BA Culture, Criticism and Curation draws on a range of methodologies from interdisciplinary practice and critical theories to engage critically with aspects of curation, research and writing. The curriculum takes inspiration from current urgent social issues, history and futurity, exploring connections between core topics, historical context and political issues. The course ambition is to foster cross-disciplinary dialogue to produce future writers, curators, producers, thinkers and doers whose practice is critical and contextual, demonstrating a commitment to the progression of arts, culture and heritage and is alive to the social and cultural contexts and impact of their work.
Our approach to curatorial practice and engagement and writing as critical practice focuses on process in relation to outcome. Within an art school context, you are offered opportunities to collaborate and engage with a variety of practices through curatorial projects and writing. Student-centred learning informs critical enquiry and the course’s culture of reflection and active listening.
The course offers space for you to realise research and projects which reflect on the effects of our digital and material worlds. Individual and group projects engage with social and political issues, histories, identities and reflect on the role of communities. In the context of collaboration, collective practice, and co-operation the course aims to disrupt the present and take ownership of the future. We aim to initiate and foster debate in the context of anti-capitalist, eco-feminist and post-colonialist critique and action.
We are committed to developing ethical curatorial practices. To achieve this, we are working to embed UAL's Principles for Climate, Social and Racial Justice into the course.
