Description
I chaired this panel at the 106th Annual CAA Conference in Los Angeles, CA explored the definitions and boundaries between Art History, Studio Art, and the various expansions that have emerged in the past few decades including, but not limited to: Material Culture, Visual and Cultural Studies, Critical Studies, and Curatorial Studies. As more and more institutions move toward these types of hybrid programs, this session sought to clarify the goals and outcomes for degree programs on both the baccalaureate and graduate level. The purpose of this session was to delineate the difference between these interdisciplinary programs and their counterparts in Studio Art and Art History. What are the benefits and drawbacks of such courses of study? Do they adequately, or better, prepare students for careers and/or graduate study in art, art history, museum studies, and arts management? Is it wise to blend together the study of art production with its history, or should the two remain separate while building on one another as they have in the past?| Period | 21 Feb 2018 |
