AH215/Lecture/01 - Critical Issues Modern Contemporary Art | Credits 3.00
AH215 examines decisive moments and issues from the history of art in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries to provide students with a critical understanding of emerging practices in modern and postmodern art. A wide range of media and artistic strategies is explored through thematic weekly topices that ground recent art in its historical, intellectual, political and social context, while also addressing important aspects of its curatorial display and reception. The course incorporates art criticism and critical theory to frame modern and postmodern art within broad aesthetic and intellectual traditions, ensuring that students can effectively discuss, critique and review contemporary art.
