Course description
This course explores recent approaches to the study of film and television as art forms. The course is designed to draw upon and build upon the gateway and cornerstone courses of the Film and Television Major and the Art History Major. We will explore the particular, formal qualities of each art form as well as the meanings and values of particular movements and works in conjunction with recent ¿aesthetic¿ approaches in four main fields of research: art history, film studies, philosophical aesthetics, and television studies.
