Description
Through the study of historical and contemporary visual texts (from ethnography and portraiture to advertising and erotica), this course explores how photographic images of the body, while masquerading as "natural," "self-evident," or "scientific," participate in highly coded sign systems that influence who looks at whom, how, when, and why.
Class Notes
In summer, all prerequisites and restrictions are lifted.
Also offered as HAVC 141F.
