AR 249 - 20th Century Art in the United States

Institution:

Carlow University

Subject:

Art

Description:

From the Ashcan School and Regionalism to Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art, the United States was the nexus of the international art world in the 20th century. This course surveys the major art historical movements in America in the 20th century. In this course, we place primary emphasis on understanding these movements in art, music, and film. Key issues in our study will be related to the study of gender, race, and class in America and classroom discussions and readings will focus on these themes. Because many of these same movements dovetailed with a growing and changing museum and gallery system in the United States, we will also engage with issues in museum studies and display
