- Course Catalog Description:
- Learn about the contributions and legacies of some of the best-known and most revered figures of art history - Delacroix, Picasso, Warhol, etc. - as well as select mediums, genres, and artists often overlooked in traditional survey-type courses, such as photojournalism, protest art, and the architecture of Las Vegas casinos. Focusing, more specifically, on the themes of representation and identity, case studies, lectures, readings and class discussions illuminate how visual and material culture actively shaped - and reshaped - the boundaries and character of the modern world from the French Revolution to the Aids Crisis of the 80s and 90s. By contextualizing artists' responses to the radically new ideas, technologies, social dynamics, economic, and ecological realities of the 19th and 20th centuries, we will work toward developing a more comprehensive understanding of modern art and of our own positions in history.
