Art, Money, and Labor 1830—Today

The aim of this course is to explore how the contradiction between artistic ethics and artistic value has been expressed over time, integrated as it was, into the polemic writings of artists and art critics, artistic studio practices, and the theoretical percepts of artistic production itself.

The Visual Culture of News, Past and Present

This class will explore the visual culture of news from Early Modernity to the present by examining the formats and media it has adopted, the ways it designs the page/pamphlet/screen, how it incorporates images, and the relationship of all of this to what the news reports.
