About the conference: This is a free undergraduate and graduate student conference, which includes a selection of Art History paper presentations and artist talks. In order to bring awareness to Columbia College and the Art History department, the "Social, Class and Art" conference is being held in conjunction with the College Art Association conference. We will be selling conference catalogs to raise money for a Columbia scholarship specifically for Art History students. Keynote speaker: TBA!
“Social, Class and Art agenda: This conference serves as a platform to question how the history and economics of art markets, different sorts of arts education and various issues of social class have shaped ideas about the kind of art that is valued by public institutions. How do art forms differ based on types of education? How does arts education vary in relation to social dynamics? How does/do both art and arts education change with the economy? The goal of this conference is to explore ways in which art is both shaped by and interacts with the workings of society and social, cultural and economic power.
About the Art History Council: We are an undergraduate student organization at Columbia College Chicago. We aim to help art history students get the most of their education. We also encourage other students to pursue their interests in art and art history outside of the classroom. Participating in Art History Council events aid students in making the most out of their time at Columbia, as well as prepare them for graduate school or the professional world before them. Also, they provide great opportunities for students to network with other art history and art + design students.
