ML 6810 - Topics in Peninsular&LA Art

Institution:

SUNY College at Old Westbury

Subject:

Modern Languages

Description:

This course will introduce students to the arts in Spain and Latin America through a comparative study of artistic movements on both sides of the Atlantic starting at the time of the conquest. Students will become familiarized with the major art movements that have shaped Hispanic art, from the flowering of the baroque, through the Neo-Classical, Romantic, Modernist, Surrealist, and Post-Modern aesthetic expressions. Such issues as the relationship of theater and poetry to painting in the Golden Age, or Goya's role in the shaping of the Romantic vision in literature, or the influence of literary movements on modern masters will be discussed. We will consider decorative arts, as well as painting and fine arts. Guest lectures and study trips to museums will be integrated into this course.
