ANTH 095 PZ - Folk Arts in Cultural Context


This course will investigate the nature of folk arts, along with the roles of the folk artist in a variety of cultures. We will discuss various media of folk expression such as ceramics, basketry, and textiles; many of these are made by women, and gender issues will be central to discussion. The course will consider traditional cultural controls over techniques and designs, as well as the impact of outside influence such as tourist demands for “ethnic” arts. Enrollment is limited.

Instructor: S. Miller
Course Credit: 1.0
