This seminar course celebrates the achievements of LGBTQ+ individuals in the visual arts, from Renaissance to contemporary.

Through weekly image presentations, readings, and films, students gain a broad understanding of how LGBTQ+ identity—both hidden and “out”—has shaped aesthetic experiences. Readings include Susan Sontag’s “Notes on Camp” and “Post Cards from America: X-Rays from Hell” by David Wojnarowicz. Please note, course may include adult content.
