Postgraduate

This subject explores theoretical and conceptual frameworks within which to discuss and critically evaluate current and ongoing issues within the arts industry. It enables students to pursue their own research interests, which should be related to ongoing professional arts involvement, and supported through regular seminar participation. The field of cultural studies forms the basis of the subject's critical focus. The subject draws broadly upon sociology, social anthropology, political economy and post-structural theories with regard to art theory, and cultural formations. It encourages students to investigate a cultural object or form in relation to its audience. Content and format vary from year to year, depending on student interest.
