Description:

[Renumbered from FA 420] This course focuses upon the major American painters, sculptors, and architects since the colonial era with emphasis on their artistic output and its relation to evolving American society and other forms of American culture such as literature and music. One of the essential issues of the course is to determine what, if anything, is uniquely American about this art. An interdisciplinary approach is taken. Slide lectures, reading, and writing assignments are supplemented by field trips, guest lectures, and student presentations. The rich cultural heritage of New York City is extensively drawn upon. Prerequisite: FA 1402. 3 credits. Every semester; day.
