AHGSAY's 14th Annual Symposium: Imagined Worlds
Room 130 in the Joan & Martin Goldfarb Centre for Fine Arts CFA
World picture does not mean picture of the world but, rather, the world grasped as picture. Beings as a whole are now taken in such a way that a being is first and only in being insofar as it is set in place by representing-producing humanity Martin Heidegger, The Age of the World Picture, 1938.
The 14th Annual York University Art History Graduate Student Symposium seeks to question the effigy of the real, notions of verisimilitude and the productive spaces created by processes of simulation in art, history, ritual, and life. This year, a number of thinkers and makers will address augmented reality, claiming space, critical interventions and speculative realism.
