Course Description

This course will investigate the ways in which artists have presented narratives in the public realm and the organizations that have made the presentation of those works central to their curatorial practices over the last 40 years. Focusing on recent works presented in New York’s public spaces by Creative Time, The Public Art Fund, the Percent for Art Program, Arts for Transit and other non-profits organizations, this course will look at what it meant to tell stories and open discourses that challenged or interrogated widely-held value systems, the events and the politics of their time. In addition to the specifics of current and other key works and projects, we will discuss the conditions that governed the development of public performance, temporary and permanent installations, the ways in which those works were influenced by public approval processes and governmental agencies, media coverage and community response. Each student’s final project will be an on-line proposal for an exhibition that conveys a “narrative“ developed in the context of this course, referencing other relevant works .

Food For Thought --In class exercise Individually-LI

Food For Thought --In class exercise.

In the wake the SanBernadino attacks on December 2, 2015 and the political responses to that event, the class was asked to work in groups to respond to the following:

ON THIS PAGE OF  OUR CLASS BLOG, after identifying the members of your group making the entries:


2. Individually, create a bullet pointed list of three to five aspects of the practice you plan to pursue that might influence or provide a means to addressing those challenges.

I wish to become a production, a set or a stage designer work for TV shows, concerts and films.
It is hard to explain the word of "production" in design felid. A production designer almost need to know everything about design from my opinion. 
They have to know how to design for people they have never talked.(Audiences)
They have to know how to explain literature, music, acting and lighting through the set they produced.
They have to know materials, constructions and everything need to build it up.
They have to work as a group or work with other groups of people.
They need to make sure everything is perfect during filming or Tech.
A production designer could come from different place. 
They might do sculpture, photography, paintings or interior before they actually become one.

It doesn’t matter what they did before, but what they did could benefit or help them to see the world.
Some production designer actually wants to do public sculptures, which makes their design focus on landscape.

Some production designer used to do urban design. They care a lot about green materials, cost of money and waste of materials. They could use recycled materials to make pretty sets for stage.

 I studied interior design at Parsons of the New School, I’ve learned a lot of things about space, lightings, materials, construction documents and human movements in my program.


I would love to wait work and see what I could carry from interior design studies to production.
