The making and meaning of images has always been fundamental to understanding our past, 现在, 和未来的. With three distinct programs, the 部门 of 艺术 and 艺术历史 prepares students to be informed creators, 观众, and interpreters of art.
Areas of Study
Three programs, one department
Although digital technologies have transformed and accelerated the creation and dissemination of images, art has been central to the human experience for millennia.

UPCOMING EVENT
Day With(out) 艺术 2023: Everyone I Know Is Sick
December 1, 2023 12:00-1:00pm
赌博娱乐平台网址大全 University’s 部门 of 艺术 and 艺术历史 is proud to partner with 视觉教具 for Day With(out) 艺术 2023 by 现在ing Everyone I Know Is Sick, a program of five videos generating connections between HIV and other forms of illness and disability.
The program features newly commissioned work by Dorothy Cheung (Hong Kong), Hiura Fernandes & Lili Nascimento (巴西) 博戈麦斯 (Canada/Philippines), Dolissa Medina & 亚拿尼亚P. 的索里亚 (美国) 库尔特·韦斯顿 (美国).
Inspired by a statement from Cyrée Jarelle Johnson in the book Black Futures, Everyone I Know Is Sick examines how our society excludes disabled and sick people by upholding a false dichotomy of health and sickness. Inviting us to understand disability as a common experience rather than an exception to the norm, the program highlights a range of experiences spanning HIV, COVID, mental health, 和衰老. The commissioned artists foreground the knowledge and expertise of disabled and sick people in a world still grappling with multiple ongoing pandemics.
The 部门 of 艺术 and 艺术历史’s Issues in Contemporary 艺术 course is pleased to host this special screening in commemoration of World AIDS day.
视觉教具 is a New York-based non-profit that utilizes art to fight AIDS by provoking dialogue, supporting HIV+ artists, and preserving a legacy, because AIDS is not over.
