    Art Now offers student an introduction to the theories, practices, and debates around contemporary American and global art, 1960 to the present. Emphasis will be placed on art of the last decade. The approach to the material will be thematic rather than strictly chronological; course lectures and discussions will explore key themes, like memory and loss, and significant strategies, like repetition and appropriation, by giving each an art-historical context and then moving on to examine specific examples of recent American as well as global art.

    This course introduces the discipline of art history through a variety of cultural and geographic perspectives. Rather than offering a comprehensive narrative that attempts to document centuries of artistic production, we instead focus on key histories, sites, and objects that allow us to explore significant themes and concepts that have challenged cultures over time. We will explore defining issues such as the respective roles of tradition and innovation in the production and appreciation of art; the relation of art and visual culture to its broader intellectual and historical contexts; the role of display and exchange in creating meaning in art; and the changing concepts of the artist, style, and art itself.
