VPA 114W — Modern Art in the City
Modern Art in the City introduces students to a diverse range of twentieth and early twenty-first century visual art and architecture. Students will consider the crucial role of art and architecture in their respective historical and cultural contexts. Through museum visits, readings, writing assignments, web resources, and by exploring New York City itself as a case study, students will examine the history of modern art and the role of the city in the creation and reflection of our modern, global experiences.
