FA 273 History of Video Art


3 credits

This course is a survey of the history of video art, from the advent of the Portapak in the 1960s through today’s digital media landscape. In addition to the technical history of video art, students will be introduced to key figures, themes, and styles of video art, along with various methodological approaches to the interpretation of the medium. We will also trace the development of the medium alongside corresponding socio-political concerns, including surveillance, identity and representation, and mass media.
