This course traces the different paths of painting, sculpture, and photography in the U.S. and Western Europe between 1945 and 1989, between the end of World War II and the fall of the Berlin Wall. We will follow the 'crisis of modernism,' the rise of post-modernism, and the effects of geopolitical tension on the visual arts.
Course limited to sophomores, juniors and seniors
