This course introduces students to the history and practice of writing about modern and contemporary art. Beginning with examples of historical criticism, we will then investigate more recent discussions around modern art, analyzing contemporary criticism's numerous forms in relation to its diverse venues (newspapers, magazines, and monographs, among other sites) and audiences. While reading comprises a significant portion of our curriculum, students will also regularly generate their own writings based on responses to objects in The Phillips Collection as well as to exhibitions in other museums, galleries, and collections in Washington and New York to be visited during the semester. Instructor: Dr. Suzanne Hudson. Enrollment is restricted to students accepted into the Illinois at the Phillips Collection program in Washington D.C. Course meets in Carriage House Conference Room, The Phillips Collection. Undergraduate Section. Graduates register for ARTH 546. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
49343	Lecture-Discussion	PU	2:00PM -3:50PM	M	Location Pending	Bandy, L Greet, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/20/09-05/06/09 Special Approval: Instructor Approval Required Credit: 3 hours Section Info: Topic: Transatlantic Encounters In Twentieth Century European And Latin American Art. Employing a center/periphery model to trace artistic innovation most often assumes Europe as the loci for modernist invention, while simultaneously undermining the originality of Latin American avant-gardes. This course proposes an alternative vision. In the first half of the twentieth-century, European and Latin American artists came into increased contact with international currents. Forms of intellectual diffusion such as manifestos, journals, extended international sojourns, interactions with visiting artists or intellectuals, the circulation of exhibitions, and the foundation of groups became sites of critical dialogue. This course explores these forms of intellectual diffusion through case studies of the artists who contributed to their formation, including such renowned figures as Diego Rivera, Alejandro Xul Solar, Emilio Pettoruti, Pedro Figari, Tarsila do Amaral, Amelia Pelaez, Joaqu�n Torres-Garc�a, and later Wifredo Lam and Frida Kahlo. Instructor: Dr. Michele Greet. Enrollment is restricted to students accepted into the Illinois at the Phillips Collection program in Washington D.C. Course meets in Carriage House Conference Room, The Phillips Collection. Undergraduate Section. Graduates register for ARTH 541. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
