CORE 003 SC - The Arts: Visions of Humanity


This course utilizes visual and performing artworks to engage with contemporary themes and debates including justice, belief systems, equality, rights, freedom, autonomy, and tolerance. We will examine the work of twentieth/twenty-first century artists to illuminate concepts about human nature, human difference, and how, through their artistic creations, people contextualize themselves within their worlds (“worlds” meaning family, social circle, local/national environment, and place within the more global community) to create meaning and purpose in their lives. We will also explore how exposure to the arts can actually expand people’s awareness and understanding of issues and debates that affect all humankind.

Instructor: G. Abrams
