| Inhalte | How do painters and draughtspeople relate and position their work in relation to the current discourses? How to interrelate one‘s themes with contemporary art discourse? Answering these questions requires that a work be conveyed in relation to the big picture. Today, “social thinking,” interrelated engagement, meaning-making, and real-world contributions have become valued essentials to art practice. In addition, a glocal perspective has prevailed: painting and drawing are a broad field, informed by diverse art histories, ranging from oil on canvas to performative, temporal, digital, and AI-driven work. Their themes might address anything (un)thinkable. Their production processes include poetic, informative and applied approaches. Their objectives range from posing questions to sharing experiences and world views, raising awareness and bonding between people. In this seminar, we will discuss selected works to establish orientation points that are helpful for painters and draughtspeople to position their work. Objects of discussion include works by Songwen Chung, Uzo Egoun, Faith 47, Philip Guston, Nicholas Hlobo, Frida Kahlo, Gulsun Karamustafa, Lee Krasner, Kerry James Marshall, Obvious, Angel Otero, Wong Ping, Pamela Rosenkranz, Yinka Shonibare, Nancy Spero, Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum, Loranita Theo, Theo Triantafyllidis, Karen Walker, Made Wianta, Fred Wilson, Portia Zvavahera. Texts on art and painting will provide a framework; these include “Contemporary Painting in Context” (Ring Petersen et al. 2010), “The Coming of A Third Culture” (Miller 2014), “Contemporary Art” (Suryawanshi 2019), and “From Pigments to Pixels” (2022).
