ART-3450: African American Assemblage Art

This course explores the black assemblage movement, its origins, ethos and aesthetic, its practitioners and their work, in the context of the recent socio-political history of the black community of Los Angeles. The approach is sociological, i.e. art understood as an expression of societal values, consciousness, and structures. Through critical appraisals of oral historical, primary and secondary sources, viewing imagery, discussion, various projects, and visits to artists’ studios and locations in the black community, students will explore this world emotionally and analytically, within and outside the classroom.
