Course Description:
This interdisciplinary course develops and practices a critical way of looking at contemporary cultural practices. In these practices of production, dissemination and reception, masculinity and femininity are permanently (re)constructed, just as are concepts of class, race, ethnicity, and geopolitical location. The course studies cultural practices in various manifestations including popular culture (e.g. soaps, advertising, music icons), in addition to the cultural logic underlying art practice and visual ethnographic research. In all these sites old and new identities are being contested and reconstructed. The interaction between text and image is the main point of focus.
