Tin Sheds Art Workshop 2008

Students wishing to take the Allied Arts in Architecture stream must take a minimum of 18 credit points. Site Specific Art and Public Art are mandatory for third year students wishing to take this stream. These units of study are both run in Semester 1, 2008. Site Specific Art will also run in Semester 2. Please consult the handbook and TSG noticeboard for further information and unit of study descriptions.

Site Specific Art and Public Art allows the student to focus on areas of particular relevance to architects, planners, designers, policy makers and artists. The courses specifically look at place and space and how art and architecture can be thought about in a dynamic and imaginative ways.

Site Specific Art is a practical unit of study informed by current thinking and practice. It enables students to explore visual art that is conceptualised and made for a particular place and space.

Public Art aims, through slide lectures, case studies and field trips, to provide a broad overview of the issues that influence and inform the production of art in the public sphere: current local and international practice, history and theory of public art, policy and management, conservation, community response and evaluation.
