Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

Students are introduced to a sequence of historical events that have had the most lasting effect on 20th century illustration. These events affect the look of illustration and provide a place to begin discussion. The effects on surrealism, on the one hand, and social realism, on the other represent a swing of the pendulum of narrative and representational art. Studio work incorporates ideas embodied in these and other contemporary art trends. Lectures and illustrated talks compare contemporary art and illustration history. Credit 3
