Seminar 4 - The Media and the Gaze

Seminar 4 - The Media and the Gaze

Todays session was again picking up on topics from the previous lecture.

some of the points raised in relation to the lecture were:


  • A lot of traditional paintings have a sexual undertone
  • Women like to look at themselves being looked at, which somewhat makes it okay for you to look at them
  • System of images, ideas of what beauty is and should look like?
  • Male orientated ideas of beauty
  • Naked or Nude?
  • Naked is to be yourself
  • Nude is to be seen - objectified
From this session we were set a task, which I have blogged as a separate post on this blog.
