Section Information for Spring 2011
Prerequisite: 24 credits. This course surveys the history of formal and expressive innovation in American visual art created between 1900 and 1950. We will examine how American artists found new approaches to art making in response to changing conditions during the early years of the twentieth-century, World War I, the 1920s, the Great Depression, and World War II. In addition to studying painters and sculptors, we will examine the special contributions made by artists in such graphic media as drawing, printmaking, photography, and illustration. Field trips to local museums will be scheduled. Students will write about art works they have studied in person in local collections.Tags:
