Exhibitions and their related programs are the mechanism by which art is presented and interpreted to the public; they are the primary means by which these objects, projects, and events move from the private realm to the public sphere. They, therefore, exist in a place of continual and important tension, in which questions of history, scholarship, connoisseurship, education, preservation and administration all converge and become inseparable aspects of a single whole. The School's course offerings in the area of Exhibition Studies are therefore developed and sponsored by a variety of departments in the School, to reflect these converging perspectives. Please note that not all courses are offered every year and course instructors may change.
