ART 295-01 - Special Topic: Visualizing Freedom and Abolition in the New World - A Mixed Media Installation.

2 credits (Fall)
This course will explore ideas and images of freedom and abolition from the Caribbean to the Midwestern frontier, resulting in a permanent installation for the new HSSC building. Students will research images regarding the trans-Atlantic slave trade, plantation economies and the abolitionist movement, and will collaborate with artist Edouard Duval-Carrie in a mixed media artwork made from epoxy resin in molds. Each “block” will use images to tell a different history regarding freedom and abolition. 

Prerequisite: Second-year standing.
Note: Dates September 18 to September 27 and October 23 to November 1. Short course deadlines apply.
Instructor: Duvall
