Basics of Modern Art: Impressionism and Moving through Post-Modernism
At 1pm February 1, Vittorio Colaizzi, WSU Professor of Art, will discuss the emergence and development of non-representation in Western art by starting with Impressionism and moving through Post-Modernism. He will suggest ways for the non-specialist to understand and enjoy abstraction. These include the growing desire for art's autonomous existence, the application of different standards than fidelity to likeness, and the comparison of different works of non-representational art, to emphasize the concept that art is a conversation conducted throughout history.
