The syllabus, detailed description of the paper, and readings are also posted to Desire2Learn. *Every class is recorded Course Description This course will address the relationships between gender and the visual arts, with an emphasis on art and culture since World War II. This class explores the role of the visual in constructing ideas of “woman” and how women artists have addressed these constructions in their works and in their lives. Students will critically examine the ways Western culture has defined art and artists in gendered terms and will extend this study to contemporary art practice with attention to intersectionality and difference. Through weekly readings, class discussions, written assignments, and oral presentations, students will consider how gender is relevant to the creation and study of art and culture. Important to this course are the relationships between art and critical/literary theory, including feminism (obviously), Marxism, psychoanalysis, post-modernism, and theories of race and gender, all of which radically altered the perception as well as practice of art over the past century and a half.

    STAFF REPORT DATE: July 17, 2013 TO: Honorable Members of the Visual Arts Committee FROM: Zoë Taleporos RE: Artist Selection Panelists Our current procedure for selecting arts professionals for public art selection panels is to seek approval from the Arts Commission of a group of individuals on a per-project basis. The intent was to match the expertise of arts professionals with each particular public art opportunity. The proposed procedural change to selecting arts professionals as panelists is to create one large pool with an array of individuals with varying cultural emphasis from a range of art institutions. Public Art staff will draw from this pool for all selection panels in the Fiscal Year 2013/14. This will eliminate the need to repeatedly agenize the approval of panelists on the Visual Arts Committee (VAC) agenda and will reduce staff administration time. If Public Art Staff would like to add an arts professional to the pool, s/he may do so at any time. Additional arts professionals will presented to the VAC for approval. Bios of Arts Professionals for Panelist Pool FY 2013/14 Regina Almaguer Regina Almaguer heads a Public Art Consulting Service based in Orinda, California.

Organized by SFMOMA Curator of Media Arts Rudolf Frieling, this large thematic presentation gathers more than 70 works by some 50 individual artists and collectives, and will feature projects both on-site and online, as well as several new pieces commissioned specifically for the exhibition. From early performance-based and conceptual art to online works rooted in the multiuser dynamics of Web 2.0 platforms, The Art of Participation reflects on the confluence of audience interaction, utopian Erwin Wurm, One Minute Sculptures politics, and mass media, and reclaims the museum as a space for two- (detail), 1997; photo: Kuzuyuki Matsumoto; © 2008 Artists Rights Society way exchange between artists and viewers.

Directed by Lynn Hershman Leeson Theatrical Booking Contact: Clemence Taillandier, Zeitgeist Films 212-274-1989 x18 • [email protected] Festival Booking & Marketing Contact: Nadja Tennstedt, Zeitgeist Films 212-274-1989 x15 • [email protected] A ZEITGEIST FILMS RELEASE !WOMEN ART REVOLUTION (!W.A.R.) SHORT SYNOPSIS An entertaining and revelatory “secret history” of Feminist Art, !Women Art Revolution deftly illuminates this under-explored movement through conversations, observations, archival footage and works of visionary artists, historians, curators and critics. Starting from its roots in 1960s antiwar and civil rights protests, the film details major developments in womenʼs art through the 1970s and explores how the tenacity and courage of these pioneering artists resulted in what is now widely regarded as the most significant art movement of the late 20th century. For more than forty years, filmmaker and artist Lynn Hershman Leeson (Teknolust, Strange Culture) has collected a plethora of interviews with her contemporaries—and shaped them into an intimate portrayal of their fight to break down barriers facing women both in the art world and society at large. With a rousing score by Sleater-Kinneyʼs Carrie Brownstein, !W.A.R. features Miranda July, The Guerilla Girls, Yvonne Rainer, Judy Chicago, Marina Abramovic, Yoko Ono, Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger, B. Ruby Rich, Ingrid Sischy, Carolee Schneemann, Miriam Schapiro, Marcia Tucker and countless other groundbreaking figures. !WOMEN ART REVOLUTION (!W.A.R.) LONG SYNOPSIS Artist and filmmaker Lynn Hershman Leesonʼs documentary is more than four decades in the making. !Women Art Revolution (!W.A.R.) draws from hundreds of hours of in-the- moment interviews with her contemporaries—visionary artists, historians, curators and critics—to present an intimate portrayal of their fight to break down barriers facing women both in the art world and society at large.
