Transfers ToUC and CSUCal-GETC Area 3A · IGETC Area 3A · CSU GE Area C1DescriptionThis honors course, intended for students in the Honors Transfer Program, is an introductory survey of American Art and visual culture from its pre-colonial past to the contemporary era with a focus on the social, political, economic, and philosophical conditions that have constructed the visualization of diverse American identities. American Art will be examined in relation to issues of representation and marginalization. Both art and artists will be studied within contexts that consider constructions of race, class, hybridity, gender, and sexuality and how these identifications factor into the construction of the canon, or mainstream, of the art world and the (in)visibility of diverse artists within art history. This course is enriched through extensive, rigorous reading, writing, and research assignments. Note: Students may take either Art History 208 or Art History 208H. Duplicate credit will not be awarded for Art History 208 and Art History 208H.Usually HeldTue 11:10am–12:35pm
