About the Course

Modern Art & Ideas is designed for anyone interested in learning more about modern and contemporary art. You will look at art through a variety of themes, including Places and Spaces, Art and Identity, Transforming Everyday Objects, and Art and Society. Each week kicks off with a video that connects key works of art to the theme. You’ll also have access to interviews with artists, designers, and others who speak about their materials, processes, and sources of inspiration. Through the discussion forum prompts you will also have the opportunity to connect with other learners and explore how these themes resonate with you....

It has been a very wonderful course. I love the museum as a cultural space and now I love it more for its commitment to online education and giving us the opportunity to learn in different countries.

Really enjoyed this course! Well organized/developed, and even for a museum buff, like me, offered great ideas, and perspectives in ‘looking’ and ‘understanding’ art, and particular artist’s process.

Muy bueno en general, muy interesante y agradables los videos. Quizá un poco más de presencia humana, como las entrevistas, me hubiese gustado más.

I resisted the peer review at first but embraced the concept and now truly value applying what I learned and sharing my thoughts and expression.

FUN AND INTERESTING COURSE BUT I FOUND THE INSTRUCTIONS DIFFICULT AT TIMES TO UNDERSTAND AND THE ASSIGNMENTS BLOCKED BY COMPUTER DIFFICULTIES.

Course was fascinating but technology instructions could be clearer. Wasted a lot of time dealing with tech when I could have been learning.

Very good insight, my only recommendation would be to have it a bit less example-based, and some things that capture broader concepts

It was really fun and exciting for someone who had no background in the arts. It was also quite easy for me comprehend the ideas.

It was nice, but should be more informative, Even now I am struggling to interpret a Modern Artwork and Lifestyle of Artists.

Good idea to present a selecection of art and artists across 4 different themes instead of following a timeline approach.

I really enjoy peer review. I believe we learn from that but, I also think we need more instructor review.
