Given that this is an optional subject that is attended during the third or fourth year of the degree, the student must show a solvency
not only in the accomplishment of the written tests, but also in the oral tests. Likewise, the baggage of having attended previously two
courses of the degree, with subjects that go from the art of antiquity to the contemporary world, should allow the student to have a panoramic
knowledge of historical-artistic circumstances of different periods and the capacity for critical analysis to place the role of women as artists and 
as patrons in the history of art and in the historiography that this has produced.

The aim of this subject is to present a state on the role of women in relation to artistic practice in the Western world and reflect on different aspects
regarding the interpretation of the work, feminine artistic patronage or literature artistic produced by women, which has often been ignored by the
great compilations of sources and documents for the history of art. From the Middle Ages and the modern era, we will reach contemporaryity and the
postcolonial world, to see how today's artists face the challenges of our times.

In addition, beyond questions concerning the female gender, the relationship between art and the LGTBIQ+ environment will be analysed.

1. Theoretical approach to issues of art and gender.
										
											
										
											1.1. What do we talk about when we talk about gender?
										
											
										
											1.2. The birth of the feminist history of art
										
											
										
											1.3. Theoretical approaches to issues of art and gender
										
											
										
											  2. The gender and the history of the art: subjects of study
										
											
										
											2.1. The passage from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance: artistic praxis and feminine patronage. 

2.2. Beig a woman artist at the Baroque era. From the catholic courts to the Protestant world.
										
											
										
											2.3. Academy, Salonnières and illustrated: women and artistic practice in the eighteenth century.
										
											
										
											2.4. Women artists and the challenges of the contemporary world: from the nineteenth century to the avant-garde.
										
											
										
											2.5. The second half of the 20th century and the postcolonial world.
										
											
										
											2.6. Being a woman artist today. Other ways of "being" in the art world: gallery owners, merchants, museologists, historians and art critics.

3. Beyond gender. Art and LBTGIQ+ environment. 

The methodology during the course will be the following:
										
											
										
											- For the most part (80%) will consist of plenary or master sessions given by the teacher.
										
											
										
											-15% of the sessions will be dedicated to discuss works and any other subjects with the students. 
										
											
										
											-Un 5% of the sessions will consist of lectures by experts in some aspects of the art and gender studies.
										
											
										
											-The teacher reserves the possibility to propose a visit to any exhibition or space that may be useful for the development of the subject.

Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

Title	Weighting	Hours	ECTS	Learning Outcomes
Oral presentation in the classroom	20%	0	0	3, 4, 2, 10, 5, 1, 7, 8, 9, 11, 6
Second exam (Text comment)	30%	0	0	3, 4, 2, 10, 1, 9, 11, 6, 12
Written exam	50%	0	0	3, 4, 2, 10, 5, 1, 7, 8, 9, 11, 6

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

The evaluation will be carried out by means of the computation of several evidences:

-The first will be a written test which will be worth 50% of the final mark.

-The second will be another written test (text commentary) which will be worth 30% of the final mark.

-The third will be an oral presentation in class, worth 20% of the final mark.

Any irregularity that may lead to a significant variation of the grade in the evaluation process will result in a grade of 0, regardless of the disciplinary process that may be instituted. In the event of several irregularities occurring in the assessment of the same subject, the final mark for this will be 0.

If a test is graded with a 4 or less, no average will be taken with the other evidences.

The dates of the evaluation tests will be agreed upon at the beginning of the academic year between teachers and students, respecting the official calendar.

If the tests cannot be taken in person, their format will be adapted (maintaining the weighted assessment) to the possibilities offered by the UAB's virtual tools. Homework, activities and participation in clae will be done through forums, wikis and/or debates through Teams, etc. The teaching staff will ensure that students can access this process or offer them alternative tools that are within their reach.

At the time of the completion of each assessment activity, the teacher will inform the students (Moodle) of the procedure and the date of revision of the marks.

 

If the indicated evidences are not submitted, the grade will be Not Evaluable. 

SINGLE ASSESSMENT

The single assessment of this subject will be governed by the specific regulations approved by the UAB.

In order to obtain a favourable evaluation it is necessary to pass three evidences:

1. Written test of contents (50% of the final grade).

2. Second test (text commentary) which will account for 30% of the final mark.

3. Oral presentation (20% of the final mark).

The three tests will take place on the same date.

At the time of each assessment activity, the teacher will inform the students (Moodle) of the procedure and the date of revision of the marks.

 

RECOVERY

In order to participate in the recovery process, students must have been previously assessed in a set of activities, the weight of which must be equivalent to at least 2/3 of the total grade (CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT) or have handed in all the tests (SINGLE ASSESSMENT).

In order to participate in the recovery process, the student must have obtained a final average grade of at least 3.5.

For the single assessment, the same recovery system will be applied as for the continuous assessment.

 

ABOUT THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: All evidence will be conducted in the classroom, so the use of artificial intelligence in any form or tool is not allowed.
