Seminar
Modern Art and Modernity in Europe and the Americas
Max Boersma
Kommentar
This seminar examines the dynamic relationships between modern art and modernity in Europe and the Americas. Spanning roughly 1850 to 1970, the course frames “modernity” not as a single condition or project, but instead as the fraught convergence of numerous epistemic, technical, material, and cultural processes, forces likewise inextricable from Western imperialism and colonialism. Weekly readings will probe how such transformations shaped aesthetic practices and their larger social realities. Each session will focus on a single discrete process—such as “extraction,” “racialization,” “standardization,” “migration,” or “creolization”—as a means of reading specific works of art as well as broader conditions of experience, power, and subjectivity. Encompassing both canonical and lesser-known artists, this seminar ultimately aims to equip students with a deeper understanding of modern art and its forms of critique, reflection, and complicity within modernity.
