IN 130 OR FA 110, HUM 150, PSY 101, SSC 101, SC 118, and SC 120; Developing a Global Perspective Level 2; Effective Citizenship Level 2 - In this course the student begins to learn how to interpret global art and its relationship to visual culture by examining her role as a consumer of the visual. She investigates how geography is signified to create a sense of place, of belonging or unbelonging; how economic issues evolve in the creation, distribution, and consumption of art or visual culture; and how communities use civil discourse with nongovernmental and governmental organizations to develop their cultural policies and projects. She considers these issues as she looks at the arts and visual culture around the globe to uncover how visual instrumentation is developing as a local or global agenda.
