Mapping the Shifting Terrains | Reading Public/Reading Art, a course facilitated by Santhosh Sadanandan, organised in collaboration with Serendipity Arts.

This course will attempt to think together and interrogate the complimentary as well as contestatory relationship of the notion of the public, and the nomenclature of public art. Structured as a reading group, it will explore the multiple dimensions of public art practices, their audiences and constituent, emerging vocabularies. The role of art in the public realm in the 21st Century is one with a multidisciplinary emphasis, and this workshop seeks to map out the present socio-cultural/ political moment for public art through modes of reading and writing that will critically consider what public art is un/able to respond to today.
