    3.00 Credits
    Tiffin University

    This is a survey course of topics in the histories and cultural uses of photography in Europe and the US in the 19th and 20th centuries. It starts with the origins of photography in Enlightenment and early Industrial Revolution Europe. The course examines the role of the daguerreotype in the US, and photography’s role with war, western expansion, and social Darwinism. There will be discussions on the establishment of elite art organizations in Europe and the US by the 1890s, concurrent with the flood of mass consumer photography and commercial production. From there the course will examine major developments and uses of photography such as magazine journalism, advertising and fashion, social documentary, as well as photographic practices linked to art movements like constructivism, surrealism, documentary realism, and formalism. It will conclude with a look at the more contemporary postmodern practices which foreground the question of photography’s social and psychic operations. Special attention will be paid to the interrelations among photography’s diverse cultural uses and the terms in which debates about the medium’s unstable art status have played out.

Feminism provides a framework to examine the intersections of race, gender, and sexuality to challenge the idea of art history as a unified discourse. This course will examine the impact of women on the arts in three ways. It will examine the theories of feminism, race, gender, and sexuality and explore how these theories are expressed in the visual arts. The course will survey the lives and contributions of women artists from the Renaissance to the present, the shifts in the portrayals of women, and criticism of female artists over that time period.
