About the Course

What is contemporary art? In this course, you’ll consider this question through works of art made since 1980. Hear directly from artists, architects, and designers from around the globe about their creative processes, materials, and inspiration. You’ll look at 3D–printed glass and fiber sculptures, performances in a factory and a museum, portraits (including those made with artificial intelligence) and interventions into television and video games. Not only will you develop a deeper understanding of how artists work today, you’ll also explore some of their approaches to the pressing issues and questions of our time. By taking this course, you’ll build skills for looking at contemporary art wherever you encounter it and make connections to your own life or creative practice....

Before I took this course, I didn't really understand what contemporary art was. Although short and not at all comprehensive, this course is eye-opening.

I discovered a lot of unfamiliar artists and topic such as border. It was worth taking this. I'm glad that I was able to absorb at this online class because it's my first time online course.

El arte contemporaneo es un conjunto de ideas que partimos de ellas para formar un todo o algo logico e interesante en este mundo cambiante, tecnologia, colores, formas y texturas creando un objeto con un objetivo que llame la atencion y nos atrape en su voragine novedosa y creativa!

Le cours a répondu en partie seulement à mes questions. J'ai trouvé les vidéos et témoignages de certains artistes très intéressants. J'ai apprécié les quizz. Cependant, je me demande si j'aurais appris davantage via un documentaire sur l'art disponible sur Youtube ou Netflix

Buenos ejemplos, te da un panorama general de lo que se está haciendo, pero deja de lado los antecedentes y bases teóricas que son necesarios para entender el arte contemporáneo como movimiento artístico.

I like what's in the course, but I don't like the fact that they don't censor the swear words, and there are dirty terms in here.

I hated it. Sorry, it is either this course that is poorly made or this art is just plain and boring. I do not see creativity or inventivenes, I see "blah blah blah I'm artist blah blah blah" It lacks character, vitality, anything that makes art - art
