ARTH759I
Seminar in Twentieth-Century Art; Art and Climate Change
This seminar asks how we should rewrite the history of art now that we live in the era of climate change. We will consider such concepts as nature, civilization, and the human being as they have been constructed by culture and as they might be reconstructed for the future. We will studynot only landscape painting but all forms of art-making from the perspectives of environmental impact, sustainability, and mythmaking. Readings will be drawn from art history, ecocriticism, and from across environmental studies.
