Description

Employing an intersectional feminist approach, this course addresses how gender and sexuality impact the creation and study of visual arts in western art history. Focusing on the roles, experiences and representation of women in western art, this course also ignites learning about masculinities and aesthetics, queer art and activism, and gendered racism. Art history lectures are complimented with critical dialogue sessions, four art-making workshops, and opportunities to visit with practicing artists, art historians and curators. No art-making experience required.
