"BAD ART"
(VLPA, I&S)
WHILE BAD ART IS COMMONLY ASSUMED
TO BE SIMPLY ART LACKING ARTISTIC
SKILL AND COMPLEXITY, THIS COURSE
WILL APPROACH BAD ART AS
SOMETHING MORE THAN A VALUE
SYSTEM. AS A TERM WE WILL TAKE IT
TO REFER TO A HOST OF ACTIVITIES
AND PHENOMENA RIVEN WITH
CONTRADICTIONS AND
MISUNDERSTANDINGS. UNAPPRECIATED
ARTWORKS IN ONE ERA, MAY, GIVEN
THE RIGHT SET OF ECONOMIC AND
POLITICAL CIRCUMSTANCES, BECOME
CELEBRATED AND HIGHLY VALUED IN
ANOTHER PERIOD.
