• ObjectivosObjectives

  This unit is dedicated to questioning the character and conceptualization of the notion of interdiscipline associated with an artistic practice. The aim is to provide master's students with an exploratory place, conceptually and using exercises associated with their research and artistic interests. To this end, the UC is structured around two moments: the first, contact with questions, authors and concepts that help them problematize interdisciplinary practices and their own notions of practice and discipline in different contexts and historical moments , ideological and cultural. They must learn to contextualize these references, interpret objects with nuances and undo polarization, articulate arguments coherently, and develop an investigation through oral and written discussion between peers. An introduction to critical thinking about the structure, form and contents of different objects and works will be worked on, which is intended to be transferred to your own practices.

• MetodologiaMethodology

  The teaching methodology of this curricular unit is based on a theoretical approach, through the exposure of content in classes, with the help of audiovisual materials, bibliography, and access to support materials previously prepared by the teacher (bibliography, audiovisual material, suggestion of events). These materials will be delivered via the professor's institutional e-mail and later discussed in class. A level of involvement and discussion appropriate to the topics and level of studies in question is expected. Practical exercises will also be carried out focused on the themes proposed in class, with the aim of developing critical thinking skills also in writing: an oral presentation (20 minutes, conference format with discussion) of the theme proposed to work on in the written essay; writing a written essay. Time will also be reserved for face-to-face and e-mail tutorial guidance.
