ARHI 189A PO: Post-photography Representation

The development of digital technologies has transformed our understanding of representation. Central to this transformation has been a shift away from the semiotic analysis of imagery towards a more phenomenological understanding of the image. This course returns to the “post-photography” debates of the later 1980s to trace the development of these ideas and their impact on contemporary art practices. Instructor: M. Shurkus [Art History]
