Learning outcomes

The course has two aims: 1. To acquaint students with the spectrum of contemporary philosophical views of art and an artwork. 2. Philosophically reflect on various contexts, in which art operates today - and which are entered by both the artist and the curator. In this course, we understand philosophy in a transdisciplinary way, i.e. with overlaps into political science, sociology, media studies, anthropology, esthetics, psychology, history, etc. The contexts to be (philosophically) discussed include, but are not limited to: current theories of sensory perception, overlaps of individual types of sensory perception (e.g. acoustic visuality or haptic visuality), esthetics and policy of representation, a turn to the image, a subject and questioning it, gender, environment, town and country, genealogy of values and evaluation, digital and social media, and postmodern religiosity. Lectures will be conducted in non-academic language with emphasis on clarity. The students are not required to have any baseline knowledge of philosophy.
The student is acquainted with methods used in philosophy and has a notion of history of philosophy of art (from Plato to the second half of the 20th century). They are able to interpret an artwork from the philosophical point of view. The student is able to grasp and interpret a philosophical text in a logical manner. According to philosophical tradition, they can critically evaluate key theses of individual thinkers. Based on the acquired basic practical skills, the student can elaborate a cultivated and precisely conceived essay (synthesis) built upon both source texts and secondary literature (including work with footnotes and quoting sources).
