Art, Power and Society [C2VPA]

Catalog description

Art and buildings today reflect the challenges of both our past and our present. This course asks pressing questions of select, major monuments: What power structures at the local, national and global levels define art and building in society? What images and works of architecture most reflect our current values? How can institutions promote positive change and a re-evaluation of the past towards greater understanding of the present? May be used for general education credit.
