Art History; Human Rights Photographers
have traditionally sought to depict the nature of the human experience while
working as historians, journalists, social crusaders, and artists, and this
tradition continues even today by photographers such as Sebastiao
Salgado, Eugene Richards, and Susan Meiselas. However, in the wake of much recent and
not-so-recent theoretical thought that questions old humanist assumptions of
"truth" and the privilege of the viewing subject, humanistic
documentary photography finds itself in a poststructuralist bind where any
photographic representation of the "human condition" is rendered
suspect -- dominating, controlling, and objectifying. The multifarious tradition of photography as
social documentation is examined from the early 19th century to the
present. Two exams,
writing assignments, and research paper.
No prerequisites. Class size: 22

Cross-listed: Art History Perhaps more than any
other subject genre in art, portraiture is remarkable for the complexity that lies
beneath its deceptively simple appearance. What is the object of a portrait?
What constitutes the nature of 'likeness' or resemblance--is it a matter of
recording the physical characteristics of a person, or rendering the
"inner person" in pictorial form? In addition to considering the
ontology of the portrait, this lecture course will trace historical
developments in portraiture in the 19th and 20th centuries. This period is a
crucial one in the history of portraiture, as it encompasses the advent of photography,
which ultimately challenged (and changed) the terms of portraiture for all
media. The interplay between photography and painting forms the core of the
material. Artists to be considered include Ingres, Nadar,
Hill and Adamson, van Gogh, Picasso, Cameron Man Ray, and Warhol. Prerequisite:
Photography 110. Class size: 15
