HIRING | Fall 22 adjunct for “Arts, Politics, & Society”—300-level course at Marymount Manhattan College.  Meets *in person* Tuesdays (10am-12:51pm)

 

Course is offered by Dept. of Politics & Human Rights, but will be populated by majors/non-majors alike.  Catalogue description: “Art is often perceived to transcend culture, politics, and society. This course explores the political-social construction of the concept of art, art works, and art worlds across a variety of case-studies that may included African art, graffiti, counterculture and civil rights movements, contemporary crafts, and global art markets. Institutions, such as museums and galleries, are explored, as well as social roles, such as patron and maker, and the process of creativity itself with attention to race, ethnicity, gender and class hierarchies. Ultimately, through this class, students will discover the social-political nature and power of art and art worlds.”
