Composition, the manner in which elements are combined or related to form a whole in space and time, is a basic practice in all the arts. In this seminar, we will explore the compositional process through a series of problems that address the concept of site - by site, we mean either a physical location or semantic field within which the artist acts. Participants will compose individual and collaborative interventions with a wide range of sites - public, private, corporeal, and electronic - in response to the problems posed. |
