Students will trace the transatlantic origins of the different art forms, finding their continuation in all aspects of African American visual culture, including more recent influences of European expat communities and the global art world. Including both a historic survey giving a broad overview and individual artist case studies will allow for more in-depth investigations. Emphasis will be placed on honing information literacy, writing, and discussion skills. Even years.
