Subject:

Description:

AH331 provides students with a thorough understanding of Surrealism in its varying visual, literary, and performative manifestations. Since Surrealism is firmly grounded in aspects of the human psyche, students will also gain an understanding of the science of psychoanalysis and its tenuous relationship with Surrealist art. During the semester, students are introduced to the origins and goals of the Surrealist aesthetic through art historical lectures. However, students will further their historical understanding of Surrealism through interactive discussions that debate the validity, limitations, and potential of this movement as a psycho-aesthetic phenomenon. Satisfies: Art History/Liberal Arts Elective requirement
