Readings for September 13: AMERICAN PAINTING


The Readings:

You guys need to read the Art Since 1900, volume II, sections 1947a, 1947b, 1949, 1951, 1953, 1957, 1958, 1960b;
and from the packet: Ad Reinhardt, "Twelve Rules for a New Academy", Helen Frankethaler interview with H. Geldzahler, and the Joan Mitchell interview with Yves Michaud.

None of these readings are hard, or require much previous experience with the work, but you have to have the readings done to get what you need to out of the lecture and texts. I am going to show you how I want the seminar discussions to go, by going first. I will post comments on the blogspot, and you can post responses, then we will generate a discussion to start the class off with after the lecture.
