The class, which is co-taught by Amy Powell, curator of modern and contemporary art at the Krannert Art Museum (KAM) and Terri Weissman, associate professor of contemporary art, takes KAM’s photography collection as its point of departure and primary object of study. Classes will periodically meet in the museum and students will have regular access to the collection as they engage in their research and writing. The class will focus on collaborative research and a class project (e.g., a written collection history or exhibition proposal) may replace individual research papers. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
