What aspect of ‘Modern’ art do you find the most intriguing/interesting and why? (for the purpose of this task, let’s limit this definition to cover anything from the 1890s to the 1950s). Choose any art piece (any medium, any region/location in the world) from the modern period (use Smarthistory and/or Heilbrunn timeline for reference). Beyond citing information found in articles and any random links you come across in Smarthistory or the Heilbrunn Timeline, discuss your chosen work of art in relation to concepts we have covered in lecture/tutorial for Week 8. Your discussion might include, but is not limited to, ‘modern’ forms and/or techniques; gender and modernism; cultural meanings of the ‘modern’ and how these relate to the piece you have chosen, and concepts of power and/or privilege. Note: You should select a work that I have not covered in lecture.
