ARTH 321 Global Contemp Art: 1980-Pres
This course will explore contemporary art from a global perspective. During the historical period surveyed in this course, the barriers of national boundaries and geographic distances have become increasingly diminished. Many contemporary artists work and exhibit internationally, often maintaining studios on several continents simultaneously. The works these artists produce are exhibited in international venues of art fairs and biennial/triennial exhibitions. Emphasis will be placed on artists from Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Prerequisites: ARTH 111 and ARTH 112, or instructor permission. Three credit hours.
