ART 181B SC - The Critical Landscape: Photography from the Sublime to the Anthropocene
This course examines shifting contexts for photographing the landscape as a means to express the economic and political issues imbued in humans’ relationship to our geography. In an era characterized by human and technological dominance over nature, it is critical to re-examine the relationship between photography and the environment. The course follows a loosely historical narrative, beginning with foundational texts on the Sublime, then considering cultural criticism and identity politics of landscape photography, and concluding with readings on the Anthropocene and the digital, networked landscape. Course material includes both readings and artist projects, and is the basis for students to develop their own photography project on a related topic.
Prerequisite(s): ART 145 SC or ART 147 SC
Course Credit: 1.0
