How Art Became Modern

Join Dr. Donald Oasis for an exploration of the genesis of Modern Art. During the transition to modern-ism, was the subject or the technique of prime importance? What were some of the different schools of art during this period? The class will highlight Robert Henri, teacher and mentor to most of the Ashcan school of art, and discuss the New York Armory Show of 1913.

Attention will also be given to the art of George Wesley Bellows. There will be a Bellows show starting November 15th at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Don Oasis and Cay Kuras of the Cultural Trip committee are hoping to offer a day trip there and will keep you updated.

Each lecture will be approximately 75 minutes in length. Handouts will be given before the start of each lecture. There will be no class Wednesday October 17th.
