ARHS 6070P - The Artist as a Global Traveler

Institution:

Tulane University of Louisiana

Subject:

Art History

Description:

Prof. Bazzano-Nelson. The Artist as a Global Traveler examines case studies of artists whose practices have been linked to the nation of world travel since medieval times to the present." " It studies how the perspective of itinerant artists was shaped and challenged by Eurocentric/ethnocentric expectations–their own and those of others–and what this meant for the process of capitalist expansion." " It critically addressed the artistic activities of artists who later congregated in certain key places–Paris, New York, and New Orleans–considering them as “contact zones”, sites that have favored intense interactions among itinerant artists, curators, critics, and other members of the increasingly globalized and culturally diverse art field." " The service learning component gives the students the opportunity to work more closely with artists and curators whose art or exhibitions have traveled to New Orleans." "
