Unravel the mystery of contemporary art, the power of images and the messages they convey. Learn about the context in which art is created. As the French Urban Artist, JR asks, Can Art Change the World? In this course we will look at the purpose of art, who is it made for and why? We will look at the intent of the artists, the materials they choose and places art is installed. Get an inside look into contemporary art as we visit artist studios, exciting exhibitions at the Institute of Contemporary Art, the MIT List Gallery, MFA, SOWA Galleries and public art installations.
