This course will examine the status of art-historical knowledge and museology concerning the recent theoretical developments in the humanities and social sciences. It will explore the new critical methodologies of art-historical interpretation and art writing and will discuss the implications of queer studies, postsocialist studies, and new electronic media for the enrichment of college and university teaching and research. The regional cooperation of art theorists and practitioners as part of the transformative process in CEE will be addressed.
