Abstract:
<p> Since her <i>Untitled Film Stills</i> of the 1980s, Cindy Sherman has assumed the roles of artist and model to present a continuum of complex female personas that are embedded within our cultural unconscious. Though we are often reminded that her photographs are not self-portraits, Sherman continues to employ many stylistic conventions of portrait photography. I use this as a means to re-contextualize Sherman's practice within a critical study of portrait photography that will open up new possibilities in reading her work.

Abstract:
An urban community is a fusion of new and old that is constantly changing. We understand better the plight of a community through raising awareness of its unique history and visual character. Linking individual and community experiences offers an opportunity for dialogue, especially as long-time residents and their new neighbors learn about their different pasts and explore their common future. Community building happens from within, when many individuals sharing common values create positive change.

This dissertation focuses on the modern art of Pakistan from 1947-57, more specifically, the role of six important artists who founded the Lahore Art Circle (LAC) in 1952.

Framed within postcolonial theories and criticism, this study will address the role of modern art in developing new artistic sensibilities in the nation of Pakistan.

Hierarchical regression was used to determine if high school community type is an effective predictor of academic success when controlling for demographics, prior academic achievement, socioeconomic status, and current commitment or work habits for students entering Austin College in 1992,1993, and 1994 .

Sherman focused on the female types of Biblical mother and femme fatale, as well as wives and models. These types are defined in their relation to men and are depicted by men.

This occurs at the time an infant separates from its mother, acquires language and maps its own body.

In the 1990s internationally renowned Indian artist Sheela Gowda exchanged oil paint for cow-dung.

From a eurocentric art-historical perspective, adopting cow-dung to create art may seem like a radical move, but in India it is a material rich in multi layered histories and one resonating with ritual, economic and gendered subtexts and overtones.
