It must also be said however that all too often the Games are seen as a mere instrument, an event which enabled the city to expand its tourist capacity, a media event which placed Barcelona on the map and led to it becoming one of Europe’s, and therefore the world’s, main tourist destinations , as it is now, ten years later.

  • NYU Madrid ARTH-UA.9417 Art and Social Movements in Spain 1888- 1939
    NYU Madrid ARTH-UA.9417 Art and Social Movements in Spain 1888- 1939 Instructor Information ● Name: Julia Doménech ● Office hours: Tuesdays: 7.30-8.30pm ● Email address: [email protected] Course Description This survey examines the major artists and institutions that shaped the development of modern art in Spain from 1888, the date of Barcelona's Universal Exposition, to the end of the Spanish Civil War in 1939. The course takes as its working model the complex question of art's relation to social movements, including: the rising tides of cultural and political nationalism in the Basque and Catalan regions; the Colonial Disaster of 1898 and the question of national regeneration; the impact of fin-del-siglo anarchist and workers’ movements; the rise of authoritarian politics with the Dictatorship of Primo de Rivera; and the ideological struggles and social violence unleashed during the Spanish Civil War. Class sessions examine the complex roles played by some of Spain's most prominent artists and architects -- Antoni Gaudí, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Luis Buñuel, Josep Lluís Sert, and Salvador Dalí -- and their multivalent responses to modernization, political instability, and social praxis. ● Co-requisite or prerequisite: N/A ● Class meeting days and times: Tuesdays 4.30-7.20 pm Desired Outcomes Upon Completion of this Course, students will be able to: ● Providing students with a working knowledge of the development of modern art in Spain. Page 1 ● Exploring the complex and highly mediated relations that obtain between art and politics in relation to both progressive and conservative/reactionary social movements. Assessment Components Assignment 1: Group Presentations on a temporary exhibition.
