No matter where or when, humans share a common impulse for self-expression through visual imagery despite vast differences among their creative choices. This course explores the significances of visual art for humanity as well as how its study can foster deep cross-cultural connections and individual self-discovery. We investigate the interpretive frames and types of evidence used to "answer" big questions, using objects such as paintings, sculptures, and architectural monuments as primary evidence, in combination with other sources (such as scholarly readings and historical texts) as inductive analysis tools and as modes for exploring art history as a humanistic discipline.

Global Media Cultures explores how people living in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and beyond produce and consume media in both immediate (local) and distributed (global) contexts. Drawing from a (once more, global) range of written texts that reckon with the political, economic, and technological constraints and affordances of media, communication, and culture around the world, students will watch complementary popular forms of entertainment in order to understand how these artifacts process and document the human experience, as well as the meanings they express to audiences, whether these audiences are domestic, diasporic, or transnational. Engaging with and writing about these materials, the class is structured to radiate outward, from media-specific to nationally-specific considerations, and then beyond, to transnational and finally global media convergence.

4.00 Credits
This course looks at the lens and screen arts (photography, film, video, animation, and new media). By exploring creative, lens-based image practices from around the world, students will learn how these creative image practices build real and imagined communities transnationally. Addressing images through photographic genres and modes such as portraiture, landscape, documentary, and more, the course will take a comparative approach that allows us to look at a range of cultures outside the US. Within this comparative framework, certain units may focus on one specific region of the world and its diasporic communities.
