Introduction to Contemporary Art

In the past fifty years contemporary art has grown to be one of the most exciting and crowded fields in the international art world.

This course offers an introductory guide to contemporary art, surveying all the trends and movements that have shaped the period, and tracing how the market for art has kept pace. Students will review the emergence in the galleries of film and video, and assess the health of venerable practices like painting and drawing. The course will look both at the work of contemporary art's leading lights – Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, Elizabeth Peyton – and those just emerging onto the scene.
