This course examines dance, theater, performance, and visual arts practices that are located within a feminist re-imagining of the body. Through a series of case studies drawn across geographic, historical, and cultural contexts, students engage with the varied histories, techniques, and creative processes of a feminist praxis. The course puts diverse art forms that investigate activism, gender equality, and feminist politics in dynamic conversation. Students consider different cultures of feminism, modes of feminist practice, and what it means to be a feminist spectator. Students cover a wide range of cultural, textual, and performative genres including plays, dance, and physical theater performances, films, graphic novels, and music videos.
