This exhibit presents proposed monuments created by undergraduate students in a Fall 2017 Communication seminar entitled “Politics & Culture of Display” with Professor Brian Goldfarb.
During the course, students examined institutions and practices of public exhibition and display.  While focusing attention on critical analysis of practices of display as a site of research, the students also engaged in alternative approaches to curatorial practice and rethinking exhibition strategies.
The 10 pieces include:

  • Every 16 Minutes
  • Facing Diversity @ UCSD
  • Humble Beginnings, Brighter Futures
  • Loud Silence
  • Red | White
  • Skin & Remembrance
  • They Were a Threat
  • Tidal Wave Murals
  • Unnoticed
  • Who Rescued Who?
