HART 529: RACE AND ART IN LATIN AMERICA

Spring 2024 · Section 001 · CRN 25576

This course will explore discourses on race and their influence on artistic endeavors in modern Latin America. Examining texts from various disciplines, we will discuss how dominant ideas on race that defined national identities shaped the production and reception of art, and how artists illustrated or contested these discourses in their works. Students will learn about key theories of race, Black and indigenous artistic productions, and the role of museums in this history. This class will include field trips to local museums and galleries. Graduate students will complete two in-class presentations and a 20-25p research paper. Cross-list: HART 329. Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for HART 529 if student has credit for HART 329.
