American Art: 1945-1980
An investigation of the leading figures and movements in American modernism. We will consider developments in painting and sculpture from the Armory Show to the present, although special emphasis will be placed on the period between 1945 and 1980. Attention will be given to the theoretical issues that have influenced such directions as abstract expressionism, color field painting, pop art, assemblage, minimal art, photo- and super-realism, conceptual art, and other recent developments. 3 hrs. lect.
