After successful completion of the course, students are able to talk about contemporary art, evaluate and analyze works of art, and put forward arguments in a thematically sound manner. You will receive a general, critical overview of modern and contemporary art.
Starting from the classical modern of the early 2oth century , this course sets out the development of fine arts - with focus on post-1945 art - up to the present. Discussion will focus on current art activity alongside avant-garde, the break caused by the Nazi dictatorship, the post-war period in America and Europe and postmodernism. Taking as examples the most important international art movements, a presentation will be made of the major artists, groups, art manifestos and theories. Other issues raised include the menchanisms and strategies of art market, exhibitions, the role of the public, artistic provocation and action in the social and political context, media and video art, etc.
