讲为基础,开展学生的自我实验,维持非评分性质。 本课程不需要先前的艺术创作或激进主义经验,项目也为高级学习者提供了挑战性选项。欢迎在Coursera课程目录中搜索“MOOC艺术”获取其他相关课程。

课程大纲

Name:Introduction to Activism and Social Movements

Description:This short module includes an overview of the course's structure, working process, global community, and overall guidelines. Make sure to read it right away and refer back to it whenever needed.

Name:Activism and Social Movements: Lectures, Guest Presentations, and Quiz

Description:This opening segment is dedicated to the prolific and exciting overlap between socially engaged art and cultural practices generated by recent social movements around the world. Environmentalism, AIDS activism, Queer movements, Zapatismo, immigrant rallies, alter-globalization, the World Social Forum, Occupy, the Hong Kong Umbrella Movement, museum boycotts, and democratic uprisings in the Middle East will be seen in dialogue with cultural producers who participate in these movements or are inspired by them. Rather than assess the political efficacy of such cultural activities, we will examine their place within contemporary art practices. Based on Listening, Organizing, Dancing, or Partying, each student’s contribution will respond to a particular social movement of their choosing.

Name:Activism and Social Movements: Project and Peer Review

Description:The prompt, lecture and guest presentations will provide the foundation and inspiration for students’ own experiments. These student experiments were originally peer reviewed projects in the ART of the MOOC series, but have now been made entirely optional and self-reviewed. If you want to do them, we recommend you chose one of the two options (one is more social, the other more individual) and complete the optional quiz after you are done. Your project submissions and the quiz are not graded, so they will not impact your performance in the course.

Name:Aesthetics, Art History, and Cultural Institutions - Lectures, Guest Presentations, and Quiz

Description:Just as recent social movements have transformed contemporary art and culture, activists have relied on ideas developed in more specialized cultural circles, sometimes without knowing it. Starting with an exploration of the ways in which socially engaged public art has been included and excluded from particular narratives, theories, institutions, and events, we will use this lesson to follow social practices as they question conventional art and art history. As we do so, students will be invited to create projects that directly engage with Cultivating, Farming, Cooking, or Eating—activities that are fundamentally social but traditionally seen to contradict serious artistic production.

Your project submissions and the quiz are not graded, so they will not impact your performance in the course.

Name:Embodied Knowledges - Lectures, Guest Presentations, and Quiz

Description:This lesson will use the notion of ‘embodied knowledges’ to link activism and socially engaged art to performance art, gesture, and ‘writing without words.’ Recognizing that knowledge is inseparable from one’s lived, physical, and social experience, ‘embodied knowledges” challenge the Western paradigms that separate information from matter, reason from affect, mind from the body, the worker from her labor, the individual from the collective. This lesson’s practical components will ask students to actively think ‘from’ their particular site of enunciation and ‘through’ their particular embodied knowledge. Guest presenters: Mujeres Creando, Regina José Galindo, Mariam Ghani, Sharon Hayes, Chemi Rosado-Seijo

This course is for activists, artists, and thinkers who wish to better understand and participate in social change. We will focus on the prolific and exciting overlap between socially engaged art and cultural practices generated by recent social movements around the world. Rather than assess the political efficacy of activities like mourning, listening, organizing, dancing, or partying, the lectures examine such cultural activities next to, and within, contemporary art practice. Included in the course are guest presentations by key artists, activists, and scholars, like: Rebecca Gomperts, Chido Govera, Gulf Labor, Hans Haacke, Sharon Hayes, Jolene Rickard, Gregory Sholette, Joshua Wong, and many more. Designed by artist and Duke professor, Pedro Lasch and co-taught by Creative Time artistic director, Nato Thompson, the course challenges learners to treat the MOOC itself as a social and artistic form. This happens mostly through the practical components, local project productions, global exchanges, and critical feedback. While no prior art making or activist experience is required, projects also offer challenging options for advanced learners. For other course offerings or language versions in this series, just search 'ART of the MOOC' inside the Coursera course catalogue.
