FA 311<br />
Women in the Visual Arts:<br />
1960’s - Today<br />
3 credits (AS)<br />
The development <strong>of</strong> modern and<br />
contemporary art has been dominated<br />
<strong>by</strong> fundamental, revolutionary<br />
movements and varied themes, both<br />
theoretical and practical. This course<br />
looks at a number <strong>of</strong> the important<br />
achievements <strong>of</strong> individual women<br />
artists, collaborative groups, art<br />
historians, and theorists who have and<br />
continue to present enormous shifts in<br />
aesthetic practice and cultural politics.<br />
A survey through slides, film,<br />
theoretical readings, and discussion will<br />
announce the diverse voices <strong>of</strong> women<br />
artists from the Americas, Europe,<br />
Asia, and Africa from modernism<br />
through today‘s post-modernist age. It<br />
is intended that students will emerge<br />
from the course with a clearer<br />
understanding <strong>of</strong> theoretical writings<br />
and documents from the 60‘s forward,<br />
and the contributions connected with<br />
independent women artists,<br />
collaborative groups and projects.<br />
Images and ideas will announce how a<br />
number <strong>of</strong> artists responded to issues<br />
in mainstream culture. Through<br />
intense examination, critical<br />
interrogation, and the production <strong>of</strong><br />
forms, these artists not only resonated<br />
a shaking up <strong>of</strong> art and culture, but also<br />
helped define it. (Offered on a rotating<br />
basis)<br />

Cinema Studies<br />
3 credits (AS)<br />
A critical study <strong>of</strong> cinema as an evolving<br />
art form, this course concentrates on<br />
film as cultural text. Students view and<br />
discuss films and prepare written<br />
analyses on the artistic technique and<br />
cultural impact <strong>of</strong> film as a narrative<br />
form. (Offered alternate spring terms)<br />

skills, as well as to further improve<br />
their communication skills in<br />
performance. Class includes lecture and<br />
workshop. (Offered fall and spring<br />
