Description: This course examines female-identifying painters, sculptors, performance artists and musicians from the Middle Ages through modern-day United States. Each week we will read and write about the work of a different artist and discuss their ongoing cultural impact. We will ask: How do we define a female artist? What is the role of gender, sexuality, race, or class in their artistic production?
