ARHS 3386 - Subcultures
Credits: 3
Studies the scope and nature of subcultural visual production, especially film, photography, illustration, and fashion and/or dress. Distinctions between the related concepts of subculture, counterculture, fan culture, club culture, neo-tribes, and “scenes” are of particular interest. Focuses on discussing problems surrounding the definition, intersection, and historical emergence of group identities within dominant cultures, as well as the subcultural expression of gender and sexual identity in relation to ethnicity, youth, and socioeconomic class. Related themes include the interaction of fashion and politics and the relationship between art and popular culture. The cultures studied run from the end of the 19th century to the present.
