Gender and Visual Representations
Affiliation
In this course students will learn to engage critically with past and contemporary modes of visual representations of gender. The course offers a comparative perspective by looking at the processes that shape meanings of gender in both Western and non-Western contexts. In doing so, the course aims to problematise the idea that the notion of gender carries universal meanings, and that they work in the same ways across different societies, cultures and temporalities.
