| Course Description | The course will be divided in three parts. In the first part, impressionist painting will be introduced with lectures, watching documentaries and reading. In the second, the emergence of the fashion phenomenon in Paris in the years 1860-1890 will be discussed with the help of lectures, film and reading. It is a fascinating period in which the idea of ‘being modern’ is central for the first time in history. In the third and last segment of the course, the focus will be on a few art works in which clothing plays a major role. Students will choose one of them and analyze it in such a way that all main aspects of the course are taken into account. |
