Want an art history lesson without a big time commitment? Each Art Jolt is an information-packed course in just two hours!

Modernism? Postmodernism? We’ve heard the terms, but what do they really mean? Learn how these ideas affected the design of objects like chairs, lamps, and teapots. This class will spend time in European Design Since 1985: Shaping A New Century (page X). Led by Elizabeth Mix from Butler University, the first session will discuss Modernism and the second session will address Postmodernism. Take only one session or join us for both. No prior knowledge needed!
