  • ART 250: Art of the Twentieth Century

    3.00 Credits
    University of Massachusetts-Boston

    An analysis of the art of the twentieth century involves fundamental issues of form and content shared by all the arts. Taking a threefold approach-formal, critical, and historical-this course examines the development of modern painting, sculpture, and architecture as well as the ascendant art forms of photography, video, and performance. It analyzes general theories and specific works in detail. Through class discussions, reading assignments, papers, and field trips, the student learns that the formal problems posed by twentieth century art are closely related to those in literature, music, and theater, for they are problems of structure and definition, harmony and rhythm, diction and coherence. The student thus develops critical capabilities that he or she can apply to works by Picasso or Eliot, Matisse or Ravel.Distribution I Area: The Arts. 3 Lect Hrs, 3 Credits Mr Tucker
