Spring 2025: Exploring Modern and Contemporary Art: Materials, Forms, and Concepts (현대 및 동시대 미술 탐구: 재료, 형태, 개념)
About the Course:
This semester’s course, titled “Exploring Modern and Contemporary Art: Materials, Forms, and Concepts”, will explore the diverse and boundary-pushing practices of modern and contemporary artists, focusing on their innovative use of materials, conceptual approaches, and how they challenge and redefine the boundaries of art. Each week, we examine influential artists whose work responds to cultural, political, and environmental themes.
현대 및 동시대 미술가들의 다양한 경계를 허물고 혁신적인 재료 사용, 개념적 접근 방식, 그리고 미술의 경계를 재정의하는 방식을 탐구합니다. 문화적, 정치적, 환경적 주제에 반응하는 영향력 있는 아티스트들의 작품을 살펴봅니다.
Registration is open through December 31st, 2024. Tuition for the semester is $400 for the 20-week course. Questions and inquiries can be directed to info@ahlfoundation.org.
