Course Content (Syllabus)
This course is concerned with the analysis of the visual art movements in Europe during the period from mid 18th to the end of the 19th centuries (Neoclassicism, Romanticism, Realism, Impressionism, Symbolism, Art Nouveau, post-impressionist movements). The course aims to address these distinctive artistic expressions by indicating their specific characteristics in conjunction to the particular social, economic and political circumstances. Moreover, the course intends to discuss the complexity of the social processes and their interconnections with the artistic and cultural perceptions and practices of the period which set the basis for the avant-gardes and contemporary art. The issues addressed include: * the ways art relates to the bourgeois and proletarian revolutions of that period, as well as to the formulation of the bourgeois national states * the shaping of the subject of the artist on the basis of the dominant ideas of emancipation, independence and autonomy of the individual * modernism as the expression of the new social conditions * from the institution of the academies to the constitution of art in its clash with the established artistic structures
