Learning outcomes
The course is giving a proper overview of art styles and figures of European (partly North American) visual arts from the end of the 19th century to the end of the World War II. It clarifies the principles of the Modesnism and Avantgard. The course presents the changes in art tendencies on a wide range of artists and their creation; the principles of styles are explained on the art work of crucial authors (painting, sculpture, graphics, architecture, applied arts) whose artistic developement is showed in wider time span, but the attention is also paid to a general row of tendencies. References to the important art works made by Czech artists are simultaneously placed to the world-wide overview. Attention is paid to a post-modern and post-productional appropriations of particular art works. A part of the course content are visits to exhibitions and permanent expositions of fundamental Czech and foreign galleries, and related visits to nonrecurring lectures of artists and art-history theoreticians.
