EN 2850 (EN 3850) - Modernism: Revolt and Discovery


Modernism is an elusive term difficult to define, and even more difficult to confine to a specific time in history. Yet it is universally accepted that some profound changes were already afoot around the turn of the 20th century in the related fields of art and literature, not to mention technology. We will examine what factors contributed to this upheaval of society and the arts. We will discuss what impact these changes have had on our world today. We will do this through carefully selected texts, art pieces, and music, from Avant‐garde, to Cubism, to Surrealism and beyond. (4 Credits)
