FYSP 123 - Representation and Reality in Contemporary Culture


4 HU, WRi
Second Semester. Images pervade our environment to a degree never experienced before. We are inundated by representations in the form of photography, film, television, the internet, and advertising. Yet few of us recognize the effects of such representations on our environment, our culture, or ourselves. Through analyses of various forms of the visual, we examine the largely concealed and naturalized assumptions underlying our cultural values and beliefs as they are produced and reinforced in the visual representations that surround us.
