  • FAA 2080: Visual Art Concepts 1

    3.00 Credits
    University of Cincinnati-Main Campus

    This is the first of a two-part seminar class surveying ideas about art practice from the last two hundred and fifty years. This first seminar addresses concepts current between 1750 and 1918. These dates open with the Enlightenment and conclude with the end of the First World War, and primarily concern the cultural periods known as Modern, Modernity, and Modernism. The class will require students to evaluate concepts like beauty, revolution, and avant-garde in relation to the texts in which such terms originate. Such concepts will also be considered in relation to works of art, literature, and historical events of the time. Students will gain a fuller understanding of the cultural periods under review in this seminar. Lectures and discussions will be reviewing these concepts in relation to broader themes like Self, Form, and Beauty, that remain as relevant to contemporary art as they have been for historical work. Because this class presupposes continuity between Freshman and Sophomore seminars, students will be expected in this seminar to deepen their understanding of any such themes that may have been introduced in the first year.
