ART HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY (L01)  (Dept. Info) Arts & Sciences  (Policies) SP2017 L01 Art-Arch 1095 Freshman Seminar: Art in the Golden Age of Venice 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: The art and architecture of Venice are inextricably linked to the city's distinct socio-political structure, cultural past and geography. This freshman seminar will consider the arts in Renaissance Venice within the city's unique context. Exploring the influence of the "Myth of Venice", we will examine the styles of painting, sculpture and architecture that were specific to Venice - and very different from contemporaneous developments in Rome or Florence. We will also study the unique physical characteristics of Venice, its economy and society, its political and religious life and cultural culture. We'll also learn about its food and music while we study the magnificent works of its most celebrated artists, Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese, to name a few. The course will address issues such as the family workshop, the introduction of oil paint, the role of Antiquity in a city without ancient ruins, domesticity and the ceiling painting. From the private patronage of its confraternities, or scuole, to public programs sponsored by the Great Council, the course will examine the reflections of the "ideal state" in the art and architecture of the Serenissima, the most serene Republic.

L01 Art-Arch 119 Freshman Seminar: From Hercules to Harry Potter: Picturing Heroes in Ancient Greece, Rome, & Beyond 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: Societal celebration of influential people, mythical or real, raises them above others in public esteem and endows them with a high degree of fame, honor, and symbolic significance. Such heroic figures are often elevated and admired not only for their individual accomplishments, but also for the moral and ethical values and virtues that they embody as examples to others. Yet, the functions of heroes (and anti-heroes) may be controversial and their meanings contested. An exploration of the role of images and other forms of visual culture in the conception of heroism, and by extension virtue (character traits that are in some deep or fundamental way connected with being a morally good or admirable person), will present the opportunity to examine, among others, the following questions: What is the role of the visual arts in establishing and sustaining heroic status through which societies define and articulate their values? How do images shape an understanding of heroic significance? What are some of the religious and political uses of heroic images? What is the relationship between the historical person (if there is one) and the imaginative construction of the hero, or put another way, the relationship between history and memory? How do images of heroes shape the narratives of communal identity of which they are a part? Together we will first explore objects and texts from ancient Greece and Rome that address these questions from a variety of thematic and methodological perspectives. We will then examine the survival and transformation of ancient conceptions of the hero in representations of America's founding fathers, American frontiersmen, comic book superheroes, and the characters of the Harry Potter Series.

Using objects, photographs, paintings and drawings, film, songs and dance, we will explore the ways in which artists and explorers responded to Oceanic culture while learning about the rich and diverse cultures of Pacific peoples. This is a two-way analysis, however, as we will further consider the ways in which Pacific Islanders have responded to Western enforced social change, their collecting of Pacific material culture, and documentation of their culture, both historically and in contemporary society. As such, we will examine and explore a variety of media to facilitate our considerations of Western and Pacific views of each other. The Oceanic collection of The Saint Louis Art Museum will help ground our understandings of Pacific art and culture, supported by Oceanic related works in the archives and other museum departments. Works by artists including Henri Matisse, Paul Gauguin, Emile Nolde, Pablo Picasso, and John la Farge will be examined to understand the influence of Pacific art in the early twentieth century. Films will include "Whale Rider" and "Mutiny on the Bounty."

Focus will be on the history and theories of modernism and its international legacies, and the relationship of the visual arts, architecture and visual culture more generally to the social, cultural and political contexts of the modern era. While the precise topics covered may vary from one instructor to another, foundational movements and trends to be discussed will typically include Beaux-Arts style, the Arts and Crafts Movement, Impressionism, Symbolism, Art Nouveau, Cubism, Dada, Surrealism, Purism, Art Deco, the Bauhaus, the International Style, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, Minimalism and Post-Modernism. Cross-currents in various media will be emphasized as we seek to understand the origins and complexity of modern visual forms in relation to political and cultural history and to critical theory. Students will engage a wide range of readings in historical sources, theories composed by artists, architects and designers, critical responses to the arts, and secondary critical literature.

L01 Art-Arch 260 Introduction to the Arts of Oceania 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: Covering one third of the earth's surface, the Pacific Ocean is home to hundreds of different island groups and cultures. The diversity of these islands and their peoples has resulted in an astounding array of cultural traditions, languages, art forms and material culture. This lecture course offers an introduction to the arts of Oceania, which includes Polynesia, Melanesia, Micronesia and Australia. We will consider the initial settlement of the Pacific followed by the Western "discovery" of these islands. Art forms and cultural practices from Polynesia and Micronesia will be considered, followed by Melanesia, and finally Australia. Each section will survey artistic and cultural practices of the material culture of island groups. Thematic considerations will include carving traditions, body ornamentation/wrapping, animal iconography, trade and exchange of objects, warfare, funerary/ mortuary displays, manifestations of power and religious/ritual objects and displays.

If no one asks me, I know what it is. If I wish to explain it to him who asks, I do not know." Writing in the fourth century, Augustine grappled with the fact that although we experience time in our daily lives, it is frustratingly difficult to conceptualize. In this course we will explore how artists of the Late Middle Ages and Renaissance not only conceptualized time but also gave it visual, material form. Looking at everything from manuscripts and cathedral sculpture to maps and frescoed ceilings, we will see how art could mark the present, rewrite the past, and shape the future. In the last weeks of the course, we will turn our attention to new methodologies that challenge our understanding of the art historical past.

Students will come to understand the ways photographic practices shape public perceptions of national identity, ethnicity and gender, nature, democratic selves, and a host of other concerns. We will discuss famous practitioners such as Matthew Brady, Jacob Riis, Lewis Hine, Walker Evans, and Robert Frank. We consider not only the social and public uses of the medium through such episodes as the New Deal/FSA and photojournalism, but also the private explorations of 'fine art' photographers, and the everyday practices of the snapshot. Prereqs: Intro to Western (L01 112) or Intro to Modern (211), or one course in American History, American Cultural Studies, or permission of the instructor.

L01 Art-Arch 4000 Topics in Art History and Archaeology: Rethinking Matisse 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: L01.4000, Rethinking Matisse, will be the designated Travel Seminar in the Department of Art History and Archaeology in Spring 2017. Read below for details. An intensive study of work in all media by this influential modern artist. Henri Matisse (1869-1954) is best known for his painting and sculpture, the traditional media of the French beaux-arts, often overshadowing significant work in book design, tapestry, ceramic murals, stained glass and even architecture and fashion design. To reconsider Matisse's place in the history of art in the 20th century, we will place special emphasis on the artist's contribution to modern trends in domestic and institutional decoration. His long career spanned the political schisms of the Dreyfus era in the 1890s to the efforts by France in the 1950s to recover its position in culture and politics after the Second World War, and we will also consider his relationship to the momentous political, and economic changes in his time. Related topics to be addressed: the role of his writings within comtemporary artistic discourse; the critical reception of Matisse's art in his lifetime; the historiography of modern art and his changing place in it; the market for avant-garde art in 20th century; Matisse's relationship to other artists, such as the Fauves, Picasso and other Cubists, and the conservative artists of the "return to order" in the 1920s. Prereqs: L01 113 or L01 215; one 300-level course in Art History preferred; or permission of instructor. From March 10-13, the class will make a trip to the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Barnes Foundation, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Montclair Art Museum in Montclair, NJ, for the special exhibition Matisse and American Art, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, including an appointment in MoMA's Drawings and Prints Study Center. In four days we will see the three most important collections of Matisse's work in the US, plus an unprecedented exhibition that will not travel elsewhere. The Department of Art History and Archaeology will pay for all intercity transportation with the group, hotels (double rooms), museum admission fees, and some meals with the group. Each student will be responsible for most of their meals. We will leave St. Louis for Baltimore the morning of Friday, March 10 and return to St. Louis from New York the evening of Monday, March 13. We'll stay in Philadelphia two nights and New York City one night. So our trip will take place over the first few days and nights of Spring Break. The trip is a course requirement. Since the research paper requirement will involve artworks that we will see, it is imperative that everyone in the class visit these collections. Please contact the instructor, Professor John Klein, at jrklein@wustl.edu to express your interest and to make an appointment to discuss the course.

L01 Art-Arch 4045 Beyond Painting: Innovation in Prints and Sculpture in Early Modern Europe 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: Prints and sculpture are frequently overlooked in the study of early modern European art, yet the issues they raise are critical to our understanding of the period. Both categories, too often seen as secondary to painting, entail frequently complex technical and intellectual innovations that were fundamental to their time. This course will focus on these two important media in order to offer a fuller and richer picture of how artists of the Renaissance and baroque periods reinterpreted and expanded their visual vocabularies in response to, and in participation with, changing technologies and ideologies. Beyond Painting is based on direct interaction with works of art with the aim of facilitating enhanced looking and evaluation skills essential to the study of art history. Held at the Saint Louis Art Museum, each session will focus on the Museum's collection as well as the objects in the exhibition "Learning to See: Renaissance and Baroque Masterworks from the Phoebe Dent Weil and Mark S. Weil Collection." Prerequisites: Intro to Western Art (L01 113) or Intro to Modern Art (L01 215); one 300-level course in Art History preferred; or permission of instructor.

Over the past decade the question of distributive justice has taken on new urgency in our nation. This seminar will look at an earlier period in the nation's history-the 1930s, from the stock market crash of 1929 to the beginning of World War II-when the ideal of cultural democracy was put into practice on a variety of fronts, from dance to the fine arts to public murals and the collecting and inventorying of the nation's material and cultural legacies. We will also consider the possibilities and limits of political art, the impact of John Dewey on future generations of artists and culture-makers; the relationship between leftist politics and modernism; regionalism and internationalism; debates over the nature of documentary photography, and efforts to create a 'useable past.' Prerequisite, 300-level course in European or American twentieth century art or cultural history, or permission of the instructor.

L01 Art-Arch 4817 Paris ca. 1900: Art, Leisure and Spectacle 3.0 Units Details Save  Cancel   My Note:   Description: Paris at the turn of the twentieth century was a vibrant international center for the development of the visual arts, including painting, photography, film, and the graphic arts, particularly in the exploding domains of posters and illustrated journals. In this seminar, we study the period 1880 to 1910, and examine how diverse modes of urban visuality were at the heart of the development of French modern art. The place of graphic arts in promoting popular entertainments such as ballet, opera, and café concerts, is considered. Another focus is the powerful role of Parisian satirical journals and caricature in debating matters of class, race and national identity. We examine diverse modes of displaying and selling the visual arts, particularly in the spheres of World's Fairs, annual salons, and in the avant-garde spaces of gallery and café exhibitions. Artists of central concern include Lautrec, Cheret, Mucha, Degas, Pissarro, the Nabis, Vallotton, and early filmmakers such as the Lumière brothers and Méliès. Special focus will be given to works on view in an exhibition on the subject to be held at The Kemper Art Museum in spring 2017. Pre-requisites: L01 215 or permission of instructor; one 300-level course in modern art history, or a course in modern French history or literature preferred.

We will focus on the tensions between the global and the local, as well what it means for an artist to be national or international. We will also consider the impact of neoliberal economic policies on art production and the art market, as well as role museums play in this international context. Finally, we will consider the Internet and social networks as globalizing influences that affect the production and distribution of contemporary art. Prerequisites: Intro to Western Art (L01 113) or Intro to Modern Art (L01 215); one 300-level course in Art History preferred; or permission of instructor.

The diversity of these islands and their peoples has resulted in an astounding array of cultural traditions, languages, art forms and material culture. This lecture course offers an introduction to the arts of Oceania, which includes Polynesia, Melanesia, Micronesia and Australia. We will consider the initial settlement of the Pacific followed by the Western "discovery" of these islands. Art forms and cultural practices from Polynesia and Micronesia will be considered, followed by Melanesia, and finally Australia. Each section will survey artistic and cultural practices of the material culture of island groups. Thematic considerations will include carving traditions, body ornamentation/wrapping, animal iconography, trade and exchange of objects, warfare, funerary/ mortuary displays, manifestations of power and religious/ritual objects and displays. No prerequisites.

Students will come to understand the ways photographic practices shape public perceptions of national identity, ethnicity and gender, nature, democratic selves, and a host of other concerns. We will discuss famous practitioners such as Matthew Brady, Jacob Riis, Lewis Hine, Walker Evans, and Robert Frank. We consider not only the social and public uses of the medium through such episodes as the New Deal/FSA and photojournalism, but also the private explorations of 'fine art' photographers, and the everyday practices of the snapshot.
