My favourite subject
My favourite subject of this term is called "Work and Speech"(I suppose that the translate is correct, the name of the subjects of my career are weird). In this subject I study the correlation of Art and politics. I can see the relation of artistic work and daily works since the context of Russian avant-garde and the essay: "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical reproduction" of Walter Benjamin. With the mechanical reproduction, work of Art lost its "aura". The mass production and the work undermine the aesthetic autonomy. The aesthetic autonomy is also a content of the subject, I read "Critique of judgement" of Immanuel Kant to understand the artistic autonomy. It's an exposition class and have two assessment until now. I like this subject cause I'm interested in the Art process, the modern way of understand Art in its non-representation condition and its relationship with daily life in a political sense. The subject will finish with the ideas of Jacques Rancièrè about this problems, is important his idea of emancipation and the implication of Art in this.
