DIVST - 300 - General Course Description
Diversity Studies Studios introduces students to the interrelations between race/ethnicity, art-making, and design practices. These courses complement the Diversity Studies Seminars with their hands-on approach in which themes of ethnic identity are incorporated into studio and community practices.
Course Description: The course investigates how present-day Asian American artists contest societal assumptions and subvert stereotypes through socially engaged art practices and participation in local and global social movements. The students will create art projects with strong sociological and political bends, which address the undercurrent problems related to, but not limited to, class, gender, and ethnicity. Through virtual gallery/studio visits, reviews, online exchanges, and discussions with the members of cultural and artistic Asian American collectives, students will learn a critical and conceptual framework to examine the body of works of selected artists and will learn to understand the strategies of resistance and empowerment movements.
