ARTH 253 - Latinx Art: Past and Futures

FC ARHU CD
4 credits
In the past thirty years, Latinx art has emerged as a distinct field of study within Art History, absorbing a diverse group of artists working across styles into one category. This survey pairs an overview of Latinx art from 1945 through the present with the theories and arguments that serve as the foundation for the field. Guiding questions are: what are the possibilities and limitations of Latinx art? What role does aesthetics play? What is the future of the field? In particular, we will explore the role of Queer, Black, Indigenous, and feminist histories in the development of Latinx art. Field trips required for this course.
Prerequisites & Notes: 100-level course in art history recommended but not required.
Does this course require off campus field trips? Yes

This course is cross-listed with HISP 253
