The course objective is to provide students with the historical and critical tools that will enable them to evaluate linguistic-material elements of innovation and change that characterize the artistic experiences of both modern (1st half of the 20th century) and contemporary art (2nd half of the 20th century) up until current times.
Books, records, video, fashion, gardening, web: the course intends to provide a thorough panorama of these "new" media utilized in contemporary art, and will explore how they became the base and wealth of numerous fields of artistic expression. Departing from an indispensable introduction to history and method, lessons will focus on the avant-garde movements of the 20th century with a pause to examine cornerstone elements of contemporary art from the 1950's up until today. Dialectics and shifts between art and technology, and "pure" art and "applied" art will also be highlighted.
