AI 179 - Photo Documentatn/ Contmpy Life

Institution:

DePaul University

Subject:

Description:

Every significant social issue since the invention of photography has been documented. Social thought and political intention, especially in the 20th century, exists in visual form. Sometimes the record-making is intentional while, at other times, it is inadvertent. Photographs crafted through the filter of intention offer the viewer the ability to better understand the physical form of earlier ideas and eras thus offering everyone, at any time, an entrance to historically substantive social issues. Each class session will be devoted to a social issue that can be photographed. Students will photographically engage these themes using their own polaroid cameras. *SNL course, Artistic Issues in Instant Image Photography, is a pre-requisite for this course. Pre-1999 Competencies: PW-O, AL-F, AL-9 & AL10, HC-I, HC-9 & HC-10. BA-1999 Competencies: S-3-E, A-2-X, E-1, E-2, H-3-B.
