Course Description

This course examines the impact of the display of different photographic practices around the world beginning in the 1990s on the heretofore universalizing discourse around photography and modernism. It will read certain canonical texts of photo criticism in counterpoint with research on African photography. We will also consider how the display of these photographs has heightened ethical questions around the competing rights of photographers and their subjects. Who has influenced whom?
