ART 255 AG - Modern Art & Design Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 4 Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 4
This course offers an introduction to the lives and work of modern artists and designers in Europe and North America from the mid-nineteenth century through the 1970s. Organized as a chronological survey, this course focuses on the history of modern painting and design with some attention to sculpture, architecture, and modernist experiments in other media, and will emphasize the historical and cultural contexts in which this variety of art has been produced. We will also consider themes of international significance, including ways in which Japanese, Tahitian, African, and other non-Western sources substantially informed developments in modern art and design. We will explore how, in an increasingly globally interconnected world, the work of modern and postmodern artists and designers from various cultures and countries is shaped by cross-cultural influences and artistic conversations.
