ARTS 348 - Modern Art on Display, 1850-1950 (AH)


This course explores the history of group exhibitions of modern art and related debates on the nature of display. Using visual, historical, and theoretical materials to study select case studies from the late 19th to the mid-20th centuries, the course will focus on how the history of art display impacts our understanding of modernism today, studying installations as creations that manifest ideologies and aesthetics. By analyzing a selection of test cases, students will trace important changes in curatorial practices and assess art exhibitions as a form of discourse.
