Considers art since 1960 by focusing on works we can study in person in College Park, Washington, Baltimore, and other locations nearby. Readings will address relevant art movements of the last sixty years; class time will be devoted largely to discussion in the presence of key works of art. Students will present works of art to the seminar in situ and will focus their research essays on one or more works they can study at length in person. The semester is organized under several themes pertaining to art we can see this semester.
