This class studies the intersection of anthropology, art and material culture focusing on Australian Aboriginal art.

Topics include the historical and cultural contexts of invention, production, marketing and appropriation of Aboriginal art. Students will conduct object-based research using the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection.
