Art Nouveau and Japonisme - 28729 - ARTH 2096 - 702 | ||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Art Nouveau was more than just a design style; it was an avant-garde movement rooted in socialist theories and philosophical concepts. We will examine the stylistic elements of Art Nouveau in a variety of examples, including architecture, posters, jewelry, and film. Our study of Japonisme will reveal how the ideologies that informed the Art Nouveau movement found expression in the adaptation of Eastern aesthetics. We will explore regional stylistic variations of Art Nouveau in movements across Europe and the U.S. in the late 19th/early 20th century. This Writing Intensive, hybrid course will meet once a week in person, and online writing activities will culminate in a research paper that will allow students to investigate a particular aspect of Art Nouveau more thoroughly.

Postwar Art, 1950 - 1980 - 36950 - ARTH 2096 - 705 | ||||||||||||||
In this course students will cover significant artists and artistic practices that came into being during between 1950-1980 in the U.S., Europe, and additional examples from Latin America and Asia. Through readings, class discussions, and writing assignments we will explore the declining popularity of Abstract Expressionism through Neo-Dada and Pop, Minimalism and Conceptual Art, the boom of Feminist and Performance art, and culminating in the culture wars of the ‘80s and artists’ exploration of their sexual-, ethic-, and cultural-identities. This lecture-based course will place these artists and trends within their historical and social frameworks as we move out of reactions to World War II into the turbulent years of the Vietnam War era, Civil rights and Feminist movements, until end of the Cold War and the fall of the Soviet Union. A mandatory field trips to museum exhibitions will place these discussions in material terms, encouraging close observation and considerations of artistic practices and unconventional media.

Eurasia: Connecting European and Asian Art and Culture - 37157 - ARTH 2096 - 801 | ||||||||||||||
CL: As St 2096 (803). Notes: An extra media fee of 4,400 yen is required. Field trips are mandatory in this class. Topical Section Description: Even though we are living in a globalizing world, our common knowledge of cultures other than our own is limited. Since every culture has its own uniqueness, it can often cause misunderstandings during interpretation. Located on the eastern side of Eurasia, Japan can be seen as a reflection of Europe itself in many ways. By comparing the cultures and historical incidents of these parts of Eurasia, they echo resounding similarities. This class connects European and Asian cultures into the singular continental culture of Eurasia - through cross cultural comparisons of significant moments in history and places of significance. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to compare the social and historical contexts of Europe and Japan, while being able to create your own critical analysis’s on this area of study. Although, not required, it is recommended to take “Japanese Culture” course before taking this course.
