About this course:

The English art world was dominated by the constraints of the British Royal Academy and Victorian mores at the start of the 20th century. That ended abruptly in 1910 when Roger Fry introduced London to the European avant-garde with his exhibition, Manet and the Post-Impressionists. It was a public and critical shock, ushering in a drastic shift in artistic production. Beginning with the art of Bloomsbury members Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant, and Fry himself, this course covers the rise of modernism in England. We also explore the development of expressionist and independent movements, when artists such as Stanley Spencer, Lucian Freud, and Francis Bacon offer their own viewpoints and become some of the most famous British painters of modern art. This course uses the Hybrid format which allows students to participate remotely and/or in the classroom. This course will be recorded. Students will have access to videos for the duration of the course.
