1. General information
The main objective of the subject is the acquisition and application of technical, visual and conceptual resources for the elaboration and development of artistic installations. Other objectives are:
- To know the strategies for the formulation, development and production of creative thinking.
- To work on the operability of the space. The conceptual and spatial temporality inherent to the project.
- To analyse the repercussions of authorship: implications, modes, processes of subjectivation.
This elective serves as a unifying element of different disciplines and orders of knowledge, both technical and conceptual, as it presents a potential integrative and multidisciplinary character. In this sense, it helps students to develop their artistic practice, in order to configure a personal plastic language.
These approaches and objectives are aligned with the following SDGs:
O5. Gender Equality.
O12. Responsible Production and Consumption
2. Learning results
Upon completion of this subject, the student will be able to:
- Know and apply the basic techniques and procedures that allow them to materialize their personal project based on the premises that define the installation in any of its manifestations.
- To know and use the appropriate documentary sources where to find the references prior to the materialization of their creative proposal.
- To generate and relate ideas within the creative process.
- To develop a critical spirit about the role of art and the artist in today's society, and with respect to their own work.
- To know how to present their creative proposals in public in a clear and orderly manner, arguing the criteria on which they are based, and using the most appropriate communicative resources for their presentation.
- To be able to integrate into a work team, developing the functions entrusted to them, and contributing to the achievement of the objectives set in a collective project.
- To adequately integrate in their personal proposals artistic discourses of different nature, relating them to other disciplines and fields of knowledge.
3. Syllabus
In Installations, the strategies of orientation and construction of personal artistic projects aimed at the experience, production and practice of the installation are considered, taking into account: the limits of the project (frameworks, environments and contexts) and the heterogeneity of the procedures and the significant unity.
These concepts are arranged in the following sequence by content blocks:
BLOCK 0. Presentation and introduction (2 sessions/weeks)
BLOCK 1. Space-time dimensions (5 sessions/weeks)
BLOCK 2. The body dimension (4 sessions/week)
BLOCK 3. The morphological, semantic and grammatical dimension (4 sessions/weeks)
BLOCK 4. Occupancy and interaction strategies (4 sessions/week)
BLOCK 5. The experience of dissolution (4 sessions/weeks)
BLOCK 6. The installation as a debate (4 sessions/weeks)
