Hide-Academic Year 2021/2022
The course examines the key developments in Western art from 1848 to the outbreak of World War One in 1914. This period saw the beginnings of modern art, when traditional practices of making and viewing art were challenged. Industrialisation brought rapid social changes that impacted dramatically on how the world was experienced and understood. The module concentrates on Paris, the centre of the modern art world, which saw the development of realism, impressionism and cubism. Lectures also consider the impact of modernity and urbanisation on British, Austrian, German and Russian art. The influence of photography, non-western art and spiritualism is addressed. Lectures are supported by small-group tutorials that include a museum visit.
