Description: This seminar will explore the close relationship between mass culture and avant-garde art from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. In particular, we will examine how artists have both borrowed from and reacted against mass cultural forms--from comic books to television--as a means to renew their practice. Artists to be considered include Gustave Courbet, Pablo Picasso, Kurt Schwitters, Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman and others.
