This is an art history, upper-division course on curatorial practice today. The class will include hands-on experiences with exhibition installations at the Gordon Parks Gallery, combined with learning about contemporary topics in museums and galleries. Students will critically examine diverse curatorial practices and consider how the roles of museums, galleries, curators, and artists are evolving to be relevant and community-facing. Students will get the opportunity to work directly with professional artists and curators in the community.
