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....

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.

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.

Achei que teve muitos textos, mas, de modo geral, o curso é muito bom para iniciantes. Poderia ter mais legendas para português nos vídeos e possibilidade de tradução automática do navegador.

No interaction with people, no professional, no students (except the final revision and grading). Forum is nothing.

No interaction is very bad. Online can be substituted by a good book.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this course. It served a a good introductory course and I'd like to see more courses that delve sections of it and focus on that particular content.

It is good but I thought of it too short. I would have loved to see more artworks for every theme.

It was good, not a must but good enough to use your time on if you are an art lover.

Красиво обо всём рассказано, множество дополнительной информации, которую при желании можно изучить. После прохождения курса заражаешься энергией творчества. Хочется создать шедевр!

What you'll provide will be the mirror of what you'll get as global result. The course is a fine way to become connected to the modern art, especially into american modern art.

LOTS of content if one have a lot of time, one can dig really deep into the subject. Very enjoyable videos. Also the themes by which the images are sorted is quite unique.

This course was enjoyable. Content was good. It was a pretty easy pace, and most of the content was for thought provocation and reflection rather than "busy work."

I enjoyed taking this course, it’s great to start learning more about art history and it’s not hard at all. A lot of videos to see though, but it’s worth it!

I had so much fun taking this course. I learned much more about how to think and view art and appreciated how digestible the learning modules were. Thanks!

I really like this course. I just have one comment: The learners are so few that there're not anyone to grade my assignments to help me pass the class.

Nice easy going way of learning something interesting and new for non-art professionals. Easy and short lectures, good exercices if you have the time.

The course was an amazing experience that really changed my perspective on a lot of things but I would've preferred if it was a bit more interactive

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

Assignment submission is difficult and certificate is not available although I got an email but don't know how to download or receive certificate.

As a total new beginner, this course is really great and interesting. I've learn a lot about modern art in general and work of art in particular.

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.

This is a pretty good course. Lots of quality videos taken from museum materials. Feels somewhat bitty, but I did learn a number of things

Easy course with all the link and references. Would like to attempt something more in depth. Good course to update your knowledge on art.

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.
