LACS 78 Twentieth Century Art from Latin America

This course surveys art produced by Latin Americans during the 20th century through case studies of the major figures and movements in the cosmopolitan centers of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico, Uruguay, and the U. S. We treat Latin America as a geopolitical construct rather than an essential unity, and examine how national identity, racial formation, class difference, gender inequality, political struggle, and state violence have been addressed by artists from the region and in diaspora.
