ARTH 4604 - Contemporary Art


Credits: 3

This course will study recent literature in American Art/ Visual Culture and related social and cultural history from 1880 to present day. The course will address works in historical, institutional, and methodological contexts. As a case study rather than a survey seminar, there are several overlapping themes: tradition and realism, versus abstract modernism in representation, and as social issues of gender, class, domesticity, labor, and consumer culture.
