M. Fernandez.

In this seminar students will investigate the emergence of feminism in art and theory and subsequent reactions of relevant artists and theorists to that movement. These developments will be discussed in relation to the accelerated technological developments of the twentieth century, which affected not only modes of communication and artistic production but also scientific and popular understandings of bodies, and nature. Themes will include sex and gender, nature, representation, pleasure, technology and the body, race, surveillance, pornography and agency. Media covered in the course include painting, performance, installation, video, film, and interactive digital media.
