The Beginning

This blog will be used for my summer independent study in the Fine Arts Cultural Studies Programme at York University. Included will be analyses on the various articles I will be reading in addition to articles/critiques on art/art shows around the city. I intend to use my readings to inform my analyses of the art which I will be viewing over the course of the next few weeks and, hopefully, reach the following goals:
1) Attain a good understanding of the articles in a practical context
2) Find a few articles whose ideas really 'speak' to me
3) Gain a better understanding of and experience with visual art analysis (in a cultural studies context)
4) Get feedback from friends/peers on my writing, my critique-ing, my ideas on the theorists' ideas, etc.
