ART 212 - Gender Studies in Photography, Art, and Visual Culture

This class focuses on the representation of gender in art and visual culture, inclusive of non-binary and transgender visibility and representation. We will look at the work of artists and activists in public spaces such as museums and galleries, protests, social media, and some popular media (graphic novels, TV, film) as well as more private spaces and hidden or unseen images and histories in homes, archives, and radical and/or alternative spaces. Readings will address foundational texts in gender visibility, performance, identity and representation as well as theoretical studies on the complexities and nuances of visibility.

Cross-listed with GEN 212
