Join me for a discussion on the history, architecture, and ethical questions regarding zoos from an anthropocentric (human- centered) point of view! We will touch on animal rights, but the class will mainly focus on animal exhibits in context with colonialism and humanitarianism, as well as similarities between animal enclosures and human residential projects. It will be wild!

This course will cover a wide range of topics related to the color spectrum, including the etymology of color names, the meanings and implications of certain colors throughout history, the political associations with color, and the use of color as an artistic medium and design strategy. You'll feel blue if you miss this course!
