This course will examine the intersections between mass culture and the artistic movements in the first decades of the 20th century which came to be known as the "historical avant-garde." class discussions will focus on the question of aesthetic autonomy versus the social/political engagement of art. We will investigate the way technologies of modern communication and mass media which made art available to a larger public at the beginning of the century - photographic reproduction, cinema, and, more recently, television - have transformed the production and reception of art.

This course examines art of the past four decades in the United States, Europe, and Asia.

This course will examine representations of the city in 20th and 21st century art and film. From the science fiction presentiments of Metropolis, Alphaville, and Blade Runner, to the suburban dystopia of American Beauty, the rhapsodic romanticism of Manhattan, and the engulfing megalopolis of Salaam Bombay, the city has figured as a powerful force and subject within film. So, too, artists have tackled the city not only as subject matter but as an arena in which to act. from the frenetic manifestations of the Futurists to the pointed interventions of Krzysztof Wodiczko, Jenny Holzer, and Robert Irwin, artists have moved into the real space of the world.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines representations of race and ethnicity in art and film. Focusing on work of the 20th and 21st century in the United States, students will consider the ways that theoretical perspectives and lived experience are articulated in art and film.

This course focuses on the role of the artist, outside of the gallery/museum context. Tangential to this investigation will be discussions that engage social, political, and urban issues relevant to this expanded public context. Traditional approaches of enhancement and commemoration will be examined in light of more temporal and critical methodologies. historical examples will be studied and discussed, including the Soviet Constructivist experiments, the Situationists, Conceptual art, and more recent interventionist strategies.
