Art in the Time of Coronavirus

ANT 360: Anthropology of Global Health

Short Intro

The pandemic that is spreading rampantly around the globe has caused the temporary closure of many art institutions, including art museums, concert halls, theatres, art galleries, etc. Despite hitting the financial stability of the art market, this sudden disappearance of art in real life also, surprisingly, created more digital possibilities for viewing and creating artworks in this new era. In this project, I will use information gathered from social media and news to discuss the role of art in this global COVID-19 response and its effect on people’s mental health and social wellbeing. I will also analyze the relationship between body, mind, emotion, and community from an anthropological perspective, using the “three bodies” idea of Nancy Scheper-Hughes and Margaret Lock.
