CHR Visual Culture Studies Reading Group
Friday, October 17, 2025 1:00 PM EDT
Zoom
The Visual Culture Studies reading group is a collective of people interested in exploring classic and cutting-edge texts in visual media cultures. The texts we share speak to core debates in the humanities, and reflect a range of critical and theoretical perspectives, historical eras, and geographical foci including particular intersections with related scholarly fields like photography, critical race theory, postcolonial studies, Marxist theory, affect theory, gender and sexuality studies, spectatorship etc. The group meets monthly in an online setting. We invite your keen participation in these informal scholarly exchanges. We also welcome suggestions from group members about readings we could discuss.
