Art History 340AM - After Impressionism

This seminar focuses on the works of Seurat, Gauguin, van Gogh, and Toulouse-Lautrec and the feverish debates about painting in the 1880s and 1890s that the previous generation of Impressionists had brought about. Although sometimes called 'Post-Impressionists,' the four were hardly a unified group, took distinct paths away from the main lines of avant-garde expression, and pursued projects that had limited allegiance to the ideas and practices of the others.

This course is open to Juniors and Seniors.; Prereq: 8 credits in art history.
