Additional Information

This subject investigates shifts in various artistic practices since the patenting of the chemical fixing of the image produced by the Camera Obscura i.e. the invention of photography in 1837. The course posits that the development of a photo-realistic medium had a material impact on how artists represent the world through new art movements. Essential for photographers and modern art history novices alike, the course illustrates art practice since pre-photography starting with Romanticism 1780-1850 through to current art practice with Post-Modernism and Deconstructivism in architecture. There is an emphasis on how photography has informed and continues to inform other artistic mediums while in itself the photographic medium has been and continues to be informed by other art practices.
