Institution:

Colorado College

Subject:

Description:

Considers the impact on art of expanding sea trade between Europe and East Asia in the early modern period. Begins by examining what goods went where, how increasingly global trade affected particular economies; how the East India companies operated, and what effects stepped up contact had stylistically and iconographically on art forms such as porcelain, prints and paintings. On a theoretical level, the course addresses "things foreign" as a means of asserting the artist's practice and identity. (Not offered 2008-09.) 1 unit.
