Course Description: Since its beginnings in the mid-19th century, photography has dramatically changed our world and how we see that world. In this course, students will develop familiarity with the complex and contradictory genres of photographic images: between documentary and discourse; between mass culture and avant-garde. This course covers work from Europe and the United States from the mid-nineteenth century to present. Particular emphasis will be given to Italian photography.
