HART 521 Art in the age of Revolt: Early Modernity
3 Credits
This course aims to consider what has counted
as modern in art since --and before-- the advent
of the avant-garde in Europe in the
mid-nineteenth century. The changing relations
between notions of modernity and the aims
of artists and their works is reviewed. The significance
of movements in art, such as romanticism,
realism, impressionism, and post-impressionism,
towards the development of `modern art' is assessed.
Students may expect to consider works by
key artists such as Delacroix, Ingres, Turner,
Constable, Courbet, Manet, Monet, Cezanne,
Gauguin, Seurat, Van Gogh. Notions of modernity
and modernism in art will be examined as part
of a consideration of the aims of modern art,
social, political or otherwise.
