Description

Beginning with the liberation movements of the 1960s, course traces the work of queer and trans artists over the decades that followed. Students consider representations of queer life amid the Gay Liberation Movement of the 1970s, underground experimental film and New Queer Cinema, art of the AIDS crisis and the activist art collectives of ACT UP, and millennial artists working today across digital and fine arts. One of the driving questions of our explorations will be, how do these artists undo and rework concepts like identity, medium, and form? (Formerly Queer and Trans Art History Since Stonewall.)
