This course explores the Art Institute of Chicago's Modern Wing, where students observe, discuss, and learn how to analyze a work of art. Lectures and discussions give students insight into the context of specific periods and the lives of the artists. Part of a series, this course focuses on the dawn of Modernism, exploring the work of important artists such as Cezanne, Picasso, Braque, Matisse, and others, and traces breakthrough developments in drawing, painting, collage, and sculpture. This course meets outside the gift shop at the benches, entering the museum from Michigan Avenue.
Art Survey at the AIC: Modernism and Beyond fulfills the Art History requirement for the Adult Continuing Education noncredit Drawing and Painting certificates.
