About this course

Through a combination of printed and audiovisual materials this course will study the ways in which Latin America's public sphere becomes the meeting point of the political establishment as well as its counter culture. Centered in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries the course will pay special attention to today's renewed concerned for the relation between art and politics, and in particular to the idea of politics as representation in the Latin American context. How are those representations shaped by always changing social circumstances? What do they tell us about Latin America's past and present political realities? We will watch and analyze multimedia productions, read texts, and discuss visual representations from a variety of Latin American sources. Class and readings in English, audiovisual materials with English subtitles.
