This course will explore the histories and methods of making zines, investigating the strategies of quantity and dispersion. Students will learn about the processes of making a democratic multiple through processes such as silkscreen and digital printing. To spark inspiration and develop artistic values, we will learn about contemporary and historical independent presses, artists, and communities who use zines as an essential mode of expression. We will examine the ways the form of the multiple has allowed artists and activists to share ideas with fewer overhead costs and without permission, bypassing institutional gatekeeping, surveillance, and censorship. Later in the semester, we will challenge our understanding of form, function, and artistic authorship by making wearables and working collaboratively. |
