Presentation
Presentation
This optional course will present examples of authors and cultural projects that utilize interdisciplinary artistic approaches. The observed and studied intersections will concern both different artistic fields and different scientific domains. The aim is for students to be able to construct an interdisciplinary project through the intersection of areas of knowledge and the combination of artistic/visual approaches.

Objectives
Objectives
On completion of this course, the student will be able to: Explore the expanded field of painting through experimentation that crosses various formats and fields of visual culture. Identify and accept exhaustive experimentation, risk, and error as necessary conditions for artistic practice. Encourage explorations into different fields of knowledge that transcend the artistic domain (Anthropology, History, Postcolonial Theory, Ecology, Geography, etc.) Promote artistic projects as practices that embrace, investigate, problematize, debate, and act on cultural and social phenomena and/or problems, in collaboration with experts and entities outside the university. Explore collaborative practices in different contexts, benefiting the artistic project and the groups/entities involved.

Classes are theoretical and practical and include the following teaching methodologies/strategies: Contact with entities outside the University, leading to the identification of phenomena or problems to be explored through research and guided experimentation. Case studies - techniques, methods, and issues present in contemporary art, characterized by the intersection of: different artistic fields (Painting, Performance, Design, Film, Video, Photography, Drawing, Sculpture, Sound, among others); different scientific fields (Painting, Anthropology, History, Post-Colonial Theory, Ecology, Geography, Biology, etc.); Debates on topics involved in projects developed in class; Continuous assessment of classwork and monitoring of independent work.
