Visual Arts, Columbia University, New York

This course examines ways of looking and ways of seeing, both personally & professionally as artists and in a larger cultural context. Through field trips to contemporary art and other cultural sites, conversations with visiting critical thinkers and practicioners, readings, discussions, and visual & written responses, we will examine how we look, think, act, create and respond--critically questioning our own artistic practices and ways of looking at the world.

What Happens? (DP)

What happens?

A Necklace Put Next to a Red Delicious Apple

----the appearance of religion in the apple world

On Earth, there are thousands of different kinds of apple. And these apples have their own little world. In the human society, countries are differently developed, so fruits will have their different fate by transportation and purchasing. In the apple market, they are sold with different prices. According to this, they have their own classes. And certainly, the more pricing apple enjoys a higher status. And red delicious happen to be in the top.


One day, a red delicious is bought by a wealthy family in a developed country. It’s brought home and well settled. And somehow, a necklace of the mistress is placed just next to one big red delicious. The apple is so exited and delighted, the delicate necklace makes it look so different and even more respectful than before in the apple world. As time goes by, the apple wants to rule the world while the others are deeply worried about their being-eaten destiny and want to survive, so something about the super natural power spread out among the apples. They begin to believe that the decorated big red delicious is really something.


Then, the religion in the apple world appears.
