Join us for the third meeting in our 10-week artistic workshop program!
This week we will be discussing Walter Benjamin’s “The Work of Art in the Age of its Mechanical Reproducibility” and an excerpt from Theodor Adorno’s Aesthetic Theory, titled “Enigmaticalness, Truth Content, Metaphysics”.
Please also bring in work or a presentation on your own art practice as we continue to critique one another’s work and curate our show in the fall.
The readings can be found at the following:
