CONTEMPORARY ART 101
THE ART 101 CLASS FOR ADULTS

For those who want to explore concepts in contemporary art, the museum offers the Contemporary Art 101 program. Contemporary Art 101 examines a range of issues through a look at artists, movements, and styles in major art centers around the world. After just completing a summer program looking at abstract painting and conceptual art, we look forward to offering new perspectives on appropriation in the fall.

Contemporary Art 101: Appropriation
Thursday, October 30
6:00 – 8:00 pm, $10 program fee/ FREE to members

Does painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa create a new masterpiece? How is a photograph of a Marlboro ad different from the original Marlboro ad? Chief Curator Anthony Huberman leads a conversation about art and appropriation, mass-media images, plagiarism, and the idea of originality and authorship.
