Description: This course introduces the major developments, key figures and significant works of late Modernism. Covering a period from roughly 1945-Present, we will trace modernism's unfolding in the avant-garde practices of the 2nd half of the 20th century. Beginning with the shift from Paris to New York as the cultural center of the avant-garde, the rise of Abstract Expressionism & its divided legacies. For each lecture, Graduate Students will be assigned additional readings. They will write an annotated bibliography of all the readings to be turned in at the end of the semester. We will meet for an additional two or three weeks to discuss the interpretive and methodological problems and ideas associated with the readings. Graduate students will be expected to complete all the requirements of the class in addition to writing a substantial research paper due at the end of the semester. Mutually Exclusive: Cannot register for HART 562 if student has credit for HART 362.
