Just over a century ago, artists in Europe began to jettison figurative painting in favor of abstraction. What motivated this shift, and how have subsequent artists and critics understood the social and aesthetic significance of abstract work? How have lines and color come to carry meanings beyond their immediate form? This seminar will explore these questions through attention to a range of abstract painting in both Europe and the US, as well as to critical discourses around it.
