Mid May classes Contemporary Arts Field School I and II (CA 308 and CA 309) start at the Woodwards’ Campus Vancouver. Until end of May, students work on presentations of Berlin’s historic cultural and political context, start a research journal and form 1st ideas for individual projects. Some sessions prepare the group for the travel period in Berlin: students get introduced to German customs, culturally specific do’s and don’ts. The class works on a BFS code of conduct and prepares for the 6 weeks being away from home.
