ARHI 186Z PZ -When is Contemporary Art?

Institution: Pitzer

Description: Contemporary art of the late 20th and early 21st centuries makes a decisive break with the linear historical trajectories of art history and modernism, embodying what one critic has called the â€œasynchronous temporalitiesâ€ of a densely connected, yet unevenly resourced, global society. Focusing on current exhibitions, critical and theoretical writings, and selected projects by artists, this seminar will examine how artists, curators, and scholars engage with multiple pasts, uncertain futures, and the fraught present.

Prerequisite(s): See the current course schedule for registration restrictions.
