Course Summary

At the core of this research group lies the question, "How does art reveal our lived world in a new light?" The "oldness" or "newness" of artistic works is not the primary concern, as long as they have the potential to embody this sense of "newness." Art constantly breathes life through the individuals who engage with it. As long as artworks continually refresh our understanding, art never exists separate from the world in which we live. Artworks serve as catalysts that challenge fundamental assumptions about the world we consider natural.

The purpose of this research group is to explore the relationship between art, humanity, and the world. However, this exploration goes beyond abstract language games or mere hobbyist discussions. It requires participants to define their specific areas of interest, place them within historical and social contexts, and meticulously analyze and examine the details of artworks. Furthermore, it is essential to express the results of such analysis using precise and accessible language, enabling sharing and understanding among others within the academic setting.
