How is our perception of a work of art influenced by what we know about
the time and place in which it was created? How does music establish a
mood or atmosphere? How do you evaluate a work of art?
Program 2 features two multi-arts performance pieces from different eras,
Quidam (1996) and Parade (1917). Using these productions
as references, you will explore how artists use various elements to shape
their works. You also will learn a process of critical evaluation to decide
whether a work of art successfully carries out the artists intentions.
