ART 256 Approaches in Contemporary Photography
What exactly is a photograph? Is it light? Is it chemistry? Is it a moment of truth? Contemporary photographers use diverse strategies to challenge and question each aspect of the medium. Students explore a range of methods and styles from staged narratives to appropriation and conceptual ideas. Visiting artists and field trips to Boston's leading gallery and museums complement classroom discussions. 35mm and DSLR cameras available.
